IRT Report Format

The report details an infrared inspection of a heat exchanger that found 3 exceptions of varying repair priorities, provides thermographic images and temperature data on a high-temperature heat exchanger tube, and recommends priority 2 attention for cracked and leaking tubes that have reduced the exchanger's efficiency. The report follows standard procedures for infrared inspections and establishes repair priority ratings based on measured temperature severity.

FOREWORD
This report provides complete documentation of the exceptions (abnormally warm or cool
equipment) found during the infrared inspection of your equipment. It uses a variety of data and
ratings to help prioritize your repairs and give you the greatest return from your maintenance
efforts.
This inspection and report have been performed and prepared by Level II Certified Infrared
Thermographer.
This report fully meets the requirement of the Infraspection Institute's "Guidelines for Infrared
Inspection of Electrical and Mechanical Systems". It also references, incorporates and exceeds all
other published guidelines and standards pertaining to the infrared inspection of electrical and
mechanical systems.
HOW INFRARED THERMOGRAPHY WORKS

Infrared Cameras are sophisticated electronic cameras that "see" the heat radiated from your
equipment. In black-and-white thermograms (pictures of heat), white is hot and black is cold
unless stated otherwise. If the thermograms are in color, usually the white and red areas are
hotter and black and blue areas are colder.
Infrared Thermographer uses these special cameras to locate and measure the temperature of
exceptions. Overheating can cause premature deterioration and costly unplanned failure of your
equipment. With our advance notice, you can pro-actively service this equipment before it
creates costly problems.

REPAIR PRIORITY RATINGS

Maintenance personnel need to prioritize their repair efforts. So we provide you with a Repair
Priority Rating for each exception identified in this report. This Repair Priority Rating comes from
subjective and /or objective ratings.
Subjective Ratings are determined by your qualified assistant or representative who considers
how important the potential problem is to the safe and profitable operation of the system.
When a thermographer performs a qualitative infrared inspection (takes no temperatures), the
only rating is the Subjective Repair Priority Rating.
Temperature Severity Ratings are objective and based on temperatures taken by the
thermographer. Exception and other reference temperatures are compared to industry
standards and guidelines to produce an objective Temperature Severity Rating. When the
infrared inspection is quantitative, we have used the following temperature criteria to assign
Temperature Severity Ratings to the exceptions:

1 >50 C Degrees and above: corrective measures required


IMMEDIATELY
2 30 - 50 C Degrees: corrective measures required ASAP
3 15 - 29 C Degrees: corrective measures required as
scheduling permits
4 < 15 C Degrees: corrective measures should be taken at
the next maintenance period

Velosi Standard:

When the thermographer provides a quantitative infrared inspection (takes temperatures), the
Subjective and Temperature Severity Ratings are averaged to give you a recommended Average
Repair Priority Rating.

While these repair ratings will help you prioritize your maintenance efforts, you must understand
that the failure curves of many electrical and mechanical components are not linear and
predictable. Therefore, you should investigate and repair all reported exceptions as soon as
possible. And once repaired, each should be re-inspected i.e. post scan to assure that its
temperature is normal and that the potential problem has been corrected. Note that for every
problem always inspect for physical damage to determine repair or replacement of the particular
component identified.

There are no rules for the assessment of excess temperatures, which are measured on indirectly
overheated surfaces. Indirect overheating can be caused by hidden faults, e.g. cracks inside a
breaker where the temperature is measured from the outside.

Experience shows that oil insulated transformers and breakers with internal faults where an
approximately temperature increase of 10% has been measured on the surface are considerably
hotter inside. Very often the faulty parts are severely burnt.

1 >50 C Degrees and above: corrective measures required IMMEDIATELY


2 30 - 50 C Degrees: corrective measures required ASAP
3 15 - 29 C Degrees: corrective measures required as scheduling
permits
4 < 15 C Degrees: corrective measures should be taken at the
next maintenance period

ELECTRO-MECHANICAL PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE SURVEYS SHOULD BE USED AT LEAST


TWICE A YEAR

INSPECTION SUMMARY

1. The inspection was conducted and completed on July 04, 2018. A total of 60 items was inspected
and 03 exceptions/faults detected.

2. A breakdown of the no. of exceptions and repair priority found are as follow:

Repair Priority Number of


Exception(s)
Priority 1 1
Priority 2 1
Priority 3 1
Priority 4 0
Total No. of 3
Exceptions

3. Any potential problem was listed according to its Repair Priority Ratings. The ratings are as follow:

Priority 1: corrective measures required IMMEDIATELY

Priority 2: corrective measures required ASAP

Priority 3: corrective measures required as scheduling permits

Priority 4: corrective measures should be taken at the next maintenance period

4. Besides the exception images, we also include some reference images of the equipment that we
have inspected.

Analysis and recommended actions:

Heat exchanger with cracked tubes,efficiency of the heat exchanger has obviously been
compromised. The cracked and leaking tubes were found on a pre-shutdown inspection. This allows
for the planning and scheduling of tube repairs/replacement to be included in the scope of overall
repairs. All repairs should be monitored after start-up to insure quality of repairs and the resulting
return to an efficient operation. ( The Result table will expand if you add Measurement functions)
Priority 2 attention is required
