The 14-506 is a rectangular filter from Edmund Optics, designed with a base shape of 50 x 50 mm and a thickness of 2 mm. This filter is a Color Glass type, specifically an OG570, which is known for its orange hue. The material ID for this filter is UVFS MAL-1965.
The filter's primary function is to allow light of longer wavelengths to pass through while blocking or reducing light of shorter wavelengths. This is achieved through a cut-on wavelength of 570 nm, which is the point at which the filter begins to transmit light. The cut-off wavelength, on the other hand, is 0 nm, indicating that the filter allows all wavelengths shorter than 570 nm to pass through.
The 14-506 features a coating on both the front and back surfaces, identified as EDM 14-506. This coating enhances the filter's performance and durability. The filter's geometry and physical data suggest that it is designed for use in a Thin Lens configuration.
