Thermal imaging saves school from fire for second time

AWB Ltd thermal imaging technology was employed again tonight to locate the source of ignition in a classroom at Nene Park Academy. A light fitting that had began combusting due to a faulty ballast was the cause of the fire.
Using our thermal imaging camera we were able to quickly pinpoint the exact location of the seat of the fire and make it safe whilst waiting for the fire brigade to attend and put out the fire. The above image shows the source of the fire, a light fitting running in excess of 270 degrees celsius.
Previously AWB's thermal imaging had detected a burning cable inside the trunking system just as it was about to melt the mains cable feeding the whole school. The fault had been found as a part of the schools previous electrical testing regime incorporating the thermal imaging survey for fire hazard detection.
AWB Ltd also utilise this technology for fault diagnosis on htg systems of all sizes including checking whether systems really do need power flushing., leak detection and energy loss surveys for all domestic, commercial, industrial and retail environments to identify heat and energy losses enabling clients to make substantial savings.
