Thermal MAPPING:
An effective problem identification tool

Quick and LEAN method at low cost

BACKGROUND

• Cleaning process temperature distribution and sanitation effect in API process tanks

• Possibility of biofilm formation in API process tanks

• Increase in API product Bioburden limits

Benefit

• Investigation and mapping of process without equipment changes or production interference

• No sanitary compromise during task performance, as no sensors in direct contact with product surfaces or opening to process are needed.

• Presentation of thermal images and preliminary results to client on day 1.

• Identification of root cause for uneven temperature distribution.

Services

• Project Management.

• Evaluation of procedures and cleaning process.

• Baseline definition

• Visual inspection.

• Selection and identification of positions for thermal imaging.

• Test planning and development of test protocol.

• Thermal (mapping) imaging during operation.

• Analysis of thermal images and data

• Root cause identification.

• Recommendations and report for client approval.
