A simple and cheap solution to afford to do thermography without opening cabinet doors by AXU
Advantages of using thermal imagers to routinely check temperatures in plants and locate hot-spots that may lead to a premature failure or fire are well known. LookIR infrared window panels allow accurate temperature measurements to be taken during normal operation, without opening cabinet doors. Plastic infrared inspection windows are available from AXU in Italy to lower the costs of making routine thermal imaging inspections of transformer boxes and other electrical equipments. Most process engineers are familiar with the advantages of using thermal imagers or infrared thermometers to routinely check temperatures in plants, and locate hot-spots that may lead to a premature failure or fire. Usually, making a thermal inspection of an electrical cabinet requires opening doors, modifying the actual temperatures that exists in its normal operating state. Furthermore, internal inspections…
