Flir E 60 Infrared Camera

The FLIR E60 thermal imager offers one of the most effective ways to keep your facility operating at peak performance, avoid expensive equipment failures, and prevent loss of production capacity.

IML PD-500 Pole Tester

With the IML-RESI PD-Series digital inspection drill you can drill at every height of the pole, from the soil level to the top end of the pole. This provides you with a fast and efficient method of capturing the internal state of the wood. The inspection drill captures the resistance of the wood against a 1/10” bit providing you with an outline of where decay or cavity may be found inside the pole. A general speed for pole inspections is 40 inches per minute, with each drilling typically taking under one minute, the result is a quick capture of the internal state of the wood with an automatic inspection conclusion with our Wood Inspector software. Many utility companies and contractors concentrate on inspecting the regions of concern focusing on the soil level and angling at 30 degrees down at the base level. The PD-Series can also be used in conjunction with timber or tree inspections by turning off the pole inspection software, WoodInspector.

Testo 340

Precise technology: That’s what you want to be able to rely on when you’re working out in the field. But precise technology is nothing if it is not versatile, easy to use and adaptable for use in the field. The testo 340 flue gas analyzer ticks all these boxes.

“The preliminary CO reduction tests that we ran on our two RICE compliant engine catalysts help assure us that the cats are actually still performing as expected and ready for the either three or five year emissions test required by the Federal Government and the State of Kansas.  Even though this test is not a certified test, it does give us some assurance that the units will actually perform as expected in the certified test without cleaning or replacing the catalysts.”

“The Testo 340s proved to be easy to use.  The only readings that we were interested in at the time were carbon monoxide, but these units are also set up to do much more.  Each of the units can test for O2, CO, and SO2 in engines and turbines run on both diesel and natural gas.   Even though we did not try it, the units are also able to send the info to a Bluetooth printer if desired.  The fact that you have two Testo 340s allow both the pre cat and post cat gases to be tested simultaneously or the tools could be loaned to two cities at once and each unit’s probe could be moved between the pre cat and post cat ports to determine reduction performance.”
