The MUM-14, also referred to as MiNi-14, standing for Multi-Use Mini Monocular is one of the smallest housings for MX-10160 format image intensifier tubes developed and designed by Insight Technology.
Overview
Nowadays the MUM-14 is manufactured by Nivisys Industries LLV.
It is smaller and lighter (~280g including the CR123A battery) than the AN/PVS-14, yet features a comparable or even potentially better optical performance.
Two monocular devices can be combined into a binocular system using a mounting bridge, and while giving the ability to see stereoscopically, it is heavier than dedicated binocular systems, and cannot be collimated.
The MUM-14 can be hand-held, head-mounted, helmet-mounted, camera/camcorder adapted or weapons mounted as a night scope.
IEA Mil-Optics GmbH rebranded it as Night-Tronic NT940.
Features
- Integrated IR illuminator
- MIL-STD-810G rated
- Waterproof up to 20m
- 40 degrees of FOV
- No manual-gain control
