The
first affordable Thermal Weapon Sight designed specifically for Homeland
Security, Police and Security Professionals. Utilizing un-cooled
Microbolometer technology previously only available for Military
Applications, the Specter IR®
is a
completely passive infrared weapon sighting system which allows users to
identify the heat signatures of individuals or objects; day or night and
in rain, fog and smoke. As with previous models, no external light source is required, and the
unit may be used in complete darkness or broad daylight.
When viewed through the Specter IR®, heat-emitting objects such as humans and recently-operated vehicles stand out dramatically against their surroundings, defeating camouflage and other methods of visual concealment.
This 2nd Generation of the now-famous Specter IR® line, the SP50B is enhanced with a greater operating temperature range, improved detector, improved video output parameters and "Smart Reticle"
Built to the same legendary rugged standards as other ELCAN®
weapon sighting systems, the Specter IR®
is a shock and water-resistant sight
that will withstand the forces generated by repeated recoil. The
quick-detachable mount allows fast attachment to Mil-Std-1913
"Picatinny” rails and weapon receivers. Once sighted-in to a particular
weapon, the sight may be interchanged with other ELCAN®
optical and
electro-optical sights zeroed for the same weapon in a matter of seconds
and without noticeable change in point of impact. The electronic reticle
allows precise targeting of hostile threats.
When the crosshairs are moved across a Heat Signature,
the "Smart Reticle" changes color to provide maximum contrast against
its background, giving a "Lock On" effect.
The SpecterIR®
SP50B
operates on 3 Standard Lithium AA batteries and has auxiliary power
ports for optional external power sources (AC electrical outlets or
vehicle cigarette lighters). The NTSC compatible video output port
allows the image,
and reticle, to be
displayed on an external video monitor or recorded by video recorder.
When used solely as an observation device, the unit may be operated
hand-held or tripod mounted.
Weighing less than 3 pounds, the SpecterIR®
SP50B is a compact, yet
powerful, tool and is in current service with elite Military and
Security Professionals.
