L-PCX219 30 mm Dia. Plano-Convex Lens; EFL=150mm Uncoated

The L-PCX219 is a 30 mm diameter Plano-Convex lens, sourced from the renowned optical components vendor, Ross Optical. This lens is specifically designed for use in optical systems that require a convex lens with a flat surface on one side.

The lens has an effective focal length (EFL) of 150mm, making it suitable for applications that require moderate to high magnification. The EFL is a critical parameter in lens selection, as it directly influences the magnification and field of view of the optical system.

The L-PCX219 features a base shape of a circle, which is a common design for lenses due to its symmetry and ease of integration into optical systems. The lens's geometry includes a thickness of 2mm at the edge and 3.5mm at the center, providing structural integrity and ensuring minimal distortion.

The lens is made from N-BK7 Schott, a high-quality optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and durability. This material is widely used in various optical applications, including imaging, beam shaping, and laser systems.

The L-PCX219 is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties or protect it from environmental factors. While coatings can improve the performance of a lens, an uncoated lens can be a cost-effective solution for applications where such enhancements are not necessary.

This lens is designed to work with a wavelength of 587.6nm, a common wavelength used in various optical applications. The lens's shape is spherical, a common design for lenses due to its simplicity and ease of manufacturing.
