Swedish Hospital
Overseeing facility management for a large commercial building such as a hospital or an office building can be a daunting task. Thermal Imagers can help make that job easier and more efficient. Being able to scan areas and find problems before they occur can save time and money.
With ever increasing energy costs and slimming budgets, being able to keep a facility up and operational is a great way to keep costs down. A Swedish hospital group did just that. Over the past few years they have been able to save over 4 million Euros using thermal imagers to keep their facilities in tip top shape. Click here to learn how they did it.
Transocean Inc.
Thermal imagers have a wide range of application in the industrial and mechanical fields due to the high amount of heat and friction generated by the constantly moving parts and machinery. Transocean Inc., the world’s largest offshore oil drilling contractor, uses FLIR cameras to diagnose problems aboard their rigs to save on valuable time and repair costs.
In one instance where one of only two glycol pumps on a rig was scheduled to be stripped and disassembled to diagnose a problem, Bob Speirs, an operations engineer, used a FLIR thermal camera to pinpoint the problem to a suction valve that was generating excess heat due to a cracked guide. The part was replaced, saving 12 hours of labor and downtime for the pump. The full range of FLIR cameras provides these valuable heat sensing capabilities.

Pet Diagnosis
Any changes in organic activity produce heat that can be visualized by a thermal imager. Finnish researcher and veterinarian Mari Vainionpää is using FLIR infrared cameras to find and preliminarily diagnose inflammations, bruises, tendon or muscle related injuries, superficial tumors, nerve damage, and blood circulation issues in her animal patients.
Vainionpää points out that when compared to expensive diagnostic equipment like x-ray machines and MRI machines, a thermal imager is very cost effective; and while it cannot replace these machines it is a viable preliminary step in identifying a variety of problems in animal patients. For applications similar to Vainionpää’s, choose the FLIR T-series. To learn more, read this Application Story from Flir.
