Infrared Services

Are you involved with ongoing maintenance or commissioning projects? Are you looking to improve safety or meet insurance requirements? Infrared thermal imaging can enable you to identify potential defects in your equipment or in structures that will save you time and money when caught early.

The Snell Group’s skilled thermographers can support your maintenance program by locating thermal anomalies – too much heat, or lack of it – that indicate possible failure modes, faults, defects or inefficiencies within your systems or materials

Capturing good infrared images, interpreting findings, creating reports, as well as establishing inspection routes, implementing procedures, and best safety practices can be complex:

  • Electrical Systems – detect faulty electrical connections or overloaded circuits per the most up-to-date NFPA Standards.
  • Mechanical Equipment –locate overheating motors, bearing and roller failures.
  • Fluid Systems – identify line blockages, storage tank levels, diagnose heat exchangers or pipe temperatures.
  • Building Envelopes – Verify insulation placement, performance, or missing insulation.  Find air infiltration, detect moisture and moisture damage, avoiding unnecessary destructive testing methods.
  • Low-Slope Roofs – detect wet roof insulation that leads to failures.
  • Other Nondestructive Testing – inspect lightweight composite materials to locate delamination and moisture intrusion.
