Longpass Colour Filters

Longpass colour filters transmit longer visible and infrared wavelengths while blocking shorter wavelengths such as ultraviolet and blue light.

These filters are used to improve contrast and resolution in monochrome imaging systems and can assist with colour separation applications.

Longpass Colour Filters

Filter Models

Improved contrast

Enhances subject separation in monochrome imaging applications.

UV blocking

Blocks ultraviolet and shorter visible wavelengths.

Broad spectral transmission

Passes longer visible and infrared wavelengths.

Alternative to bandpass filters

Can be used where broad wavelength blocking is sufficient.

LP500 Yellow Longpass Filter

Blocks most blue and ultraviolet wavelengths

LP500 filters are designed to improve contrast and resolution in monochrome camera systems.

These filters block ultraviolet and shorter visible wavelengths while passing longer visible and infrared wavelengths.

Longpass filters are commonly used with monochromatic LED and laser diode illumination systems.

In many machine vision applications, a bandpass filter such as the BP525 may provide improved ambient light suppression.

LP515 Yellow-Orange Longpass Filter

Blocks all blue and ultraviolet wavelengths

LP515 filters improve contrast and image resolution in monochrome imaging applications.

These filters block ultraviolet and blue wavelengths while transmitting longer visible and infrared light.

LP515 filters are often specified for use with monochromatic LED and laser diode illumination.

For applications requiring stronger ambient light rejection, a BP535 bandpass filter may be a more suitable alternative.
