In the age of advanced diagnostics and preventive maintenance, thermal imaging technology has become an indispensable tool across a wide range of industries. In Bangladesh, sectors such as power generation, manufacturing, telecommunication, construction, healthcare, and automotive are increasingly turning to thermal imagers for non-contact, real-time temperature analysis.
As the use of this powerful technology grows, so does the need for professional thermal imager services—including calibration, diagnostics, training, and maintenance—to ensure accurate results and reliable operation.
A thermal imager, also known as a thermal camera or infrared camera, is a device that detects infrared radiation (heat) and converts it into a visual image. The resulting image, called a thermogram, displays varying temperatures in different colors, allowing users to:
Identify heat leaks
Detect electrical faults
Monitor mechanical equipment
Evaluate insulation or HVAC performance
Perform medical or body screening
Thermal imagers are widely used for predictive maintenance, energy audits, safety inspections, and condition monitoring.
Thermal imagers, although robust, are precision instruments that require regular servicing to maintain:
Image accuracy
Proper calibration of temperature scales
Sensor and lens integrity
Compliance with industry standards (e.g., ISO, NFPA, IEC)
Without proper servicing, readings can become unreliable, leading to missed faults, false alarms, or inefficient maintenance decisions.
1. Calibration and Certification
Calibration ensures that the thermal imager is accurately reading temperatures across its full range.
Performed using blackbody calibration sources under controlled conditions.
ISO/IEC 17025-accredited labs provide traceable calibration certificates—often required for audits and industry compliance.
2. Device Testing and Accuracy Verification
Checks for pixel accuracy, thermal drift, and field of view (FOV) issues.
Verification of emissivity settings and temperature measurement ranges.
Validation of alarm thresholds and spot measurement tools.
3. Lens Cleaning and Maintenance
Thermal imagers are sensitive to dust, oil, and moisture.
Cleaning and inspection of lenses, housings, screens, and sensors.
Checking for scratches or condensation that may distort readings.
4. Troubleshooting and Repair
Resolving issues like:
Dead pixels or distorted images
Software glitches or boot errors
Faulty battery, screen, or trigger mechanisms
5. Software Support and Firmware Updates
Installation of the latest software for image analysis, reporting, and data export.
Firmware updates for improved features, security, and bug fixes.
6. Operator Training and Interpretation
Training on:
How to use the imager effectively in field conditions
Interpreting thermograms and identifying anomalies
Adjusting settings like emissivity, temperature span, and palettes
Electrical Inspections – Identifying overheating connections, breakers, or transformers
Mechanical Equipment Monitoring – Detecting bearing wear, misalignment, or lubrication issues
Building Inspections – Locating heat leaks, insulation gaps, and moisture ingress
Power Generation – Monitoring boilers, turbines, substations
Telecommunications – Checking thermal performance of server rooms and network equipment
Pharmaceutical & Food – Ensuring consistent temperatures in cold chains and sterile environments
Public Health – Fever screening in airports, hospitals, and offices (especially post-COVID-19)

Counterfeit or low-quality devices offering unreliable readings
With the rise of smart factories, IoT integration, and predictive maintenance, Bangladesh is expected to see increased use of:
Wireless thermal cameras
AI-driven thermal anomaly detection
Cloud-based thermography reporting tools
Drone-mounted thermal cameras for inspections in remote or elevated areas
As industries across Bangladesh prioritize preventive maintenance, safety, and energy efficiency, thermal imagers have proven to be one of the most valuable diagnostic tools. However, the accuracy and reliability of this technology heavily depend on regular, professional thermal imager servicing.
Whether you are in manufacturing, energy, telecom, or building management, partnering with a trusted thermal imager service provider ensures that your device continues to deliver precise, actionable insights—keeping your operations efficient, compliant, and safe.
