Bandpass filters for the Industry
Schneider-Kreuznach magnetron sputtered industrial bandpass filters impress with steep slopes and high transmission at stable cut-on and cut-off wavelengths. The very flat surface makes them ideal for high end inspection systems. Schneider-Kreuznach bandpass filters are RoHS conform. Custom sizes are available on request.
What is the function of a bandpass filter?
An optical bandpass filter is used in the industry to selectively transmit light of a particular range of wavelengths while blocking others. It is designed to allow light with a specific frequency range to pass through while rejecting unwanted light outside that range.
Where is a bandpass filter used?
In industrial applications, optical bandpass filters are used to improve the quality and accuracy of imaging systems such as cameras and microscopes. They can be used to enhance contrast, reduce noise, and eliminate unwanted background light.

Applications & Markets of Bandpass filters
Traffic and surveillance
Traffic and surveillance systems use cameras and image processing to monitor and manage traffic flow and public safety.
Bioanalytics and Medical
Bioanalytical and medical applications isolate wavelengths with bandpass filters to detect biomolecules and cellular structures.
Mounts for Bandpass filter
C-Mount
Defined by 1” (25.4mm) diameter and 32 turns per inch pitch, C-Mount thread is a popular camera mount in machine vision industry. Schneider-Kreuznach offers for most filters a CMT mount option. So that filters can go in any C-Mount based mechanics in vision systems.
Another popular application, CMT mounts can easyly be used for, is placing a filter in front of the sensor into the camera. The extension of the back flange distance has to be considered for imaging applications.
Key features:
• Fits in C-Mount cameras
• Black Anodized Brass
Applications:
• To be mounted in C-Mount cameras
• Vision Systems based on C-Mount mechanics

| 1'' - 32 | 25.4 mm | 21.1 mm | 3.6 mm |
SH-Mount
Schneider-Kreuznach offers a variety of mounts with common thread sizes to fit on most camera lens systems. SH-Mount is the standard, when high flexibility is needed. Filters are held by retainer rings. SH-Mounts are extreme robust.
All SH-Mounts have a female and male M-thread, and can be stacked if several filters must be combined.
Key features:
• Stackable
• Robust
• Black Anodized Brass
Applications:
• Mounted on lenses in imaging applications
• Mounted on measurement instruments

SN1-Mount
SN1-Mount was designed for in machine vision industry popular M30.5x0.5 thread. With its high clear aperture, vignetting can be avoided, even for wide angle applications. The filter is glued into the mount, in order to secure it against vibrations when integrated into robots or production lines. It is ideal to be used in automated fabrication.
SN1-Mounts have a male and female M-thread, and can be stacked if several filters must be combined.
Key features:
• Maximum Clear Aperture
• No vignetting
• Stackable
• Robust
• Black Anodized Brass
Applications:
• Mounted on lenses in imaging applications
• Mounted on measurement instruments

Product highlights
Bandpass - IF BP 660-60 HT
The bandpass 660-60 is an interference filter that blocks all wavelengths except red light in the wavelength range of 660nm. This eliminates unwanted light. The corresponding LED (660 nm) or laser with a wavelength of 660 nm is optimally visible. The steep edges of the filter allow maximum light output from the LED. Necessary light is not lost. The result is a massive increase in contrast and an improvement in image quality.
Environmental Facts of the bandpass filters
Our industrial optical bandpass filters are tested to DIN standards to ensure they meet stringent environmental requirements. These tests check the durability of the bandpass filters, their resistance to temperature changes and their ability to withstand exposure to harsh chemicals and other environmental stressors. This ensures that the bandpass filters are up to the task in demanding industrial applications, providing consistent performance and reliability over time.
