During exploitation of different devices we can often face faults, which detected and diagnosed early allow to save time and money spent on expensive repairs. Many damages could be avoided if the faults, not visible with bare eye, were detected – overheating devices and installations, exceeded temperatures of objects, which are not allowed to be touched during exploitation.
Likewise location of heat leakages,
connected with buildings insulation and failures made during construction works
– example thermal bridges – can bring savings. This proves that investment in a
device, which allows to see the invisible is worth being made.
In many cases, performing of just one thermogram allows to evaluate if there is a problem with device or installation. It can be checked quickly if repair or construction was made properly and thanks to early evaluation of devices, maintenance can be planned.
Thermovision can be used in different
fields – most often in power industry and civil engineering. The popularity of
thermal imagers made them inexpensive and easy-accessible.
Thermal imager, Sonel KT-160 , is fully radiometric device – it registers temperature of image’s each point (without approximation). Used Infra Fusion technology allows to observe and register thermal images, real images or combination of both, which helps to locate measurement place. User can choose one of 8 color palettes for the best temperature projection. The image of resolution 160x120 is displayed on large 3,6-inch LCD screen.
