Infrared Thermography

I recently took a class on infrared Thermography offered by Fluke. Fluke has several online training sessions for free at Thermal Imaging Online Seminars.    I did not know about the use of IR thermography in preventative maintenance for mechanical and electrical systems.  I primarily us IR thermography for finding water damaged building materials after a water event.


IR photo of a water leak on a wall is shown in blue. A red heat source is also in the wall.  Photo - N. Carlson

I also have posted an  Infrared thermography quiz and photos at Quizlet.  Please use the pretest feature and set the pretest screen size to be larger for the best viewing of the IR pictures.
