► Early detection enables repairs to be made during scheduled maintenance periods. ► Reported database information tracks recurring weaknesses which may be corrected in future designs.
► Protect your facility against risk of fire and explosion.

Inspections

CEL will work to ensure your facility keeps operating. When contracted for a continuous Preventative Maintenance Program, CEL will map the recurring trouble spots within your facility. The inspection scheduling is tailored according to the facility's recurring trouble spots, regular annual inspection, or customer demand.

Standard Scheduling Program
► Initial Inspection
► Six month inspection
► Anniversary Inspection

Tailored Scheduling Program
► Recurring trouble spots will be inspected until the problem has been rectified.

Thermography

► Facility is inspected using modern infrared cameras.
►Thermography enables a "hot spot" to be identified before a failure occurs.
► A thermography inspection takes place while the facility is in operation.
► CEL's thermography technicians are also journeyman electricians. This means they are qualified to open and work in live electrical enclosures, check circuit loading, diagnose electrical overheating and provide repair recommendations.
