PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

◢Introduction of Optical Glass Domes



Optical glass domes are essential components that are widely used in underwater detection equipment. They are made of optical glass substrate, which is known for its superior optical properties, such as high transparency, refractive index, and low dispersion. These properties make the glass substrates ideal for designing lenses and other optical elements used in underwater detection equipment.The optical dome is an important component in submersibles, it has a wide angle and can be protective of the deep-sea camera.

The optical glass domes consist of two concentric spherical lenses, which are designed to offer maximum light transmission while minimizing reflection and refraction losses. The first lens is the outer dome, which is a low-profile dome that is made of a flat or slightly curved glass surface. This dome is designed to protect the inner lens and submersible components of the underwater detection equipment from the harsh underwater environment.

The inner lens is a high-quality spherical lens that is located behind the outer dome. This lens is responsible for collecting, focusing, and directing light onto the submersible components of the equipment. The lens is made of high-quality optical glass, which is designed to offer maximum light transmission, reduced chromatic aberrations, and distortion-free images.

Optical glass domes are essential components of underwater detection equipment due to their ability to withstand the harsh underwater environment. The domes are constructed using materials that can withstand high pressure, corrosive saltwater, and extreme temperatures. The optical glass substrate used on the domes is chemically resistant, meaning that it can withstand exposure to harsh chemicals without being damaged.

The optical glass domes are designed to meet the stringent requirements of underwater detection equipment. They are tested against various parameters, such as optical quality, temperature resistance, pressure resistance, and corrosion resistance. The domes are also tested to ensure that they can withstand impact and shock.

The optical glass domes are also designed to offer low distortion, which is important in underwater detection equipment. The domes are designed to reduce the amount of aberration and distortion, which can affect image quality. This ensures that the images captured by the equipment are clear and detailed.

In summary, optical glass domes are essential components of underwater detection equipment. They are designed to offer maximum light transmission, reduced chromatic aberrations, and low distortion. The domes are constructed using materials that can withstand harsh underwater environments, such as high pressure, corrosive saltwater, and extreme temperatures. They are tested against various parameters, such as optical quality, temperature resistance, pressure resistance, and corrosion resistance. These domes are crucial for underwater detection equipment to function correctly and provide accurate data.



CLZ Optical Co.,Ltd. is a Well-known optical dome manufacturer and we know that large optical domes have a good market, because they can provide a large viewport-protected space.  By purchasing some new manufacturing machines and retrofitting existing machines, CLZ Optics can provide a maximum optical dome diameter increase from 124mm to 300mm.
