The PVS-14 Gen 3 Pinnacle Night Vision Monocular from Sightmark is a mil-spec, multi-purpose NVD designed for tactical professionals. This configuration of the PVS-14 features a Pinnacle intensifier tube from ITT, provides 64lp/mm resolution and 25:1 signal-to-noise performance under nominal conditions.
An autogated power supply and minimal imaging artifacts separate the ITT Pinnacle from other Gen 3 tubes. Autogating allows the image intensifier to continuously adjust the voltage applied to its microchannel plate, resulting in optimal image quality, reduced blooming, and extended tube life. Like other Gen 3's, the Pinnacle features Automatic Brightness Control and auto-deactivation circuitry that protects the operator's eye when the NVD is exposed to excessive brightness.
A wide viewing angle and bright f/1.2 optics make the PVS-14 well-suited for aviation and close quarter combat. This versatile NVD has a 1/4" threaded socket and is compatible with a wide range of accessories for head gear, helmet, and weapon mounting, as well as image capture devices for recon and surveillance tasks.
In addition to its optical performance and functionality, the PVS-14 also meets Mil-Std 810G environmental specifications for temperature and water-resistance. The built-in infrared illuminator equips the PVS-14 for pitch dark observations right out of the box. Additionally, a 10-inch close focusing distance and broad diopter correction range help make Sightmark's version of the PVS-14 a full-featured NVD for wide-field observations.
