CAL-SCAN INFRARED SERVICES
Any industry, process, building, facility or home in this modern world requires electrical energy to operate.
Electrical equipment, once energized, generates a small amount of heat. With time, the components begin to deteriorate. And with its deterioration comes increased heat. This course will continue until eventual failure.
Many fires are directly related to faulty electrical components. Costly downtime is also often contributed to electrical failures and problems.
Fluctuating or high loads, vibration, metal fatigue, age, specific operational environments such as extreme ambient temperatures, wind, chemicals, and/or dirt in the atmosphere will all increase the speed of degradation and the number of faults in the electrical system.

Cal-Scan Infrared provides Infrared Thermographic Inspection Services to ensure that your power systems and equipment are operating and running in their best condition. With years of experience in the industry, we have provided our customers with reliable thermal inspections that helped them maintain their power systems.
We have been providing infrared scanning services since 2009 with experience in the industry of more than 20 years. We are a group of electrical engineers and certified infrared thermographers.
A reliable power system is one of the most critical component of a company’s successful operation, and therefore, selecting the right company to do infrared inspections is just as critical. We are not affiliated with any engineering firm or general contractor ensuring you of an independent and unbiased inspection and evaluation of your power system.
In a business where finding and reporting just one significant fault can amount to one less injured employee and/or many thousands of dollars saved in unscheduled down-time and equipment replacement cost, employing the highest quality service provider is paramount.

A key strength of infrared thermography is that it is non-contact and non-invasive. Most of the areas being evaluated does not have to be taken out of service to perform an inspection.
Wherever there is increased resistance caused by a condition such as a bad connection or overload, it will show up in the infrared image as a brighter spot.
As an electrical connection deteriorates, the resistance to the flow of electrical energy increases. This electrical energy is transformed into thermal energy, which shows up as increased temperature.
By effectively documenting fault locations and fault intensities in electrical equipment, our customers can monitor the need for repairs and, when necessary, schedule repairs that prevent financial loss due to unanticipated equipment failure.
There are many benefits associated with infrared scanning and testing your equipment against fault and damages.
