MX10160 White Phosphor NVT5 FOM1600

The MX10160 is a type of image intensifier tube designed for night vision applications. It converts low-light images into visible light, allowing users to see in dark conditions. Here’s a brief introduction to its characteristics and features:

Key Features:

1. High Sensitivity: The MX10160 is designed to operate in very low light conditions, making it suitable for a variety of nighttime applications, including military, law enforcement, and surveillance.
2. Resolution: The tube typically offers good resolution, enabling the user to see detailed images in low-light environments.
3. Gain: The MX10160 provides high gain, which enhances the brightness of the image produced. This is crucial for applications where every bit of light is essential.
4. Phosphor Screen: The output image is displayed on a phosphor screen, which converts the intensifier’s output into visible light. Different phosphor (white or green) materials can be used to produce various colors of output.
5. Durability: These tubes are built to withstand harsh conditions, making them suitable for tactical and rugged uses.
6. Applications: Common applications include military night vision goggles, surveillance cameras, and various optical devices that require enhanced vision in low-light situations.

Operation Principle:

The MX10160 works by capturing ambient light and amplifying it through a process involving a photocathode, microchannel plate, and phosphor screen. The photocathode converts incoming photons into electrons, which are then accelerated and amplified by the microchannel plate before striking the phosphor screen to create a visible image.

Conclusion:

Overall, the MX10160 image intensifier tube is a key component in modern night vision systems, providing enhanced visibility in darkness and enabling users to perform tasks that would otherwise be challenging or impossible without sufficient light.  We are a professional supplier of NNVT night vision tube manufacturers and can provide MX10160 Gen 2 and MX10160 Gen 3 image tubes.
