Thermographic Testing Vibrotech Reliability Services Limited What is Thermography? Infra Red Thermography is a technique for producing a visible image of invisible (to our eyes) infra red radiation emitted by objects due to their thermal conditions Thermography Objectives of Test To detect hot or cold area’s To determine absolute temperature To view Thermal profiles To detect temperature loss Thermography Infra Red is part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum It travels in straight lines at the speed of light The useful part is divided between Short and Long wavelengths Use of the correct wavelength is essential Test Equipment Hand held portable camera Battery Powered Operating at correct wavelength Range…..-20°c to +1500°c Sensitivity…..0.1°c at 30°c Real time display Image Recording capability Why Thermography? Non Contact Rapid Scanning Data can be recorded in differing formats Images produced are comprehensive reliable Is there a viable alternative? Principles of Operation Object radiates infra red radiation Temperature difference Differences are detected and displayed visually Emissivity values must be observed Advantages Non Contact Non Intrusive Can work at a distance Fast and Reliable Portable Convincing Results Limitations Non Intrinsically safe There must be a temperature difference for certain surveys Operator experience is essential Filters may be needed for certain applications Sensitivity and Resolution reduce with distance and angle of view Electrical Switch Gear Fuse boxes Cable runs Electrical connectors Insulation Transformers Junction Box Fan Fuse Box Electrical Connections Used for the detection of; Corroded connections Slack / loose connectors Connectors at too high an operating temperature Hot spots Transformers Electrical connections Insulators Thermal profile Operating temperature Liquid Level Refractory Linings Torpedo ladles Boilers Furnaces Exhausts Ducting Kilns Rotary Kiln - Access Door Kiln - Refractory Lining Torpedo La
