About RATTLIR

RATTLIR is not your average industrial predictive maintenance provider. 

 

We are a lean, precise, thermal hunting machine, built to tackle the toughest high-voltage switchyards, electrical infrastructure, and critical pipelines. 

 

Our mission is simple: detect potential threats early, alert you fast, and keep your power and energy systems flowing safely and reliably.

What We Do

Power Generation & Transmission
Keep your grids and substations running safely with high-precision drone and thermal inspections that catch potential problems before they become costly outages.

Renewable Energy Solutions
Maximize uptime and efficiency with visual and thermal monitoring of solar farms, wind turbines, and hydro-electric systems.

Pipeline & Natural Gas  Safety
Identify potential surface corrosion, leaks and structural weaknesses early with advanced aerial inspections and predictive maintenance for critical pipelines.

Search & Rescue Support
Rapid, accurate, and safe aerial thermal imaging to locate people or assets when time is critical.

Project Management & Consulting
Led by a Certified Project Management Professional (PMP), we provide expert guidance on inspection planning, risk assessment, regulatory compliance, and predictive maintenance programs - keeping your operations efficient and safe.

Safety Resources & Toolbox Talks

Because Safe Work Isn't an Obligation - It's a Culture

Toolbox Talk 2.jpg

At RATTLIR, safety isn't just a compliance requirement - it's the foundation of every decision we make.  With years of experience in power generation, utility work, and complex industrial environments, we understand that high-risk operations demand consistent communication, awareness, and preparation.

​

That's why we've built the RATTLIR Safety Series - Strike Before It Bites Toolbox Talk Library: a growing collection on concise, practical, field-ready safety topics designed for supervisors, technicians, and project managers to use in daily briefings.  Each talk reflects real industry hazards, real-world lessons, and the professional safety expectations of modern utility and industrial operations.

​

Whether you're leading a morning meeting or reinforcing a weekly safety theme, these toolbox talks are free to use - because a safer workforce benefits the entire industry.​​

Technology that Makes a Difference

Using NDAA-approved U.S. drones, radiometric thermal cameras, and acoustic detection systems, RATTLIR uncovers the failures you can’t see.

 

From hotspots and loose connections to corona activity and tracking on insulators, our technology exposes small problems before they strike.  Protecting uptime, reducing maintenance risk, and keeping power flowing.

sUAS

Our flights use NDAA approved American made drones -built for reliability, rugged conditions, and secure data handling. No foreign firmware, no hidden risks, just confidence for utilities, power producers, and critical infrastructure operators.

Thermal Camera.png

Thermal Imaging

Our thermal imaging tools expose the heat signatures your eyes can’t see — revealing loose lugs, overloaded breakers, hot bearings, and failing insulators before they turn into blown equipment and downtime.

Acoustic Camera.png

Acoustic Imaging

Our acoustic imaging systems detect partial discharge, corona, and tracking long before they become visible or measurable by traditional methods — helping prevent insulator failure, phase-to-ground faults, and flashovers in critical substations.

Hazards don’t wait, and they don’t advertise themselves. The heat, discharge, and gas loss brewing inside your systems aren’t visible in everyday operations — until something fails.

​

RATTLIR exposes those hidden warning signs early — hotspots, corona, tracking, and leaks — so utilities act before the grid suffers.

​

Better insight, safer decisions, fewer surprises. Strike before it bites.
