1 Practical Thermography for Mechanical Applications Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 1

2 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 2

3 Lesson Objectives Learn basics of what to look at in a mechanical IR survey Understand importance of a baseline IR survey Understand effect of environmental conditions Understand occasional need for other technologies Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 3

4 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 4

5 Why Use IR to Inspect Mechanical Equipment? Mechanical systems generate thermal energy during normal operation Excessive temperatures can be generated by: Friction Cooling degradation Material loss Blockages Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 5

6 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 6

7 Causes of Excessive Friction Friction Causes Wear Misalignment Over or under lubrication Misuse Heat energy will travel from generation points to surface to be imaged Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 7

8 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 8

9 Mechanical Applications Motors and their associated driven components Gasoline and Diesel engines Heat exchangers Piping systems Boilers and furnaces Steam Traps Valves Gear boxes Vessels and Tanks Automotive, Marine, and Aeronautical Multiple bearing transport systems (conveyors) Energy delivery systems Air handling systems Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 9

10 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 10

11 Familiarity with Equipment is Key Simply identifying a thermal pattern does not mean a problem has been located Once a normal thermal signature is obtained and understood, any deviation from this normal signature can provide evidence of a suspect problem Understand temperature limits of mechanical equipment Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 11

12 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 12

13 Thermography s Use More useful for locating a problem area than for indicating the cause of the overheating Other technologies such as vibration analysis, oil analysis, and ultrasound can be employed to find root causes Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 13

14 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 14

15 Thermography s Advantages Non-contact and non-invasive technique Fast Image easier to understand than many other NDT techniques Versatile Other NDT methods often necessary to pinpoint problems discovered with IR Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 15

16 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 16

17 Mechanical Applications Baseline IR surveys very important Variables include: Environmental conditions, especially temperature Equipment type, mfr Equipment load Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 17

23 Mechanical Applications Often use other condition monitoring technologies to verify and isolate findings Vibration Oil analysis MCSA (motor current signature analysis) Ultrasonics Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 23

24 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 24

25 Steam Traps More difficult than other valve or piping systems to diagnose Pressure has effect on temperature of steam in a saturated system As pressure decreases, the temperature of the steam decreases as well Improperly operating traps may go unnoticed Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 25

26 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 26

27 How to Inspect Steam Traps Inspect exit of trap. Should see temperature fluctuation as trap dumps condensate If you don't see it, can mean: Failed open or closed Undersized for condensate load Have not waited long enough to see trap cycle If you see any of these conditions, use an ultrasonic tester to verify trap s condition Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 27

28 Pub ITC 110 H Infrared Training Center 28
