The crane inspections that Decker Electric conducts consist of a hands-on type of preventative maintenance and inspection service. This is very important to note, because a visual inspection on its own might overlook mechanical and electrical deficiencies not apparent without actually handling the equipment.
Our crane inspections include, but are not limited to, the inspection of all brakes and any adjustment as required, checking oil levels and filling if needed, greasing the system, inspecting and lubricating load chains and wire ropes, checking electrical controls including contactors, transformers, and brake coils, inspection of the load hooks and latches, checking runway supports and structural connections throughout the crane system, and listing items which may not be in compliance with OSHA standards.
An inspection report including deficiencies and recommendations is given to the customer after the inspection process is completed. Inspection labels are affixed to the equipment that is deemed to be in service worthy condition. A follow-up quotation for any repairs required to bring the equipment up to OSHA standards is also prepared and is submitted for the customer's evaluation.

With increasing demands for cost reduction to remain competitive, many companies are expanding maintenance programs to include predictive and proactive technologies. One such technology is Infrared Thermography (Thermal Imaging). Used as a condition monitoring technique, thermal imaging enables users to identify potential areas of equipment failure and limit downtime. Decker Electric has the equipment and certified personnel to perform regular inspections that include scanning systems associated with critical assets - those whose failure would threaten people, property, or product. That way, you’ll have baseline images for comparison, which will help you determine whether or not a hot spot is unusual and requires repair as well as verify that repairs are successful. Our customers have realized a significant reduction in issues revealed by our Thermal Imaging Process. We can also scan roofs, steam traps, valves, gear boxes, drive couplings, drive shaft universals, belts, PLC cabinets, DCS cabinets, and motors.
