electrical thermal imaging

Using a thermal imaging camera to outline electronic components enhances electronic troubleshooting. The new FLIR E4 has proved to be a hot seller for PASS Ltd, the independent test equipment professionals. One particularly enthusiastic electronics engineer uses it to monitor the temperature of circuit boards for potential faults, by finding where heat sources are on a board. Continue reading →

It has been reported recently that industrial technicians of the future should use the most advanced equipment available. Continue reading →

Thermal imaging was once highly expensive and only used exclusively. However, things have changed considerably and now thermal imaging is much more affordable and used for a wide variety of applications. Thermal imaging manufacturers have realised that the possibilities for thermography applications is vast and are now producing cameras with different specifications for different types of thermal work.

At the Fiat Car factory in Italy they are using thermal imaging cameras for predictive maintenance purposes, in order to predict electrical and mechanical faults. The factory produces 250,000 cars per year, meaning that it is important for the system of car production to work efficiently without any possible faults. Continue reading →

Electricity is usually taken for granted in our society. However, the electrical grid has to have regular inspections of the network’s components to ensure a continuous supply of electricity. Thermal imaging cameras are increasingly being used to see the components state of operation. E.ON Bayern, a German power and gas utility company are the main power supplier in central Europe and have started to use thermal imaging cameras as part of their preventative maintenance programme.
