What is the application of infrared thermal imager in daily life?

1. Automated inspection.

The infrared thermal imager can only inspect the robot, and the Huaruitong intelligent ground inspection robot can perform inspection tasks in the unattended or unattended communication room, detect abnormalities in power equipment in time, alarm or dispose of them in time, which is of great significance to improve the efficiency and safety of industrial inspection work.

2. Control the machining process.

Process control is mainly closely related to temperature measurement or visual inspection of specific products on the production line. The obtained parameters are used to control and improve the process so that the temperature or appearance of the product meets the requirements of the technical parameters. If quality control is ensured, determine whether the product is 100 percent inspected. Infrared cameras can also achieve more, and production engineers can use valuable data in the production process to improve the efficiency of the entire production process.

3. Condition monitoring.

Condition monitoring is the process of identifying potential problems before they occur in order to prevent unexpected and costly production stoppages. Typical monitoring equipment includes high and low pressure equipment, turbines, compressors and other electromechanical equipment. Sometimes it is necessary to monitor the entire production process, because any abnormality can cause danger.

4. Fire protection/detection.

Fire can destroy entire premises and storage areas in a very short period of time, and the value of the goods destroyed is huge, and the cost of life cannot be calculated. Although warehouses and storage areas are usually equipped with fire alarm systems and fire protection systems, they only come into play after a fire. Thermal imaging cameras can detect hot spots before a fire occurs so that relevant personnel can take necessary measures.

Infrared thermal imaging technology is an advanced technology and effective method, which is suitable for various applications in the construction field. As a senior architect, you should know the following nine applications.

1. Find the leakage point.

The infrared thermal imager is a detection tool for quickly finding and checking pipeline leaks. It can also be used to detect water pipes laid under the floor or gypsum board. The infrared thermal imager can easily detect the true situation of the pipe heat radiated through the surface.

2. Inspection of building structures.

Infrared thermal imager is the fastest and most effective detection tool to find building defects. It can be used to detect the conformity of building structures and quickly convert heat loss, humidity and air leakage into visible color thermal images.

3. houses are dry.

In order to speed up the drying process of buildings, it is usually necessary to use drying equipment. The heat generated by the drying equipment can evaporate water in walls and other areas. An infrared camera can easily detect areas that are still wet and appear in the infrared image as cold spots.

4. Detect air leakage points.

A common method for detecting air leak points is to detect the air exchange rate and use a detection process called a damper. In this process, the house will generate negative pressure. At this time, the outdoor pressure is greater than the indoor pressure, so air will enter from the area where the seal is not strict. Infrared cameras can quickly detect flowing airflow, make it easy to identify areas that are not tightly sealed, and solve problems before completing the next process to avoid problems from potential construction problems to expensive thorny problems.

5. Look for roof leaks.

Assessing roof leakage systems is also one of the common applications of infrared cameras. The heat storage time of water is longer than that of normal roofing materials. When the roof cools at night, because its temperature is higher than other areas, the infrared camera can easily detect the water area. Repairing only the leaking area of the roof without replacing the entire roof greatly saves costs.

Sniffer technology and probes are used in early gas leak detection methods that require close contact or proximity to the target to be detected, and the inspector may be exposed to potentially harmful chemicals that are invisible to the naked eye. With the continuous progress of infrared technology, the method of monitoring gas leakage by infrared thermal imager is becoming more and more popular. Because it allows you to see the leaking gas and quickly lock the leak.

1. Oil Refining

A typical refinery includes two processes: separation and conversion. The separation process breaks down crude oil into useful components, either sold directly as a fuel or as a feedstock for the next process. The retrofit process modifies the molecular structure to provide a characteristic product suitable for blending with the finished fuel.

The infrared thermal imaging camera can make a prominent response to the light components and intermediates produced by the fuel processing plant. The general rule of thumb is that infrared cameras can detect crude oil fractionation components, from gasoline to kerosene.

2. Petrochemical

The feedstock for the hydrocarbon production industry comes from the separation process or conversion process of petroleum refining and is generally no longer processed in the refinery. Infrared cameras are used to detect gas leaks and observe chemicals used or produced in the petrochemical industry.

3. Chemical industry

Non-hydrocarbon or inorganic chemicals are produced from basic raw materials. Chemical industry is usually mass production and continuous process production, product purity is very high. Medium-wave infrared thermal imaging cameras are used for gas leak detection and have good responsiveness to some chemicals in the industry.

4. Power generation and distribution.

Natural gas is often used as a fuel. The medium-wave infrared thermal imager is very suitable for gas leak detection.

5. Natural gas

Production, storage, transportation and distribution of natural gas. Natural gas is mainly composed of methane and ethane, which can be clearly detected by medium-wave infrared thermal imaging cameras. It is suitable for leak detection from natural gas production to distribution networks to end consumers.
