About CMV Steck
CMV Steck GmbH, based in Kandel (Rhineland-Palatinate), is a service and distribution company for professional measurement technology. Founded in 1971 by Jean-Jacques Steck and renamed in 1991 to CMV (Computertechnik Messtechnik Vertrieb) Steck GmbH, the company offers thermographic services using infrared cameras, including the inspection of electrical and mechanical systems (switchgear, transformers, pumps, motors, pipelines), the assessment of buildings for structural defects, and the detection of SF6 leaks with the special camera FLIR GasFindIR LW. Further services include camera calibration checks, a rental service for thermal imaging cameras, and training and certification as a thermographer under the "Coaching with Confidence" program. In its distribution business, the company offers FLIR thermal imaging cameras, infrared sensors and pyrometers for measuring ranges from -50 to +3,000 °C, accelerometers from DJB Instruments (patented cone system), process calibrators, signal converters from JM Concept, Extech handheld measuring devices and high-definition video scopes. Customers come from the utilities sector, manufacturing industry, plant engineering, construction and the service sector.

Measurement Methods
Thermography / Infrared measurement technology
Non-contact inspection of electrical and mechanical systems as well as buildings for moisture, leaks, heat losses and heat build-up.
Pyrometry (non-contact temperature measurement)
Measurement of object temperatures from -50 to +3,000 °C with stationary and handheld pyrometers.
Gas detection (GasFindIR LW)
Special camera for the precise detection of SF6 leaks for utilities and environmental authorities.
Vibration measurement technology
Accelerometers based on the piezoelectric principle (cone system, IEPE) for condition monitoring.
Test and precision measurement technology
Process calibrators and dry-block calibrators for testing complete control systems in maintenance.
Endoscopy (VideoScope)
Inspection of hard-to-reach areas without complex disassembly.
