Product Description
The GPNVG18-W adopts a four-tube panoramic optical architecture with 1× magnification, allowing users to observe the surrounding environment without introducing additional optical magnification.
Its third-generation white phosphor image intensifier configuration produces a monochrome image designed for low-light observation. Automatic gain and brightness control help the system adapt to changing illumination conditions, while the gated power supply contributes to controlled image intensifier operation.
The viewing modules can be adjusted through a 130° tilt range on each side, allowing the configuration to be changed between single-tube and dual-tube viewing modes according to operational requirements.
For field use, the night vision goggle incorporates a helmet-mountable external battery configuration, low-battery indication, automatic standby and instant wake-up. The housing uses a high-strength, corrosion-resistant material with selected structural components manufactured from high-strength aluminum alloy.

Applications
The GPNVG18-W is intended for professional low-light observation and situational-awareness requirements, including:
Military and defense night observation
Law enforcement and tactical operations
Border and perimeter observation
Search and observation in low-light environments
Professional security and surveillance
Nighttime field operations
Government and institutional procurement
Specialized training and operational support
Its wide horizontal field of view is particularly useful in situations where maintaining peripheral environmental awareness is important.
Product Advantages
Panoramic Field Coverage
With a 98° horizontal FOV, the GPNVG18-W provides a substantially broader viewing area than many conventional narrow-field night vision configurations, helping users monitor more of their surroundings while moving.
Professional White Phosphor Configuration
The use of Gen 3 white phosphor image intensifier tubes provides a professional-grade night vision platform with defined image-performance specifications, including 64 lp/mm resolution, SNR 32 and FOM 2000.
Automatic System Management
Automatic gain, brightness and gated power functions reduce the need for continuous manual adjustment. Auto-standby and instant wake-up further support efficient field operation.
Flexible Viewing Configuration
The optical tubes can be tilted through 130° on each side, enabling the operator to switch between single-tube and dual-tube viewing configurations according to the required observation mode.
Built for Harsh Environments
The housing combines corrosion-resistant high-strength material with selected aluminum-alloy components. With an operating temperature range of -35°C to +55°C and IPX8 waterproof protection, the system is designed for demanding outdoor conditions.
Service-Oriented Design Philosophy
