Working principle of infrared thermal imager

Almost all objects that utilize or emit energy generate heat before failure occurs. The key to the reliable operation of electrical and mechanical systems is the effective management of energy. Now, infrared imaging technology has undoubtedly become the most effective detection tool in the field of preventive maintenance. It can quickly, accurately and safely find the fault before the equipment fails. Discovering and repairing an electrical contact in time before it fails can save or avoid the high cost of production downtime, production decline, energy loss, fire and even catastrophic failure.
But it is not enough to find the problem only by infrared image. In fact, an infrared thermal imager that can only generate infrared images and cannot measure temperature cannot reflect all situations of electrical or mechanical failure. If an analysis report that lacks simple and fast detection data cannot accurately distinguish the hot spots that may cause failure from the hot spots of normal operation of the equipment, it is impossible to make a timely maintenance plan.
Infrared thermal imager is a detection device that detects infrared heat by non-contact, converts it to generate thermal images and temperature values, and then displays it on the display, and can calculate the temperature values. The infrared thermal imager can accurately quantify the detected heat, and can accurately identify and strictly analyze the fault area of the heat. Infrared imagers are widely used in the military, with helicopters and tank armored vehicles being the most widely used. Infrared imaging cameras can perform complex tasks at night and can accurately strike targets. The world's production of infrared imager better brands have the United States FLIR (its predecessor is the Swedish company FLIR) and GOEZ Gauss company, GOEZ its product reliability is relatively high.
