High gain; high resolution
Specialised Imaging lens intensifiers are a family of custom designed-gated
image intensifier systems to improve the sensitivity of high-speed video
and image converter cameras.
Extensive triggering facilities allow the SIL to be readily interfaced
to most manufacturer's high-speed cameras, and in particular to high-speed
video systems.
Constructed around high-gain, microchannel plate image intensifiers, these
units provide a wide range of sensitivity, gain and resolution options
to satisfy even the most demanding imaging applications.
The comprehensive range of operating parameters are programmed from the
intuitive local keypad or from a remote PC via Ethernet link, which also
allows archiving and loading of timing set-ups.
