Thermography
is the use of an infrared imaging and measurement camera to "see" and "measure" thermal energy emitted
from an object. Thermal, or infrared energy, is light that is not visible because its wavelength is too long to be detected
by the human eye; it's the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we perceive as heat. Unlike visible light, in the
infrared world, everything with a temperature above absolute zero emits heat. Even very cold objects, like ice cubes, emit
infrared. The higher the object's temperature, the greater the IR radiation emitted. Infrared allows us to see what our
eyes cannot. Our infrared thermography camera produces images of invisible infrared or "heat" radiation and provide
precise non-contact temperature measurement capabilities. Our camera is a great tool to pinpoint moisture within the wall
without destroying dry sections. Nearly everything gets hot before it fails, making our infrared camera an
extremely cost-effective, valuable diagnostic tool in many diverse applications. And as industry strives to improve manufacturing
efficiencies, manage energy, improve product quality, and enhance worker safety, new applications for our infrared camera
continually emerges.
How Our Camera Can Serve Your Needs...
Moisture and Mold Detection The pictures below show hidden moisture
from a third story washing machine leak. Normal photography seen with the naked eye allows the moisture intrusion to
go undetected; our infrared thermal imaging camera looks within the wall and pinpoints moisture and mold problems quickly
without expensive wall destruction. Notice also that the wall studs and insulation are very visible. This is a
great way to check the structural integrity and energy efficiency of the dwelling.
The pictures below show moisture intrusion within the insulation
layer of a warehouse roof. Without infrared imaging, the extent of the damage would not have been known without dismantling
the roof piece by piece.
Electrical Systems Diagnostics
Everyone
worries about their home catching fire from a faulty electrical circuit. Infrared imaging allows us to quickly look
at the breaker box, wiring inside of the walls, outlets and appliances to determine if overheating is taking place.
Energy Loss Surveys (Coming Soon...)
By using our infrared thermal imaging camera, a home or building's heating and cooling loss can be accurately
determined. Our energy report will be able to identify missing insulation, faulty windows, leaking HVAC ductwork and
energy loss through cracks, voids and gaps. With global warming and energy consumption of fossil fuels becoming the
number one issue in the world, our system will be able to reduce your energy bill up to 30% if problems exist.
