Solutions to NFPA 70E Adherence and Arc Flash Safety
Sponsored by: Mikron Infrared

There are methods available in the market to adhere to NFPA 70E and help to protect against Arc Flash events. During our recent web seminar, we explained the consequences of Arc Flash and some of the guidance available to help avoid these events. This follow-on web seminar will discuss solutions that are available to allow for safe thermal inspections of equipment to help avoid Arc Flash events. The solutions are actual documented ways industry has implemented safe, cost effective solutions.

Maintaining Maintenance Documents
Sponsored by: JustSystems, Mark Logic & Flatirons Solutions

Documents are often taken for granted, especially in the realm of plant and equipment maintenance. In some instances, proper, complete and current documentation is not available because the scale and complexity of these documents makes them hard to be kept updated. When we think about the times updates were left out, changes were not made, and portions just went missing, it's no wonder problems increase and reactive maintenance prevails. This can create serious risk in maintenance operations, as crews execute tasks based on out-of-date methods and procedures. Additionally, the sheer scale of these documents makes it difficult to efficiently target information so that maintenance crews have exactly what they need, when they need it.

Arc Flash Avoidance and NFPA 70E Compliance
Sponsored by: Mikron Infrared

Most of us know that the words "Arc Flash" mean something serious. But, most of us do not know how dangerous an Arc Flash can be. Some things to consider are:

• There are approximately 2,000 Arc Flash events that occur in the United States every year
• Temperatures can reach 35,000 °F in less than 1 second
• When copper vaporizes, a dynamite like explosion will occur

So, now that we have your attention, Arc Flash events can be minimized and avoided if you understand safety standards and adhere to published requirements. Documents such as NFPA 70E can help save lives and avoid catastrophic incidents. Safe maintenance practices, knowing what to look for, thermal imaging of electrical switchgear using safe equipment and protective gear can all help. Join us in this informative web seminar to understand what an Arc Flash is and safety standards you should follow to save lives.

Why is Resolution Important in a Thermal Imaging Camera
Sponsored by: Mikron Infrared

There are numerous variations of thermal imagers in the market today. Some have features that are beneficial, others do not. The item that thermographers are clearly interested in is resolution. Whether it be 160x120, 320x240 or 640x480, each has its benefits and trade-offs with cost. So, how much resolution do you really need? Is there a method you can use to determine which resolution would be best for you? Are there 2 or 3 questions that you can answer that will point you to the right resolution needed? Join us for this Free Web Seminar to learn more about Thermal Imaging Resolution and the benefits it can provide to you.
