Aluminum Alloy Night Vision Goggles Mount NVG Arms Mount for PVS-7 PVS-14 PVS-15 PVS-18 helmet mount

The Night Vision Goggle Mount is a precision-machined, highly adjustable, modular mount.  It provides an extremely stable platform for attaching almost every type of night vision goggle used by the Department of Defense and Law Enforcement communities.  As its name implies, it is an extremely low-profile NVG mount.  It is designed to the be lowest possible profile of any removable NVG mount on the market in both the active and stowed positions.  This geometry is very beneficial in the field as it presents a reduced snag hazard.

Like the other mounts in Norotos’Hyper Series,itsfeatures a fully modular interface system.  Users can change mount interfaces between dovetail (included) and bayonet horn (sold separately) without tools, in the field.  The horn interface is compatible with the AN/PVS-7B, AN/PVS-7D, AN/PVS-14.  The dovetail interface is compatible with the AN/PVS-15, AN/PVS-18, AN/PVS-31, BNVD-G, TNV/Sentinel.  Interfaces are easily swapped without tools by manipulating a spring-loaded capture pin and sliding them off the adjustment rail.  Vertical adjustment is accomplished with ease by rotating a locking lever on top of the mount before sliding the mount up and down the vertical rail.  When the desired height is found, the lever is locked down.

Its features a Force-to-Overcome mechanism.  When the user wants to stow the goggle, he simply pushes if upwards to overcome the detent.  To reengage the goggle, the user simply pulls it down.  This gross-motion mechanism is the simplest way to use a night vision mount.

It also features a breakaway system for use during high-intensity activities where a night vision goggle could impact an outside surface and become damaged.  A shuttle switch allows the user to set the mount to either locked or breakaway mode.  When locked, the mount will not will come loose from the shroud without pushing the release button.  In breakaway mode, the mount will release from the shroud under a user-specified amount of force.  This is extremely useful during activities where the NVG and mount can become snagged on other gear or surfaces.  Smacking a stowed NVG on a surface during activities such as fast rope and vehicle dismount can snap the user’s head back and severely injure his/her neck.  It can also cause damage to the mounted NVG.  But, if the mount has a breakaway system like the Hyper Series, it will pop loose from the shroud.  Assuming the goggle is dummy-corded to the helmet, the user will have retain it while saving his neck.  The Hyper Series Break-Away mode is user-adjustable.  A top-mounted set screw allows operators to determine how many foot/pounds pressure are required to pop the mount loose.
