The Pulsar Axion Key XM30 is the follow on from the old Pulsar Quantum lite designed to be an entry level yet quality thermal imager that provides most users all they need in terms of a thermal imager. With detection ranges of up to 1200m and native magnification of up to 2.5x with optimal 4x digital zoom, depending on the model.
The Pulsar Axion Key XM30 has many new and important features, first and foremost is its sensor. The Pulsar Axion Key XM30 Thermal Imaging Monocular uses a new 320x240 thermal sensor with a 12µm pixel pitch, which also helps to reduce overall unit size. This reduction in pixel pitch will result in images having smoother edges, more detailed thermal mapping and offer a greater ability to recognise and identify objects over an equivalent sized sensor with a 17µm pixel pitch.
The Pulsar Axion Key XM30 is perfectly suited to outdoor conditions, with a robust magnesium bodyshell, an IPX7 protection rating (fully waterproof), 960x720 LCOS (Key models) and 1024x768 AMOLED (Non-Key models) HD micro-displays and can perform in both hot & freezing temperatures. The Pulsar Axion Key XM30 comes equipped with its own internal stadiametric rangefinder, which helps aid observers in estimating target distances with the height of known objects. Additionally, Axion units have up to eight colour palettes to help enhance observation in varying conditions. Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode, upon activation, displays a second image with magnification in the top part of the Axion's display screen. This small image helps to zoom in on a target while retaining the rest of the field of view, maximising situational awareness.
