Qeraton Arabia provides infrared thermography services to detect electrical faults and thermal anomalies in electrical systems. Their non-contact thermography allows inspections to be done while equipment is under normal loads, avoiding costly shutdowns. They use high resolution cameras to identify issues like loose connections, overloads, or defective equipment. Qeraton Arabia will perform infrared scans, provide a written report of any thermal anomalies found, and recommend repairs to improve safety and reduce operating costs.
1. Qeraton Arabia – Infrared Thermography
Services
Introduction
Using cutting-edge infrared detection technology,
Qeraton Arabia Thermographers rapidly and
accurately pinpoint the thermal anomalies that
threaten the safety and reliability of your electrical
systems. Because thermography is non-contact and
non-destructive, there is no need to interrupt
electricity for costly shutdowns. Our thermographers
inspect your equipment under normal loads and
operating conditions, so you don’t have to disrupt
your service schedules. By performing an infrared scan
of your electrical system in ‘real time’ our inspections
can help you understand the practical impacts of
emerging component problems.
An infrared electrical scan can substantially improve profitability and reduce your operating, testing and
maintenance costs by:
Quickly pinpointing problems
Reducing downtime and equipment damage
Preventing catastrophic failures
Establishing repair priorities
Improving preventive maintenance efficiency
Testing under load to avoid costly shutdowns
2. Electrical Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging can find electrical faults where wiring is
over-heating. It can also provide an excellent picture of
problem areas in overheated equipment and appliances.
We use thermal imaging to detect abnormal temperature
variations that cause common electrical faults, such as:
Loose/deteriorated connections
Overloads
Imbalanced loads
Open circuits
Inductive heating
Defective equipment
Faulty wiring
Scope of Work
Qeraton Arabia will perform infrared thermal imaging inspections on electrical panels and equipment to
identify any thermal anomalies, electrical hot spots, overloaded and improper wiring. We will provide a
written report outlining the current condition and performance of the equipment. We will also
recommend areas where improvements or additional repairs/maintenance should be carried out.
Qeraton Arabia will submit one customized and detailed report including digital images, thermal images,
hard/soft copies of the reports and recommendations to resolve any anomalies identified.
Any equipment showing faults will be marked with professional labels on the equipment indicating the
nature of the fault. This will occur at the time of the initial scan and will include the company name,
date, problem and resolution.
3. Equipment to be used
Qeraton Arabia uses the latest, leading edge infrared
technology from Flir Systems to provide integrated capture
reporting and repository solutions. Our infrared inspections are
performed using state-of-the-art, fully-radiometric, FLIR P660
thermal imaging camera with minimum of 640 x 480
resolutions, which provides superior imaging quality and
accurate evaluation of your thermal situations.
