objectives

This training prepares you for the Qualification of a Level 1 Thermographer. You will learn the basics of infrared, use an infrared camera under different conditions and for different purposes, correctly evaluate a measurement situation in the field and identify sources. potential errors. You will be able to perform IR inspections as directed, and record the results of these inspections in reports.
