Non-destructive infrared thermography testing of electrical equipment in Toronto and worldwide.

WHAT IS INFRARED
THERMOGRAPHY?

Infrared thermography is a non-invasive inspection technique that utilizes thermal imaging cameras to detect heat patterns and temperature variations. It is commonly used to assess equipment, buildings, and electrical systems for potential issues. By identifying anomalies such as overheating components, air leaks, or moisture intrusion, infrared thermography helps prevent costly failures, improves safety, and enhances energy efficiency.

Infrared inspections are widely used in industries such as manufacturing, construction, and facility management to ensure optimal performance and prevent unexpected breakdowns. In manufacturing, infrared thermography helps detect overheating machinery before failures occur. In construction, it identifies insulation gaps and moisture intrusion to improve energy efficiency. Facility managers use thermal imaging to diagnose electrical issues and HVAC inefficiencies, ensuring safe and cost-effective operations.

Investing in infrared thermography can save you money and unnecessary downtime.

HOW INFRARED

THERMOGRAPHY WORKS?

Infrared cameras capture infrared radiation emitted by objects and convert it into a visual image known as a thermogram. These thermal images highlight temperature differences, allowing inspectors to identify hidden issues that are not visible to the naked eye.

KEY BENEFITS OF INFRARED THERMOGRAPHY:

What can I expect while working with IRIS?

When you schedule an on-site inspection with us, you can rest easy knowing:

You can expect the highest
level of service

That the screening can be performed without halting production

Technicians only need unrestricted access to the apparatus that is being
checked for hot spots

We use next-generation FLIR thermal imagers that are proven to deliver highly
accurate heat
measurements and clear visual images even if little or no lighting is provided

Upon completion of an on-
site thermographic
inspection our technicians
will take reference images
so that all deviations can be
easily spotted

You will receive a report,
detailing existing and
potential heat-related
equipment problems

What apparatus can be scanned using infrared thermography?

At IRIS, we carry out thermographic inspections of electrical installations throughout Canada. Whether you’re involved in the heavy industry or manufacturing, our infrared thermography services give your maintenance programs a major advantage for early problem detection. You can count on us for the detection of hot spots in virtually any type of electrical equipment including but not limited to:

  • Substations

WE PROVIDE
DRONE THERMOGRAPHY

As its name implies, drone thermography is the recording of roof temperature variations from above using advanced infrared cameras. Thermal images are combined with GPS data and CAD drawings for the more accurate detection of the areas where moisture is trapped. These insights are then used to draw up a comprehensive report on thermal anomalies found within a range of buildings.
