Troubleshoot Breakdowns Before They Happen
Electrical / Mechanical Inspections
A solid predictive maintenance program can make the difference between meeting or missing production deadlines. So many companies rely on FLIR thermal imaging and Test & Measurement tools to survey and troubleshoot mechanical equipment and electrical systems. These tools allow technicians to inspect energized equipment safely—even at peak operation. Along with troubleshooting, thermal imaging cameras and non-contact measurement tools can also help optimize the production process and monitor quality control.
We have numerous breaker boxes that get inspected for connectivity problems, as well as motors that are checked. With FLIR, we can replace the motors prior to them going out, which saves downtime.

Find it, Diagnose it, Fix it
See Initial Signs of Failure
A thermal imaging camera allows you to quickly scan large areas, looking for hot spots on machinery or electrical systems that could indicate a potential problem.
Diagnose the Source of the Problem
With built-in meter features such as LoZ mode, and in-camera temperature analysis options, FLIR’s range of professional tools helps you quickly diagnose problems and get to the job of fixing them.
Demonstrate that it’s Repaired
Thermal images provide visual proof a fault existed and was properly repaired. Including these shots and measurement data in your reports will help to document your work and increase customer confidence.

Target Problems Quickly with IGM™
Finding the source of an electrical failure can turn into a guessing game if you’re using a thermocouple or spot IR gun. FLIR IGM products combine thermal imaging with clamp meters or digital multimeters, so you can find hot spots visually and then quickly start on repairs.
