5. THERMAL: Relating to or associated with heat
WHAT IS THERMAL IMAGE CAMERA?
IMAGE: Visual representation of any thing that produced on a surface
CAMERA: Using lens to focus on a light particles/light spectrum(INFRARED) onto
a screen.
THERMAL IMAGE CAMERA now onwards “T.I.C.” is a special
electronic camera of seeing object emitting infrared radiation
patterns using infrared technology.

What is Infrared?
Having wavelengths longer than visible normal light but shorter than radio waves
only rays inside visible light
can only seen by human eye

HOW TIC CAN HELP US? - BRIEFLY
PHASE TERMINALS

In a routine visual inspection one cannot determine the healtiness of
terimals
May be loose connection
May be part broken
May be over loaded
May be insulation weakening
May be component internal over temeperature
In a result break down may occur
TIC highlights bright with temperature higher by differentiating with
surrounding
TIC differentiates other two terinals “R” Phase got brihter because of

MOTOR
Thermal images of electric motors reveal their surface temperature, a key component of their operating condition
Overheating is the result of one of
the following
•Inadequate airflow
•An overload
•Unbalanced voltage
•Impending bearing failure
•Insulation failure
•Shaft misalignment

TRANSFORMER
HIGHER RATED TRANSFORMERS
•OIL TANK
•RADIATORS
•COOLING FANS
•BUSHINGS
•TERMINALS
•ELBOWS
Transformers and components
overheat due to:
•Loose or contaminated
connections
•Unbalance
•Overloading
•Harmonic distortion
•Restricted oil flow in cooling
tubes
•Failed cooling fans/pumps
•Insulation failure

IR WINDOWS - Safe Monitoring
IR WINDOW - TIC Can View in a safe, time less & easy mode of monitoring
IN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM VOLTAGE IS THE MAIN PERCEPTION
a. Low voltage panels - open door
b. From Medium voltage Metal Clad onwards panels require an IR window

REDUCTION IN BREAKDOWN TIME
• Studies by the Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP), estimate a
properly functioning predictive maintenance can provide a savings of 30% to
40% over corrective maintenance.
• Infrared thermography cameras are the first line of defense in a predictive
maintenance program.
