High-Performance UV Filters for Precision Applications

Key Characteristics That Set Our Filters Apart

Our UV filters are designed for compatibility with a wide range of systems, including benchtop and in situ systems for reliable performance in the lab as well as the field. And when it comes to UV filters, we understand that our customers have specific performance requirements. That’s why our filters are engineered to excel and feature:

• High Transmission: Maximum signal strength for sensitive measurements.

• Superior Out-of-Band Blocking: Exceptional signal-to-noise ratios by blocking unwanted light with options for blocking into the IR range when required.

• Steep Edge Transitions: Offering enhanced spectral discrimination for demanding UV applications.

• Narrow Bandwidths: Precise filtering for UV applications that demand exceptional spectral specificity.

• Durability: Designed to withstand harsh environments, including submersion or high-temperature conditions. Chroma filters are also designed to have a high damage threshold for working with intense laser or arc lamp sources.

• Customizable: Optical filter solutions designed to meet your specific size, shape, and spectral requirements.

Our filters are also optimized for detectors including photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) and silicon-based sensors. This compatibility ensures superior performance across various UV applications and is backed by our industry leading warranty.
