Preventive maintenance by thermography
A thermal image gives us information about an object’s heat radiation. It will detect any abnormal temperatures in an electrical system, and makes it possible to detect potential hazards at an early stage. Thermography is often used as a supplement to control and maintenance work, as it detects errors we might not be able to observe with our own eyes.
Thermography is one of the most valuable methods within preventive maintenance. It significantly reduces the chance of damage to people and property, and it can be profitable as it precludes shutdowns.
Brattvaag Electro is a specialist in thermography. Our thermographers are certified by DNV, which is known for its strict quality requirements of expertise and knowledge. We perform thermography on ships and offshore platforms. The method is performed during normal run, so it will not cause any delays or temporary shutdowns.

About Brattvaag Electro
Brattvaag Electro was founded in 1933 in a small industrial and fishing-town called Brattvåg. It was one of the first companies in this line of business in Norway. It all started with installation of lights in fishing boats. Since then, electrical services and installations in maritime vessels have constituted the cornerstone of the company’s business. Brattvaag Electro has manufactured these products for many decades, and our equipment can be found on ships all over the world.
