Infrared Thermographic Inspection

Of
Selected Electro-Mechanical Equipment

Provided For
Acme Paper Mill
3/9/2003

Summary:
An Infrared Electrical / Mechanical inspection was preformed on 3/9/2003 for Acme Paper Mill

All of the items inspected are listed in the inventory section of this Thermal Trend report. Any anomalies that were
found at the time of the inspection (if any) are documented in the Problem Detail section of this report with there
appropriate associated data, i.e. Thermograms, Photos, comments, measurements, etc.. And are also listed in the
Prioritized list of problems section, in there order of priority based on the components temperature rise, as compared
to a similar reference component of equal type, loading, and environmental influences, at the time of the inspection.
The final decision as to the repair priority of any and all problems in this report rests on the owners, management,
facilities engineering team. The IR Thermographer assumes no liability directly or indirectly as a result of this
inspection or the decisions made as to establishing the priority and timeline of repair decisions made by the owners,
management, facilities engineering team.
