Camera Tubes

Narragansett Imaging is the only company in the world that manufactures Plumbicon camera tubes. We manufacture a full line of premium Plumbicon camera tubes for x-ray imaging and other diagnostics. In comparison to other image tube technologies, Plumbicon tubes offer high resolution, low lag and superior image quality.

Although Newvicon and Vidicon tubes are also available from Narragansett Imaging many of our Plumbicon tubes can operate as direct replacements for Saticon, Vidicon and Newvicon tubes. See the cross reference chart to find the correct Plumbicon tube for your application.

Narragansett Imaging also still offers camera tubes for Broadcast cameras.

For ordering information please contact Narragansett Imaging or your nearest distributor.
