About Us

About Our Team

We come from a diverse background in electrical and mechanical based industries. Thermal Imaging Services now boast a Level 3 ITC Certified Thermographer who oversees all inspections and ensures we continually strive to build upon the service we provide, and allows for new and innovative ideas to come forth and assist our clients in getting the most information out of their critical equipment.

Inn addition to ongoing training and development TIS regularly attends conferences and conventions with the aim of furthering our understanding of the world in infrared as well as new ideas and applications for providing our service. We have also attended conferences at a presentation angle in order provide inside industry knowledge to our key clients to help them understand what thermal imaging can do for their business.

There is an emphasis on personal relationships thereby obtaining an in-depth knowledge of the client’s requirements and providing them with a consistant quality of meaningful information and service.

Our Mission, Goals and Objectives

In early 1998 it was recognised that there was a requirement for Infrared Thermography within the New Zealand Industrial Sector. Research indicated that the requirement for the service overseas was increasing, being driven by Risk/Loss Insurance and the need to change from Preventive Maintenance Procedures to the more efficient and cost effective Predictive Maintenance Procedures and Condition Monitoring.

Of significant importance was that the trained operators of the Infrared Equipment must be qualified engineers, understand the operation of the equipment being surveyed and therefore be able to interpret what are normal or abnormal working conditions. This is essential to providing the client with meaningful information in the report.

The sole function of the company is to provide an Infrared Thermographic service. Thermography is a non-destructive, non-intrusive, non-contact means of detecting Infrared Radiation enabling the operator to see and measure minimal temperature differences. Thermographic Imaging, commonly called Hot Spot detection, is the most cost-effective method of determining faults in all Electrical and Mechanical equipment for Industrial and Commercial businesses.

While Electrical and Mechanical inspections are two of the most common applications for Infrared Thermography thermal imaging techniques can be applied to many other situations such as degradation of furnace walls, aircraft, buildings, flat roofs and analysing energy losses caused typically by poor or inadequate insulation.

Loss Prevention, Catastrophic Failure, Predictive Maintenance, and Condition Monitoring are an extremely important application for Infrared Thermography. Electrical Fires are not uncommon, a regular Thermal Imaging Survey of your Electrical Equipment will reduce the risk of fire, highlight any potential problems and allow preventive maintenance to be carried out.
