YAG Laser Lens Protectors
The Lens Protector establishes nobility as a shield against airborne particles (back spatter, fumes) and the variety of contaminants surrounding the work area. It is a cost effective solution to maximize the productive life of a YAG laser system designed for cutting, welding or laser engraving. It is an excellent value added benefit for laser operators, who are particularly pleased with the savings Lens Protectors can offer since the degradation and replacement of laser components is reduced significantly.
The Lens Protector is a precision fabricated optic made from high purity specialty quartz that possesses material properties which are most suitable for YAG lasers. Specifically, it is an extremely low absorption material to minimize heating and its extremely low coefficient of thermal expansion results in an excellent thermal shock resistance that is superior to ordinary glasses. To further enhance performance, a high damage threshold anti-reflection coating is applied to provide for more than 99.5% transmission and reflection losses less than 0.25% per surface which translates into use with 1030nm, 1064nm and 1070nm CW and pulsed lasers.
REFLEX Analytical reiterates and does not recommend the use of coated or uncoated BK-7 glass or other glass materials since they absorb higher levels of heat which leads to a much shorter productive life and system component failure.
The order details are provided below for industry standard diameters (50mm, 55mm and 134mm). Unit pricing is based on in-stock status. If the stock is depleted, unit pricing is subject to change and becomes based on current material availability, production criteria and related costs. Custom components are encouraged and available upon request.
