Benefits of Infrared Inspections:

Potential to lower facility insurance premiums. Economic gains result for both the facility and the insurance company in cases of fire, casualty loss, and liability.
Reliability of the facility power distribution system will be increased.
Production loss due to unplanned outage can be minimized.
Costs of emergency repairs, in terms of overtime labor, higher priced replacement parts and emergency parts shipping, are reduced.
Scheduled shutdown time can be reduced for electrical maintenance since problems are pinpointed prior to shutdown. Replacements parts, if required, can be ordered to be ready and waiting.
With effective preventative maintenance, equipment life will be extended, delaying capital expenditures for equipment replacement.
Prior to a new facility/system start-up, an infrared inspection can locate potential problems and help to “shake down” the electrical system.
