Kowa LM15FC-R: Precision Imaging in Radiation-Challenging Environments
In environments where radiation exposure is a constant reality, traditional optical lenses often degrade over time — suffering from glass discoloration that reduces light transmission and compromises image quality. The Kowa LM15FC-R was purpose-built to overcome these challenges, delivering clear, distortion-free images even under prolonged radiation exposure.
Equipped with radiation-resistant coatings and a 15mm focal length, this lens is designed for high-precision performance in demanding applications, from nuclear research facilities and particle accelerator labs to space exploration projects. Its rugged construction also incorporates water- and dust-resistant sealing, ensuring reliability in both controlled and harsh industrial settings.
Engineered for High-Resolution Demands
The LM15FC-R supports 1.1” sensors with resolutions up to 24 megapixels, producing sharp, detailed imagery with exceptional contrast. Its wide iris range (F2.8–F10) offers excellent flexibility for varying light conditions, while the double-nut focus mechanism allows for exact, stable focusing adjustments — essential for critical monitoring tasks.
Tailored to Your Application
Each LM15FC-R lens is built to order, enabling configuration to suit unique project requirements. Whether you need optimized iris control, precise focus tuning, or compatibility with specialized imaging systems, this lens can be adapted to your needs.
