Archer TGX-8/75

360°

Purpose

Thermal imaging binocular Archer TGX-3/75 (hereinafter referred to as the Binocular) is a modern compact optoelectronic device designed for:

  • searching, detecting and monitoring of targets and objects of thermal contrast in all lighting conditions and poor visibility, against the background of vegetation and its surroundings, or other objects of natural and artificial origin that match the colour and shape of the surroundings;
  • active measurement of the distance (rangefinding) to the selected object (target) using a laser rangefinder that is safe for the human eye (class 1 according to DSTU EN 60825-1);
  • determining own coordinates and coordinates of the selected object (target);
  • video recording of the image on the built-in flash memory.

Feature

Thermal imaging binocular ARCHER TGX-8/75 is an ultramodern compact optical device, designed for monitoring and observing areas in limited visibility conditions: poor lighting, smoke, fog, objects hidden by vegetation or merged with underlying terrain. A distinctive feature of this binocular is an integrated compact laser rangefinder of 1550 nm range that allows to accurately measure distance on the distant range.
High-performance capabilities of optical system, an extended set of functions and ergonomic design of ARCHER TGX-8/75 make it an indispensable device for a wide range of applications

 

Infrared receiver

The device is equipped with a highly sensitive passive receiver of far infrared band (LWIR) with resolution and sensitivity within ‹30 mK. A binocular has two built-in colour high-resolution micro displays and eyepieces with diopter adjustment and the ability to adjust the distance between the eyes.
Several set colour schemes allow to choose the necessary display option depending on the tasks performed.

Optical scheme of the device

An optical circuitry of ARCHER TGX-8/75 provides 3x digital zoom (using a detector with 640 х 512 resolution) or 6x digital zoom (using a detector with 336 х 256 resolution).
Operation modes, device status, battery discharge are indicated on the display of the device. There are also modes of brightness and contrast control.
The device is equipped with sensors of proximity that much reduce the risk of disclosure.
The design of ARCHER TGX-8/75 comes in a shockproof waterproof plastic housing with conveniently arranged controls. Power is supplied via 6 AA type batteries (lithium batteries or rechargeable batteries).
Due to high-tech electronics unit excellent functional capacities of the device are realized by minimal dimensions and power consumption.

Живлення та енергоефективність

Живлення здійснюється від шести елементів типу AA (літієві батареї або акумулятори), що забезпечує тривалий час автономної роботи. Використання передових компонентів електронного блоку дозволило досягти широкого функціонального потенціалу при мінімальних розмірах і низькому рівні енергоспоживання.
