Overview

  • NATO Stock Number

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, and objects hidden by vegetation or merged with underlying terrain. A distinctive feature of this binocular is an integrated compact laser rangefinder of 1550 nm that accurately measures distance on the distant range.
The high-performance capabilities of the optical system, an extended set of functions and the 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 a far infrared band (LWIR) with resolution and sensitivity within 20-30 mK. The binocular has two built-in colour high-resolution microdisplays and eyepieces with diopter adjustment and the ability to adjust the distance between the eyes.
Several set colour schemes allow choosing the necessary display option depending on the tasks performed.

Optical scheme of the device

The Archer TGX-8/75 features a 3x optical magnification system paired with a 640 x 512 thermal detector. The
display interface provides real-time status indicators including operational modes, system status, and battery level. The device includes adjustable brightness and contrast controls.

Key Features

The Archer TGX-8/75 thermal binoculars are designed in shockproof, waterproof aluminum housing with ergonomically positioned controls. Power is supplied by 6 AA batteries (compatible with lithium or rechargeable cells). Advanced electronics enable comprehensive functionality while maintaining compact dimensions and optimized power efficiency.
