MINIMISE LOSS WITH
THERMAL IMAGING I
n a bid to minimise electrical and mechanical failure and its associated fire risk, an increasing number of insurers are now requiring their
customers to adopt thermal imaging to spot electrical and mechanical faults in their infancy. CNA Insurance has taken this a stage further by offering its customers
an IR thermal imaging service. FLIR thermal imaging has helped CNA to strengthen its risk management programmes and integrate services to protect lives, safeguard assets and increase profitability. Armed with FLIR IR cameras, CNA’s certified thermographers have
conducted 6,445 surveys over the last five years; that’s around 100 surveys per month. They found thousands of faults and deficiencies, averaging 7.3 faults per report. And the company estimates this has saved its thermography customers the equivalent of £10 million per year.
