Flir Cameras Assist Chubb In Fault Detection

Chubb has added two Flir P-Series infrared cameras to its range of inspection equipment for electrical and mechanical assets.

The Flir cameras allow IR services to be provided across all industry sectors, from municipal, medical and leisure establishments to commercial enterprises, factories, warehouses and utility sites. Predominantly, the role of the cameras is in the condition monitoring of capital equipment and associated electrical systems, but they are also used to check the integrity of the insulation.

The Flir thermal-imaging cameras allow Chubb to spot the signs of a developing fault without the need to interrupt the production or business process. Neil MacLeod, risk engineer, said: 'The report wizard ensures that a summary of the survey can normally be issued within 24 hours.

Flowmeter Ideal For Air Leakage Detection

Endress+Hauser has launched the ATT12A thermal air flowmeter, designed for compressed air applications. The ATT12A airflow trend meter is said to be ideal for use in air distribution, compressed air monitoring and air leakage detection.

The meter features an IP66 stainless-steel housing and all-stainless-steel construction. It can be installed in any location. Covering a range of line sizes and flow rates, the ATT12A t-trend can achieve substantial savings by monitoring compressed air usage and leakage, according to Endress+Hauser.

It features a push-button function offering user-friendly menu navigation and device configuration. Its illuminated LED switch point flashes in the event of any programming failure, meaning users are informed of the error immediately. The LCD display allows simple programming of the device through a guided menu and shows the measured values as well as the percentage of maximum flow rate and error codes providing information about the current status.
