As a result our inspections yield 3 to 1.0 times as many findings as ordinary infrared. We do not stop at identifying defects in electrical and can also test your rotating equipment for hidden problems that, if corrected in a timely fashion, will extend the life of your equipment. Our other capabilities include GFI testing, breaker proactive testing and maintenance, acoustical test, corona testing, NEC/OSHA violation reporting, power quality analysis, X -Ray, ground radar, aerial infrared surveys, laser shaft alignment and more. For a modest investment, your facility will gain a fairly comprehensive understanding of your equipment potential for breakdowns. This will impact positively on repair cost control, increase availability/uptime and help protect your building and personnel from catastrophes, such as fire or explosion. The expected return on investment is at the very least a ratio of 1:4 (am rding to EPRI). You will find us committed to a very conscientious work ethics and as engineers and technicians we vow to seek your best interests. We offer NO REPAIR and as a result have nothing other to gain from our inspections, other than your good will. We look forward to supporting your goal to achieve work! -class facility reliability.
