Thermal cameras helped solve a decades-old mystery in asphalt paving by identifying excessive temperature variations in the hot mix asphalt (HMA) pavement surface, or mat, of a road during laydown. This discovery was made using a FLIR ThermaCAM® infrared camera. Asphalt paving companies rely on FLIR cameras to ensure and report on quality jobs. Extech infrared thermometers are a useful complement to infrared cameras on asphalt paving jobs, enabling more technicians to have the tools needed for constant temperature checks.
Used to monitor humidity levels for conditions favorable to mold growth and static electricity. Mold causes spoilage and health problems; static brings component failures.
