NDT - Infrared Thermography
The Objective
Enormous losses in the industrial sector are caused by malfunctions which could be prevented. Although damages and degradation of isolation materials and other materials are not visible, in most cases they can be solved through preventive measures. The temperature of an object is often a sufficient indicator of the performance of the installation. SGS can offer you inspection technology to make temperature differences visible.
The Solution
Infrared Thermography is a fast NDT inspection method which does not influence the process and maps the temperature differences of any object in a range from
-50ºC to 1500ºC.
Instead of detecting the temperature point by point, our camera is able to detect the temperature across a complete surface. This gives an excellent image of local temperature differences.
Application Areas
SGS Industrial Services examines whole installations with this inspection technique, both in overview as well as in detail. Constipations, isolation becoming damp, cold bridges and overheating are mapped flawlessly without having an effect on the process. Using our mobile equipment we are always able to find a sufficient position, on the ground or on steps, in order to make recordings.
The technology is used on many applications, housing, offices, paintings, electrical installations of low and high voltage, mechanical installations (brakes, pumps etc) and of course also in the process industry to find leakages, blockages, degraded integrity, insulation and much more.
Why SGS?
SGS has a worldwide track record, with proven performance on new construction, pipeline installation, in-service inspection and expansion projects, as the total NDT solution provider in more than 30 countries worldwide.
Our service offering varies from the conventional NDT techniques to advanced methods like Risk Based Inspections, Time of Flight Diffraction, Corroscan, Positive Material Identification, Magnetic Flux Leakage, ACFM, Leak Testing, Electromagnetic Testing, IRIS, Digital Radiography etc.
