Application Notes
Introduction
Plant predictive maintenance has evolved from preventive and traditional run-to-failure maintenance methods and has been gaining popularity due to its benefits and advantages, which include reducing production downtime and optimizing maintenance costs.
When industrial or general manufacturing facilities use predictive maintenance, many voluntarily include IR imaging as part of electrical inspections. Some facilities are required to conduct IR evaluation in order to renew fire insurance policies. At these locations the insurance companies perform the inspection or may require that it be performed by a non-biased, third-party inspection company. In some locations, ISO requirements mandate that inspection be done by an independent third party.
This application note looks at the advantages and disadvantages of the predictive, preventive, and run-to-failure maintenance practices, and explains how preventive maintenance programs are enhanced using thermal imagers such as the Keysight Technologies, Inc. new U5855A TrueIR infrared imager.
