Infrared Block & Visible Pass Filters
Infrared blocking filters are designed to reject unwanted infrared wavelengths while maintaining high visible light transmission.
These filters are widely used in colour imaging applications to improve colour rendition, eliminate infrared contamination and enhance image quality.

BP550 NIR-UV Block / Visible Pass FilterFull visible transmission with UV and infrared blocking |
|
|
The BP550 filter is designed for colour imaging applications where ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths must be blocked while maintaining accurate visible colour rendition. This filter effectively passes visible light without discolouring the image while also serving as a protective dust cover. The hard-coated low-expansion glass construction provides excellent thermal stability and durability in demanding lighting environments. Extended infrared rejection out to approximately 1550nm provides improved heat removal compared with standard hot mirror filters. |

|---|---|
| Transmission | Passes 410-690nm |
| Blocking Range | Reflects 350-400nm and 710-1550nm |
| Features | Anti-reflection coating, heat resistant coatings and high visible transmission |
| Suitable For | Colour imaging systems without integrated IR filtering |
SP645 Mid-Red / NIR Dichroic Block FilterHigh performance red and infrared blocking filter |
|
|
SP645 filters block much of the red and near infrared spectrum, making them ideal for CCD and CMOS sensor integration. The steep transition point and excellent infrared rejection provide superior colour balance and imaging performance. These filters are also useful for suppressing the glow from hot metals, glass and other high temperature materials.

SP700 Hot Mirror / NIR Dichroic Block FilterStandard infrared blocking for monochrome camera systems |
|
|
SP700 filters provide broad visible light transmission together with strong infrared blocking performance. This extended hot mirror filter continues infrared rejection out to approximately 1550nm. The low-expansion Borofloat substrate and anti-reflection coatings improve transmission while reducing glare. SP700 filters are commonly used in monochrome imaging systems and heat rejection applications.

SP730 Hot Mirror / NIR Colourless Block FilterInfrared blocking filter designed for colour camera systems |
|
|
SP730 filters provide excellent colour rendition by preserving the full visible spectrum while blocking infrared wavelengths. These crystal-clear hot mirror filters are designed for colour cameras without integrated IR blocking filters. The hard-coated low-expansion substrate provides excellent heat resistance and long-term stability. SP730 filters are also suitable for suppressing the glow from hot metals, glass and high-temperature materials. |
