FICO Australia provides a Thermal Imaging (Electrical/Mechanical Infra-Red “Hot Spot”
Detection) service. Through the use of Thermal Imaging FICO Australia can provide
businesses the opportunity to be proactive in preventing potential and costly fires
due to overloaded, worn, faulty or poorly connected electrical and/or mechanical
components that may go undetected in a standard service inspection.
Using thermal imaging detection, FICO Australia can carry out an infra-red thermal
electrical inspection survey of all electrical/mechanical distribution switchboards
and other reticulation equipment. Data is collected under normal load conditions
without interruption to power. The data and photos are then collated into a clear,
concise, detailed Fault Analysis report which itemizes the areas of concern and makes
a recommendation as to which items need to be repaired, including a priority rating.
The Fault Analysis report is supplied in an electronic format.
The benefits of Thermal Imaging to the business are a reduction in:
the likelihood of electrical fires
the incidence of power or system failures
less down time from unexpected maintenance issues due to emergency breakdowns
an increase in safety for company personnel.
