SEB20 multi-channel thermal imaging system completes environmental qualification

SEB20 has completed an environmental qualification campaign spanning MIL-STD-810 vibration and shock profiles through to IP68 immersion testing.

The SEB20 multi-channel thermal imaging system — developed by Inventra Mühendislik for weapon stations, sighting systems and commander periscopes — has completed its environmental qualification campaign.

During the campaign the system was subjected to MIL-STD-810 random vibration and mechanical shock profiles, temperature-humidity cycling across its operating range, and IP68 sealing verification. Testing was carried out at Inventra’s OSTİM Integration & Test Centre.

SEB20 combines a 1920×1080p daylight channel, a 1280×1024p MWIR thermal channel, a 32 km laser rangefinder and an optional 5 km laser designator in a single 18.4 kg enclosure. Its stabilised optical path is designed to preserve line-of-sight (LOS) stability under vibration.

A sentence of the kind that usually gets left off an announcement: the paragraph above is a summary, not a qualification claim, because it names methods without naming the procedure, the severity or the configuration that went with each of them. Those are the terms that make a campaign comparable to anyone else’s, and they are in the test report rather than in this article. The report is issued on request during quotation, and it is the document to ask for if you are comparing SEB20 against something else.
