Thermal Imaging Keeps Eye on SOLAS Requirements
Advances in technology in thermal imaging have presented ship owners and operators with an opportunity to reduce the costs of meeting the requirements of maritime insurance companies through a regime of ongoing planned maintenance. By using the latest low cost thermal imaging cameras, on board engineers are able to constantly check surface temperatures at sea to ensure none exceed the 220o limit imposed by insurance companies.
