Infrared Thermography for Data Centers

Happy 2012! I hope your holiday season was a good one.

So many people receive electronics over the holidays - computers, smartphones, ipads - so much data. Which is a not so subtle way of leading into January's Infrared Scanning Series on Data Centers.

Does your company use networked computers? Then chances are, somewhere in your offices is a data center. Data centers are usually filled with servers and other equipment - the technological backbone of your business. As you can imagine, the heat generated by so many electrical components can be intense, and so data centers are carefully monitored for temperate spikes or drops.

More than just the data center itself needs to be monitored. Along with all those servers comes a lot of electrical equipment. A thorough predictive/preventative maintenance (P/PM) program uses infrared thermography to detect excess heat radiating from those components.

What you can't see CAN hurt you!
Remember, electrical components heat up before they fail.

Loose connections, overloaded or imbalanced circuits, faulty breakers, damaged switches, faulty fuses and a wide range of other unwanted electrical conditions produce a heat signature that cannot be seen with the naked eye, but can be easily detected using an infrared scan camera. Remember, what you can't see CAN hurt you!

If you haven't had a thermal heat scan of your data center in the last six months, now is a great time!
