IMAGE INTENSIFIER TEST EQUIPMENT
The image intensifier test station system is designed to perform automated measurements of all essential parameters of image intensifiers and their power supplies. It supports testing of both potted tubes (encapsulated units powered by low-voltage supplies) and vacuum blocks (bare tubes powered by high-voltage power supplies). This test station system is suitable for use by manufacturers, testing laboratories, and repair workshops throughout the different stages of the image intensifier lifecycle.
Description
Description
The set of image intensifier test stations is designed for automated measurements of all the basic parameters of image intensifier and it’s power supply. The set performs the tests of potted tubes [encapsulated tubes powered from low voltage supply]and vacuum blocks [bare tubes powered from high voltage power supplies]. The set of test stations can be used by manufacturers,test laboratories,repairing workshops at different stages of life of Image Intensifiers.
