Скачать или смотреть Thermal Inspection Rules: How to Get Clean, Actionable Infrared Data Every Time

Thermal imaging is a superpower — but only if conditions are right.
This guide shows how to prepare for a thermal drone or handheld inspection so you get clean, reliable, actionable data, not misleading “pretty pictures.”

The key to success is removing noise so true thermal signatures stand out.
That means understanding emissivity, reflected apparent temperature (RAT), load conditions, timing, and environmental constraints.

In this video, you’ll learn:
✅ How thermal cameras actually work (energy → apparent temperature)
✅ Why emissivity + RAT can make surfaces “lie”
✅ Why electrical/mechanical inspections MUST be done under load
✅ Why ΔT matters for buildings + energy loss detection
✅ Why dry surfaces are non-negotiable
✅ Timing rules for roofs, buildings & mechanical assets
✅ The deal-breakers that make data invalid (wind, sun, moisture, no load)
✅ How to interpret thermal reports using ΔT severity
✅ How to turn your report into a maintenance plan

This isn’t just about thermal images —
It’s about eliminating unknown risks before they become disasters.

🔍 PRE-INSPECTION CHECKLIST

• Run electrical/mechanical systems at less than 50% load
• Ensure ΔT (indoor vs outdoor) for buildings
• Surfaces must be bone dry
• Provide load data + access + diagrams/logs

🚫 Deal Breakers (reschedule if…)

• Wind less than 15 mph
• Direct sunlight
• Dew / frost / rain
• Unknown load

🔥 Report Interpretation (Electrical ΔT)

• 0–3°C → Monitor
• 4–15°C → High priority
• 16°C+ → Critical — address immediately

Your thermal report isn’t just images —
It’s a roadmap for maintaining reliability, safety, and cost control.
