Description
Description
The Intensifier Tube Generation 2+ LUX2-6425MW is a high-performance image intensifier designed for advanced night vision applications. Featuring an S25® multialkali photocathode and P43/P45 phosphor screen, it delivers superior sensitivity and image clarity under extremely low-light conditions. Equipped with auto-gating power supply and automatic brightness control (ABC), it ensures stable performance even in dynamic lighting environments. Its anti-fogging input window and rugged construction make it highly reliable in harsh operational environments. With a long service life (MTTF ≥ 10,000 hours) and excellent environmental adaptability, the LUX2-6425MW is ideal for integration into night vision goggles, weapon sights, and surveillance systems.
