CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The housing is typically made of aluminum alloy (e.g., Al6061-T6) for structural support and sealing. The window is made of infrared-transparent materials such as germanium, zinc selenide, or silicon, depending on the application's wavelength requirements.
The component is designed for an operating pressure of 1.0–1.6 MPa and an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. Outside these ranges, seal integrity may fail, so verify the specific model's limits.
For the 8–14 μm infrared range, optical transmittance is ≥92% (ISO 10110-4). Surface flatness is λ/4 at 633 nm (ISO 10110-5), and surface quality is 60–40 scratch-dig (ISO 10110-7). These ensure optical performance but must be confirmed for the actual model.
The component offers ingress protection ratings from IP54 to IP65 (IEC 60529), providing dust-tight and water-resistant performance. The specific rating depends on the model and configuration.
