Pulsar Helion 2 XP50

Product detailed description

The Helion 2 uses a microbolometer with a NETD sensitivity of < 40 millikelvin (mK), which characterizes the sensor's ability to distinguish between two nearby points with the smallest possible temperature difference. The lower the NETD value, the better the sensor can detect small temperature differences between objects and separate them from ambient thermal noise. For example, during precipitation, fog or a cold morning, when the surrounding environment has low temperature contrast and these are the most difficult conditions for thermal imaging, in this case, due to the high sensitivity, the sensor will be able to distinguish the smallest temperature differences and the sight will provide the hunter with a clear image with better contrast.

High resolution image
A sharp image with high contrast helps to better identify animals, their limbs and even the smallest details such as branches, leaves, grass and terrain.

Variable digital zoom
Up to 8x digital zoom provides better recognition of objects viewed at a greater distance. Change the magnification badly with both quick jumps and fine smooth adjustments.

Image Boost Technology
Image Boost Technology is a patented combination of software algorithms that increase the sharpness of thermal object contours to deliver unparalleled image quality. Image Boost will make the image appear sharper, with very good rendering of even the smallest details of thermal objects, allowing for better detection and identification.

Full-colour AMOLED display
The full-colour display uses AMOLED technology, which provides high contrast between white and black, and displays in very vivid colours. AMOLED technology also has the advantage of smooth displaying without slowdown even at very low temperatures and energy saving.

Integrated photo and video recorder
The built-in video recorder is a great asset when it comes to filming or photographing once-in-a-lifetime experiences. One press of the REC button captures footage that can be easily shared with colleagues, friends and family. 16 GB of internal memory provides many hours for recording video and or to store lots of photos.

16 GB of internal memory
16 GB of internal memory offers plenty of space for recording and capturing exciting moments. Recorded files can later be downloaded to your computer or smartphone.

Detection distance over 1800m
The powerful lens combined with a professional temperature sensor with NETD sensitivity < 40 mK gives the device exceptional detection capabilities. A standard 1.8 m high object can be detected in complete darkness at a distance of up to 1800 m.

Start in 3 seconds
An exclusive electronic circuitry scheme allows the instrument to be switched on almost instantly. The fast start helps to save energy and extends the overall operating time. Once switched off, the device can be reactivated within 3 seconds.

8 colour palettes
Different colour combinations of the image display are suitable for different viewing conditions. The Helion 2 thermal imager offers up to 8 colour display palettes. While the classic "White Hot" mode is extremely versatile, the "Hot Black" mode is often preferred for detecting wildlife at night. Red monochrome reduces glare to the eye from the brightness of the display. Sepia color often improves long distance viewing, while "Red Hot", "Rainbow" and "Ultramarine" render temperature differences of different objects better. Purple helps to identify objects more quickly.

Wi-Fi. Integration with IOS and Android devices
Built-in Wi-Fi module provides convenient connection of the thermal imager with Android or iOS smartphones or tablets. The combination of smartphone and thermal imager offers a number of unique features such as preview and direct image streaming, convenient control of all device functions via smartphone, downloading and sharing of recorded files, firmware updates and many more.

Picture-in-Picture
The "picture-in-picture" feature displays an additional window with a 2x magnified image. The window is centered at the top of the screen and only takes up 1/10 of the total image area. The user sees a wide view of the entire field of view of the instrument and a magnified preview at the same time.

Waterproof IPX7
The IPX7 waterproof protection protects the device against rain, snow and dust and keeps the device operational even after immersion in water up to 1 meter deep for up to 30 minutes.

50 Hz refresh rate
High frame rate is important when tracking fast moving targets. The high refresh rate ensures smooth motion in real time, without slowing down and jerking the image.,

B-Pack Power System
The Helion 2 uses the progressive B-Pack system for power, which consists of a 6.4 A-h IPS7 quick-change rechargeable battery pack providing up to 8 hours of operation. A more powerful IPS14 battery pack or a container for conventional AA batteries is also available to serve as an off-grid power solution.

Wide operating temperature range

The Helion 2 thermal imager's use of a freeze-resistant AMOLED display and B-Pack power supply gives the assurance of a flawless display over an extremely wide operating temperature range of -25°C ... +50°?

Display Off

During short observation breaks to save power supply energy and improve masking effect, the display off function can be used. When the function is activated, the other scope circuits are active and display resumption occurs immediately.

User-friendly operation

The operation of the Helion 2 thermal imager is simple and intuitive. The controls are positioned for convenient one-handed operation. All settings are clearly arranged in menus. When displaying menus and changing parameter settings, their current values are displayed off-centre and illustrated for better readability by shading. This avoids obscuring the center of the image and allows the user to continue to track the target comfortably. Important setting information is always displayed in the lower status bar.
