THERMOGRAPHY
PRESENTED BY: Shakil Muhammad. UET Peshawar,Pak
Infra Red Thermography is a technique for producing a visible image of invisible (to our eyes) infra red radiation emitted by objects due to their thermal conditions
OBJECTIVES. To detect hot or cold areas. To determine absolute temperature To view Thermal profiles To detect temperature loss
Infra Red is part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum
It travels in straight lines at the speed of light
The useful part is divided between Short and Long wavelengths
Use of the correct wavelength is essential
Hand held portable camera
Battery Powered Operating at correct
wavelength Range…..-20°c to
+1500°c. Real time display Image Recording
capability
Non Contact Rapid Scanning Data can be recorded in differing
formats Images produced are comprehensive &
reliable
Object radiates infra red radiation Temperature difference Differences are detected and
displayed visually Emissivity values must be observed
Non Contact Non Intrusive Can work at a distance Fast and Reliable Portable Convincing Results
There must be a temperature difference for certain surveys
Operator experience is essential Filters may be needed for certain
applications Sensitivity and Resolution reduce with
distance and angle of view

Used for the detection of;
Corroded connections Slack / loose
connectors Connectors at too
high an operating temperature
Hot spots
The detection of process or manufacturing faults
Can be used as a quality control tool
