AquaShieldIR™ Hydrophobic Coating for IR Maritime and Naval Security &Surveillance

AquaShieldIR™ coatings have undergone rigorous testing, surpassing the requirements set by the MIL 810 standard for durability testing in salt fog and salt solution. By setting the highest standards, we ensure a long-lifetime expectancy, making our coatings ideal for extreme sea environments.

Maritime and naval environments present challenges with high humidity and salt spray, significantly limiting the lifetime of traditional coatings. At Ophir, we rise above these challenges by exceeding the MIL 810 standard requirements. AquaShieldIR™ coatings have been extensively tested for 14 days in a salt fog chamber, showcasing exceptional durability and longevity.

1. Water Repellency: AquaShieldIR™ creates a water-repellent surface on IR imaging lenses, preventing water droplets from adhering. This feature ensures clarity and visibility, even in rainy or foggy conditions, allowing naval and maritime personnel to effectively monitor and respond to security threats.
2. Enhanced Visibility in Wet Conditions: By repelling water droplets, AquaShieldIR™ enables IR imaging lenses to perform optimally in wet conditions. Whether it's rain, fog, or operating in a maritime environment, AquaShieldIR™ ensures clear imaging and reliable performance.
3. Improved Image Quality: AquaShieldIR™ prevents water droplets and contaminants from adhering to the lens surface, resulting in improved image quality. This helps reduce distortion or degradation and ensures accurate detection and identification of objects, vessels, or individuals, even in adverse weather conditions.

AquaShieldIR™ has been meticulously developed and rigorously tested to meet the demanding needs of maritime and naval security and surveillance applications. Our commitment to exceed industry standards and deliver exceptional performance ensures that our coatings provide unmatched protection, visibility, and image quality in the harshest environments. When it comes to safeguarding coastal areas and maritime operations, Ophir is the trusted partner you can rely on.
