What Is Infrared?
Infrared light is not visible
to the naked eye because infrared wavelengths are too high on the
electromagnetic spectrum. The wave lengths are longer than those
of visible light and shorter than those of radio waves. This part
of the electromagnetic spectrum is what we perceive as heat or heat
radiation. Infrared is mostly associated with hot spots,
but did you know that ANYTHING above absolute zero emits infrared
heat?
What Is Thermography?
The term "Thermography"
refers to the capturing of thermal patterns and data emitted by
an object with the use of an infrared imaging and measurement camera.
An image is then produced with the camera that can give you data
that is otherwise unattainable.
Why Infrared Thermography?
Infrared Thermography is the
worlds leading predictive instrument tool. Why? Because an
infrared camera produces an image of the heat radiation that it
views and the picture that is produced is a story to what is happening
in relation to the thermal patterns. Heat is a factor of waste especially
in an electrical system. When excessive heat is detected by the
camera an image can be produced that becomes in itself a powerful
tool. With this data repairs and/or preventive maintenance can be
scheduled. Costs can be controlled by ordering parts a head of time,
scheduling the work when the operation can afford to be shut down
and by minimizing the possibility of dangerous conditions such as
fire and/or other loss. Infrared has many applications such as electrical
grids, mechanical systems, building envelopes, commercial rooftops,
R&D operations, medical industry and many, many others.

PTI is the leader in Metro Detroit for Infrared Thermography. We
feature FLIR Systems cameras exclusively. FLIR Systems is the world
leader in infrared cameras and technology. By using the most accurate
camera we produce the most accurate
result. Without good data and the expertise behind that data
you simply have a bunch of nice colorful pictures that might mean
nothing to your operation. PTI also utilizes it proven serial numbered
equipment matrix to ensure a quality inspection and to help maintain
trend data analysis. A report in binder format will follow the inspection
complete with equipment matrix. Simply put, PTI is rapidly becoming
the #1 choice in Metro Detroit
for Infrared Inspection & Analysis. We are Detroits first
