The SupIR-X 15–300 mm f/4.0 from MKS-Ophir is a rugged mid-wave infrared (MWIR) thermal imaging lens engineered for professional unmanned platforms and advanced electro-optical payloads. Designed for 10 µm SXGA MWIR detectors, the lens covers 3.6–4.2 µm and 3.6–4.9 µm spectral ranges, providing sharp thermal imagery across a continuous zoom range. Its integrated mechanical shutter supports rapid non-uniformity correction (NUC), maintaining image uniformity during long operational cycles.
Built for demanding field environments, the SupIR-X offers a 45° to 2.4° horizontal field of view within a compact, lightweight form factor measuring Ø93.4 × 132 mm and weighing approximately 1 kg. The design ensures durability with IP67 front-element sealing and a wide operating temperature range from –32°C to +80°C. Compatible with 19.4 mm and 20.5 mm cold shield heights, the SupIR-X can be configured with optional extenders—30–600 mm, 35–690 mm, 45–900 mm, and 60–1200 mm—for extended detection and identification ranges.
