Continuous Monitoring
Continuous monitoring identifies problems before failures occur in order to prevent costly production stops. Typical equipment that is monitored includes high- and low voltage installations, turbines, compressors, and other electrical and mechanical equipment.
Proper condition monitoring with continuous thermal cameras can be an efficient and effective way to maintain uptime. To learn more about condition monitoring, please visit this page.

Improving Manufacturing Efficiency and Product Quality
Visual inspections aren't enough to ensure high-quality, defect-free production that's delivered on time. Thermal imaging cameras can be added throughout the production line to monitor packaging seals, bottle fills, drying time, and more, as well as detect potential mechanical problems before they cause a production shutdown.

Maintaining Gas Plant and Flare Stack Safety
Flare stacks are used in many industries to burn off unwanted waste gas byproducts, or flammable gases released by pressure relief valves during unplanned over-pressuring of plant equipment. Thermal imaging cameras are ideal monitoring tools because they allow full-time remote monitoring in virtually any weather. In addition, thermal imaging cameras avoid many of the technical and cost-related problems associated with other technologies such as ultraviolet (UV) flame detectors, flame ionization spectrometers, thermocouples, and pyrometers.

Ensuring Substation Uptime
Electric power utilities today are faced with an aging infrastructure, increasing risk of blackouts and brownouts as well as security threats. Unplanned maintenance can be expensive in the best-case scenarios and catastrophic in the worst. With FLIR thermal imaging cameras and condition monitoring software, impending equipment failures and security breaches can be detected anytime, day or night, from a remote monitoring location.

Avoiding Catastrophic Failure
Steel mill ladles have limited lives. As their refractory linings wear or break due to shock, the outer part of a ladle can be exposed to excessive temperatures. If not caught in time, the result can be ladle disintegration and a molten metal breakout, threatening the lives of workers and destroying equipment. FLIR thermal imaging camera systems monitor ladles in real time and warn of a breakout before it happens.

24/7 Electrical Installation Monitoring
Some critical electrical and mechanical installations in manufacturing companies and utilities are monitored 24/7 with a thermal imaging camera. Heat buildup indicates poor equipment health and possible impending failure. A fixed-mounted thermal imaging camera gives you the advantage, so you don’t need to rely on periodic inspections. Alarms can be set to go off once a temperature threshold is exceeded.
