Thermal imaging provides a simple technique for accurate measurement of surface temperatures at a distance, and has many applications in industry.

Doosan Babcock uses thermal imaging techniques to identify and diagnose areas of concern on plant while it is in operation. The equipment is used by skilled inspection engineers who interpret what they are seeing as the survey progresses and will carry out closer investigation of potential problems as they are found. The surveys are backed up with detailed reports which include explanation of the images and recommendations for any further action that may be required. This allows plant operators to monitor changes in their plant condition and make provisions for any corrective action suggested as a result of the survey.

Rather than delivering a series of thermal images, our thermal imaging surveys deliver explanations and recommendations in the form of thorough reports to:

• Identify the areas surveyed
• Draw attention to noteworthy aspects of the thermal images
• Explain the possible causes and their significance
• Provide recommendations on what further action to take
