Level 1 Certification Overview
These courses are designed to meet and exceed SNT-TC-1A recommended practices. A theoretical background is a must for understanding the real world problems that face thermographers in the field today. It will be combined with hands-on operator training which will teach you not only the basics of system operation, but also the finer points of your specific piece of equipment to give you maximum value from your infrared instrument. You will also learn the principles behind the main applications most industries are involved in. You will learn the techniques and reporting procedures necessary to put together an effective predictive maintenance program.

Used Infrared Cameras Wanted
In these recessionary times companies have to optimize their finances as best they can. Because of this we here at the Institute have been getting many calls to recommend what we think is the best IR Camera to purchase for the money. In other words what is the best value?
Now, we do not recommend any camera or manufacturer, if we did we would lose our independence and our “unbiased” status, and become like the other training companies out there.
But, we wanted to help our students and the Infrared Community, so we have created a new service:
The IR Camera Buy and Sell
To sell or purchase an IR camera simply send an email and let us know in details what you want to sell or purchase and we will do our best to match you up with what you are looking for.
There is no fee for this; it is a courtesy of IRT.
IR Cameras Wanted:
Mikron 7800 series IR Camera with 320x 240 detector.
