NVBS-15

Dual Tube Binocular System

The NVBS-15 is a lightweight, ruggedized dual-tube night vision goggle system and designed for submersion to a depth of 20 meters. It features self-contained single battery power and can be hand held, head mounted or helmet mounted for hands-free tactical operations.

The NVBS-15 takes advantage of the dual-tube design to provide increased depth perception to the user for land, sea, or airborne operations. Battery usage is one AA 1.5 volt battery or one CR123 3 volt Lithium battery. The system projects IR illumination that can be collimated to a spot or a flood through the use of the IR Spot/Flood lens adjuster. Two micro LED indicator lights in the eyepieces give the user low battery and IR on indications for increased system awareness.

Extended Operation - The NVBS-15 has an optional external battery pack that allows for extended missions. Add to that the capability of a 3X magnifier press-on lens (2), and now you have a 3X Binocular system with enhanced capability and performance.

Rugged Design - The system has been designed to be submersible to 20m, withstand salt fog, high humidity, high altitude, cold weather, shock, and high temperatures. The unit also uses a shoe style head/helmet mount interface design that makes for a more “stable” mount platform.

High Performance - Using High quality optics that are coated to enhance night time operations the NVBS-15 can out perform all other systems on the market. Add Nivisys high performance Gen II1 tubes and you have the ultimate in night vision.
