CITI - Corona Inspection Training Institute
Become a UViGrapher - an Expert in UV Inspection
UViGraphers are skilled corona-camera users, involved with predictive maintenance tasks, provide meaningful reports, and make competent use of their elaborated costly equipment. Qualified UViGraphers are valuable both to utilities that practice already UV inspection and to companies that consider adopting this technology because of their awareness and alert to hidden fatal signals. The corona inspection institute – CITI – is the only training center that encompasses all corona inspection aspects. Sponsored by Ofil, the manufacturer of DayCor® - the original daytime corona cameras, CITI qualifies UViGraphers and provides them with acknowledged industry certificates.

Feedback
"Thank you for the class! It was very educational and gave me the knowledge and confidence to use UV/solarblind cameras in the future"
...............................May 17, 2012 D. B. Ass.Dir. of Flight Operations
"The class turned out to be very useful, educative.
Over 90% of the participants were from the high voltage transmission, substation kind of work.
I was most probably the only one from a manufacturing setting and so we use it for a different setting.
It was good to mix with this group and review my power knowledge."
...............................November 2011, G.M. Electrical Engineer
"This was a well instructed course that I would recomend to anyone interested in this field"
...............................May 25, 2010 K. M. SR.Transmission Specialist
"Very good information and knowledgable tutors. Had no idea so much could be learnt with one device"
...............................May 2010, L.C. Electircal Engineer
"Excellent course. I will recommend CITI to my peers"
...............................May 2010, K.Mc . Electircal Engineer
"It was very important to know the theoretical aspects of corona"
...............................May 2010, E.A, Technical Director
" Thank you and your comapany for excellent corona inspection course. It was useful for me and I have very nice recollections"
