We not only need to improve our own fire safety awareness in daily life, but also strengthen the fire safety knowledge reserves for the elderly whose physical strength and perception are gradually declining and the children who are active and curious, so as to better deal with fire accidents. In addition to improving fire safety awareness, it is imperative to use advanced infrared thermal imaging science and technology to enrich the daily electrical circuit system monitoring safety detection methods and upgrade the rescue capabilities of armed firefighters.

Infrared thermal imaging technology helps firefighting and rescue

Fire detection

In large forests, there are often inconspicuous hidden fires; grain fires are generally not obvious, and the burning or smoldering of grain granaries will last for a long time and may not even be easily detected, resulting in huge losses every year. It is difficult to detect low-intensity hidden fires in large forests or warehouses using existing common methods, but this is the root cause of devastating fires.

Infrared thermal imaging equipment has three obvious functions for this type of fire, namely early detection of fire conditions, determining the scope and hazards of fire conditions, and taking fire extinguishing measures at the fire location. Combined with the automatic recognition algorithm of the front-end thermal imaging network camera platform, intelligent video monitoring, automatic recognition and alarm linkage of fire conditions can be realized. Since infrared thermal imaging cameras are devices that reflect the surface temperature of objects and form images, they can be used as effective fire alarm equipment in addition to being used for on-site monitoring at night. For example, in a large forest, the use of long-distance thermal imaging pan-tilt camera can quickly and effectively find hidden fires and accurately determine the location and scope of the fire. It can find the fire point through the smoke, extinguish the fire in the bud, and issue an alarm at the first time, so that firefighting work can be carried out in time and minimize the property losses of the country and the people.

In the operation monitoring of industrial equipment in industries such as electricity, thermal imaging cameras can fully demonstrate their infrared temperature measurement capabilities, can sense the temperature changes of power equipment such as transformers, and can realize the identification and alarm linkage of abnormal temperature changes in combination with analysis software, which can realize system self-protection or active alarm output, timely save losses, and avoid causing large industrial accidents.

Fire scene search and rescue

Infrared application is a detection technology developed based on the infrared thermal radiation properties of objects. The infrared search and rescue technology extended from this technology in the field of firefighting can greatly enhance the clear display of the search target shape and the temperature of each point in complex conditions such as thick smoke, heat, and building collapse, helping firefighters to quickly search for people in distress and valuables, and can also promptly find the fire point/largest fire source, thereby reducing the time of fire fighting and reducing the loss of items. It is a powerful tool for fire scene rescue work. Compared with traditional firefighting and rescue methods based on naked eye detection, infrared thermal imagers based on infrared technology can help firefighters not be disturbed by thick smoke and darkness, clearly observe, discover, and grasp the real situation of the fire scene, and make scientific decisions and correct deployments as soon as possible.

Not only that, infrared thermal imaging technology can also play an important role in fire prevention inspections. Through infrared thermal imagers, inspectors can quickly find hidden leakage points caused by equipment damage and quickly find valves to shut off and cut off flow. It can be said that all chemical production equipment, pipelines, equipment, storage equipment, etc. that are related to thermal radiation energy and temperature and equipment failure information can be checked for fire safety hazards such as leakage using infrared thermal imagers.

Compared with conventional detection, professional infrared thermal imagers have the advantages of high accuracy, fast detection speed, easy to carry, and non-contact detection. Guide Sensmart infrared thermal imagers help more fire rescue teams to cross the high-temperature sea of fire and thick smoke and fog, quickly lock the location of the trapped in distress, find the source of the fire, extinguish the fire accident, and escort life.
