Following the outstanding success of Therm-App™, the industry’s first thermal imaging camera for Android phones, Opgal has announced two new models of Therm-App™. The new Therm-App™ TH device, dedicated for thermography applications, allows professionals to take accurate temperature measurements captured on high resolution thermographic photos & videos and immediately transmit them via email, messaging or file sharing platforms. The device offers an exciting suite of thermography features including full radiometric capability, multiple color palettes, video and sound recording, as well as efficient reporting and data analysis. In addition, like all other Therm-App™ models, Therm-App™ TH enables users to benefits from important Android smartphone features including touchscreen capabilities, round-the-clock connectivity, ongoing application updates, and more.

“Therm-AppTM TH offers unparalleled value,” said Amit Mattatia, Opgal President & CEO. “With its 384 x 288 resolution and a 6.8 wide angle lens, and all its Android device and application features, Therm-AppTM TH provides professionals with a mobile tool unlike anything they currently work with - and at significantly lower prices when compared to traditional tools with comparable image quality.”
Therm-AppTM TH is ideal for thermography, enabling temperature measurements of electrical installations, buildings, HVAC, insulation, plumbing and veterinary, and many other applications. Its affordable pricing makes it available to a wide range of professionals requiring reliable thermographic data for a broad range of applications.
Opgal is also announcing another member of the Therm-AppTM family: Therm-AppTM Hz, a high-end solution for security, safety and other night / outdoor applications. Through its higher 25 Hz frame rate, Therm-AppTM Hz delivers smooth thermal images, especially when the user or the targets observed are on the move, using a variety of interchangeable lenses ranging from 6.8mm to 35mm.
Both Therm-AppTM TH and Therm-AppTM Hz are now available from Opgal’s distributors worldwide. For more information, visit www.Therm-App.com.

Maintenance planning is the heart of efficient and effective asset management. However, there are times when maintenance planning falls short of expectations, resulting in unplanned downtime, inefficient resource allocation, and increased costs.
In a large plant, you will encounter many assets of varying complexities, as well as different strategies for performing condition monitoring based on asset criticality. For some assets, you may not need any strategy or the strategy might be simply to run to failure.
The oil and gas industry has become critical for sustained operations and long-term asset reliability. When it comes to condition monitoring, expensive technologies, extensive training, and years of development often come to mind, especially regarding rotating equipment. Tools, such as vibration spectrum analysis, thermal imaging, oil lubrication analysis, and motor current analysis, provide valuable snapshots in time and have been useful in practice for quite some time.
Sometimes, technical problems are symptoms of deeper cultural and operational issues. This article explores how a deep dive into recurring fluid catalytic cracker (FCC) expansion joint failures led to far-reaching insights, not just about metallurgy and maintenance, but about a refinery's decision-making, communications and reliability culture. It’s a case where the root cause wasn’t just in the metal, but in the mindset.
Enterprise asset management (EAM) implementation is sometimes misperceived as a complex, resource-intensive endeavor. But that perception is rooted in legacy approaches and outdated systems.
Effective maintenance planning and scheduling are essential to prevent unplanned asset failures from dictating your schedules and driving your budgets. In a reactive, unplanned environment, maintenance efforts falter—funds meant for proactive upkeep are instead wasted on waiting for parts, delayed equipment transfers, and emergency fixes that disrupt planned work
Minimizing downtime in the cement manufacturing industry is crucial, as each minute of operational delay can lead to significant financial repercussions.
This article outlines best practices for overcoming these hurdles and highlights the foundational elements of a successful spare parts management approach.
The impacts of Industry 4.0 and its younger sibling, Industry 5.0, fall right down to today’s factory workers. While embedded automation and optimization within the Internet of Things (IoT) and Industry 4.0 have the power to drive new efficiencies, they have also led to the introduction of more complex job roles and tasks, but for fewer frontline workers.
In today's industrial landscape, the buzz around advanced analytics is hard to ignore. Companies are increasingly looking to harness the power of data to drive efficiency, reduce downtime, and gain a competitive edge. However, the journey from collecting data to taking actionable steps based on that data is far from straightforward.
