Infrared thermography measures the heat emitted from a surface, displays that information as a pictorial representation called a thermogram, and is capable of being a remote. While there are many ways to monitor the electrical and mechanical conditions of a motor, thermal imaging has proved itself to be useful mainly as a quick and efficient screening tool. The person performing the inspection must have an adequate working knowledge of the equipment they are inspecting as well as sufficient heat transfer theory training.
