Wastewater treatment is an essential process that ensures our water supply remains safe and sustainable to protect public health. Thermography plays a vital role in the preventive maintenance and reliability of the machinery and equipment involved with the wastewater treatment process. The presentation will discuss the role and advantages of our regular thermography inspection program introduced some years ago for a large regional government organisation.
The presentation will outline:
- Planning, logistics and coordination involved in conducting the thermography surveys on electrical assets over a 5,233 sq kilometre area
- Examples of thermal faults identified during our surveys and the reporting process
- Lessons learned from our program and improvements that have been implemented to streamline the inspection program
- Results and outcomes of the annual thermography inspection program
