About this ebook

A thermal imager is used to detect radiation (heat) originating from an object, convert it to temperature, and display an image of the temperature distribution. This process is known as infrared thermography. Thermograms—illustrations of the detected temperature distribution—allow the observation of heat-producing objects that are invisible to the unaided eye. It is extensively utilised in building diagnostics, medical imaging, law enforcement, and security imaging, as well as predictive maintenance and condition monitoring.

This book contains over hundred of photos taken for several industrial equipment from several plants: fertilizer, chemical, and crystal-glass making that will help the practitioners identify different types of failures for different types of equipment including pumps, compressors, transformers, engines, motors,...etc. The book also have examples of application in construction, medical and civil fields.
