The 49-091 50 x 50 mm SCHOTT KG3 Heat Absorbing Glass IR Cut-Off Filter is a specialized optical component designed for applications that require the removal of infrared radiation while maintaining high transmittance for visible light. This filter, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a rectangular piece of color glass, with dimensions of 50 x 50 mm and a thickness of 3 mm.
The filter is made from SCHOTT KG3 glass, a material known for its excellent heat absorbing properties. It is designed to cut off infrared radiation below 300 nm and above 2700 nm, making it ideal for applications where infrared radiation needs to be controlled or eliminated. The filter's coating, EDM 49-087, is applied to both the front and back surfaces, further enhancing its performance and durability.
This filter is a Thin Lens type, which means it has been precisely shaped to focus light. This makes it suitable for use in imaging systems, spectroscopy, and other applications where precise light control is required. The filter's geometry, with a width of 50 mm, a height of 50 mm, and a thickness of 3 mm, is designed to provide a balance between compactness and robustness.
The 49-091 filter is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase from Edmund Optics. It is accompanied by a catalog number, 49-091, which can be used for easy identification and tracking. For more information, including pricing and availability, please visit the provided weblink.
