Pre-loaded Filter Wheels
Our 5214 and 5215 pre-loaded wheels include 1.0 inch diameter filters made with Inconel metallic coatings on glass substrates. The filters are permanently built-into the filter wheel with epoxy. The filter positions are mechanically indexed for precise positioning. We mount the filters at a slight angle to reduce étalon effects, although there will be some residual étalon effects for beam diameters greater than a few millimeters.
Empty Filter Wheels
The 5253 and 5254 empty wheels safely hold individual filters in place by the included retaining rings which feature 1.040-32 thread and 20.7 mm clear aperture. This makes changing individual filters quick and easy. The filter positions are mechanically indexed for precise positioning.
