Irish infrared cameras supplier scope expanded

A Flir Systems product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Nov 18, 2004

As well as representing FLIR Systems A-series interests, Butler Technologies has also become responsible for the sale of torch-style infrared cameras in Ireland.

FLIR Systems has been at the forefront of industrial thermal imaging for more than 30 years and is now the world leader in this technology.

Broadly, its extensive range of infrared cameras fall into two distinct application areas, those that require excellent thermal image quality but no temperature measurement and those that require precise temperature measurement and analysis through high quality thermal imaging.

It is the former field in which FLIR distributor, Butler Technologies, enjoyed considerable early success with FLIR Systems' infrared cameras and has now led to this Irish company extending the scope of its representation.

Based in Maynooth, County Kildare, Butler Technologies is now one of Ireland's leading suppliers to the communications sector whose solution-providing expertise is finding favour in a wider industrial community.

Pharmaceutical manufacturing is one of its burgeoning markets, a sector that has a high requirement for manufacturing process monitoring and control.

"FLIR Systems' A-series infrared cameras are ideal for this type of application," confirms MD Flor Butler.

"They offer flexibility in terms of size and performance so that a system can be virtually purpose-built from standard modules to suit the precise needs of the application." As well as representing FLIR Systems A-series interests, Butler Technologies is also responsible for the sale of the company's E-Series, torch-style infrared cameras in Ireland.

In common with the A-series, this product range also provides temperature measurement and imaging-only options.

The new top-of-the-range ThermaCAM E65 is the only model of its type to include interchangeable optics and basic reporting software, both as standard.

However, it is with the imaging-only E-Series ThermoVision SCOUTT model that Butler Technologies has already secured a substantial order.

This product has been specifically designed for law enforcement and search and rescue applications.

It allows the user to detect human presence in complete darkness, fog, and in hard-to-access places such as attics.

Its ability to ensure that surveillance is both discrete and safe has resulted in Butler Technologies receiving an order to supply a quantity of SCOUTT for high-level and sensitive security applications in Ireland.
