The 14BCX175-2-2 is a double-convex lens with a diameter of 50.8 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. This lens is sourced from Standa, a reputable vendor known for their high-quality optical components. The lens features an effective focal length (EFL) of 175mm, which is a crucial factor in determining the lens's magnification and field of view.
The lens is made from UVFS material with a Mal-1965 ID. This material is specifically designed for use in the ultraviolet spectrum, making this lens an excellent choice for applications that involve UV light. The lens's wavelength is 355nm, further emphasizing its suitability for UV applications.
The geometry of the lens is also noteworthy. It has a thickness of 3mm at the edge and 7mm at the center. The first radius of curvature (R1) is 165.501448, while the second radius of curvature (R2) is -165.501448. The lens's inner and outer radii are both 0, indicating a simple, double-convex design.
The lens does not come with any coating, which may be a consideration depending on the specific application. However, its uncoated status can make it more versatile, as coatings can sometimes introduce unwanted reflections or other optical effects.
