The 48-755-INK is a Plano-Convex lens, a type of spherical lens, sourced from Edmund Optics. This lens, with a diameter of 18.0mm, is designed for use in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, specifically between 600-1050nm. The lens features a front and back coating of edm nir-i std curve, providing enhanced performance in the NIR range.
The lens has a thickness of 1.51mm at the edge and 3mm at the center, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 54.0mm. The radius of curvature for the first surface (R1) is 27.91mm, and the back focal length (BFL) is 52.02mm. The lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold.
The lens is inked, a process that involves applying a dye to the edge of the lens to indicate its orientation. This is particularly useful in applications where the lens may be installed in a system where the orientation is not immediately apparent.
The item data provided does not include information about the lens's mounting or housing, so it is assumed to be a bare lens. Users should ensure they have the necessary components to mount and secure the lens in their application.
