Electrical panel
One termination hotter than the rest points to a loose or corroded connection long before it fails
Stage 2 of 4: See
Heat is the receipt for wasted energy
A calibrated thermal camera shows what the eye cannot: connections running hot, compressors and oil separators out of their normal range, cold lines losing insulation and doors leaking — every finding is logged with a temperature rise and a severity
- 0 contact with live equipment
- 100% of findings with image and ΔT
- 3 severity levels, no vague advice
- 5 to 7 working days to the report
Figures on this page are typical or illustrative ranges from our method, not audited results for a named site — your own baseline sets the real numbers
The same machine, two ways
Drag the slider — on the left is what you see on a walk-round — on the right is what the camera reads from the same spot, with temperature on every pixel
Oil separator
Oil level and discharge-side temperature, read through the shell with no contact
Valve and line
Where a cold line leaves its insulation, the camera shows exactly how many metres are exposed
What the survey covers
Electrical panels
Terminals, breakers, busbars and phase imbalance
Compressors and motors
Housings, bearings, couplings and oil separators
Cold lines
Suction and liquid lines, valves, flanges and insulation gaps
Envelope and doors
Panel joints, door seals, floor and roof interfaces
Condensers
Coil blockage and uneven airflow across the face
Evaporators
Frost pattern, uneven defrost and fan problems
How a survey runs
-
01
Plan
We pick the hour when load is normal, because a cold plant hides faults
-
02
Scan
Radiometric images paired with a visible-light photo of every finding
-
03
Classify
Temperature rise over a reference, compared with similar components, then a severity
-
04
Report
Findings ranked by cost of inaction, each with a fix and an owner
How findings are ranked
-
Urgent
Failure or fire risk — act at the next safe window, then rescan
-
Plan
Losing money every day — schedule the fix and track it
-
Monitor
Inside range today — added to the re-survey list
What you receive
- Every finding with a radiometric image, a visible photo and a temperature rise
- Severity ranking: urgent, plan or monitor
- Cost of inaction per finding, in AED a year where it can be estimated
- A fix and an owner for each item
- A rescan after the repair, so closed means confirmed
From a meter on the wall to a saving you can defend
-
01
Meter
Clamp-on meters on the incomer and the big loads — no shutdown, no rewiring
Output Load profile and a baseline
-
02
Survey
A radiometric thermal camera finds hot connections, cold-line losses and leaking envelope
Output Ranked findings with images
-
03
Tune
Setpoints, sequencing, defrost and fan control corrected one change at a time
Output Lower runtime, fewer starts
-
04
Verify
The same meters run again — savings are measured against the baseline and normalised
Output A saving figure you can defend
Questions we hear first
Can the camera see through walls or panel doors?
No — it reads surface temperature only — for panels, the covers are opened by your electrician under normal permit rules so the components are in view
Does the plant need to be running at full load?
It needs to be running at normal load — a lightly loaded panel or idle compressor will hide the faults we are looking for
How hot is too hot?
It depends on the component, the current and the reference — we rank by temperature rise over a similar healthy part and the manufacturer’s limits, not by a single universal number
How often should we re-survey?
Quarterly under Continuous Monitoring, or annually for a stable site — after any major repair we rescan that item
Book a free assessment
Find out what your plant is wasting
One call of about twenty minutes — we work out whether there is enough on the table to justify a site visit, and tell you plainly if there is not
- Free first assessment, no obligation
- NDA before the visit if you want one
- We sell no equipment, so findings are findings
