ECHO IIT Series
For Commercial Use
ECHO image intensifiers are a high-performance, low-cost offering to the commercial market. This technology can offer ultra-fast Auto-Gating, a small halo, and the high resolution expected from a high-grade tube. Echo tubes are available in two high-performance grades in both green or white phosphor offering the best option for any user.
The ECHO technology is the commercial grade image intensifier tube, offering three high-performance levels: the ECHO+, the ECHO, and the ECHO14.
Although the ECHO+ offers a better FOM, the ECHO tube is ideal for those who want quality night vision at a reasonable price. The ECHO range of image intensifier tubes serves many night vision applications and makes them perfect for sport shooters, hunters, airsoft practioners, and night vision enthusiasts.
- Very good quality at an affordable price
- Well suited for airsofters & hunters
- Green or white phosphor
- Available in 16mm
Options available for 4G+ IIT Series

P43 Green Phosphor or P45 White Phosphor
The phosphor screen of the IIT converts the electron avalanche from the microchannel plate back into photons, resulting in the green image that has become the signature view in night vision technology.
White phosphor, or P45, provides excellent recognition and has similar decay time properties as the P43 (green) phosphor. In night vision, white phosphor IIT comes from the aviation and special operations world. While there are no « lab » performance differences between P43 & P45, the choice of phosphor remains an operator’s preference.
During trials of soldiers performance under green and white phosphor night vision, no combat effectiveness difference was found. That’s why phosphor color is often a personal preference, the most important criteria being for the operator to have as less eye fatigue as possible.
Image Intensifier Tube | 16MM
We offer a unique version – 16mm format intensifier tube. This new standard has enabled the design of modern, lighter and smaller night vision binoculars.
Reducing the load on a soldier is a constant challenge. We can notice a real evolution concerning the size and weight of our image intensifier tubes. We talk about SWaP: Size Weight and Power.
Reduction of SWaP contributes to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of armed forces. Night vision devices that are designed around the 16mm IIT offer the tremendous advantage of having the same level of performance as those based upon the 18 mm intensifier tube, but with significantly reduced weight.
