“Studies prove that a planned repair job takes only a fraction of the time needed for an unplanned job” 

Thermal Imaging is a service which is non-intrusive and should have no impact on normal business operations. Safety is our primary commitment, and all work is carried out in accordance with our method statements and risk assessments which are available on request. Global Infrared carries professional indemnity and $5m public liability insurance.

Our Methodology – In order to provide the most accurate and thorough infrared inspection, we must first inspect all areas and devices which are “normally” running under constant load like elevators, general lighting and laundry rooms etc., we find it is more efficient to chase than to create.

Then we move to the areas which have not been under load, for example: chillers (lead vs. lag) or time of day. This should be documented and noted so engineering personnel can schedule the equipment switch over (at the proper time) for a truly complete inspection of the area. If the equipment is shutdown or is “Locked Out” & “Tagged Out” this should also be documented as well, thereby minimizing any possibility of creating a false sense of security.

On many occasions we do not work a normal (9 to 5) day throughout the inspection period, this allows us to make ourselves available in the evening or early morning to test “Showroom”, “Night Lighting” and or “Generating” equipment when it is optimal.

The most important factor in any infrared inspection is to ultimately determine the “Root Cause” of any anomaly found; therefore, we do not incorrectly or prematurely have our client repair or replace any equipment or component without properly documenting the data (amperage, voltage & leakage test) to support such findings. Unlike the computer industry we are not in the component replacement business. So, bottom line it’s our job to find the more “Serious” faults which truly need attention thereby reducing those “unnecessary” repair costs. If we provide you with this kind of service year after year, then we’ve done our job successfully!
