◆ Recommended Products — Optical Shutter Solenoids

BOS5‑8 BOS7/10 BOS10/15 RSR28/17 MLS‑0808

◆ Selection Points

  • Optimal actuator for switching optical filters that absorb, transmit or reflect specific wavelengths.
  • Ideal for optical devices used day and night that toggle between visible‑light and IR night‑vision modes, as well as for switching IR‑cut, visible‑cut, band‑pass and ND filters.

◆ Typical Applications

  • Lasers — drilling, cutting, welding, surface treatment, cleaning, medical treatment
  • Laser markers
  • 3D printers — stereolithography, powder‑bed fusion
  • Laser measuring instruments — laser microscopes, optical coherence tomography (OCT)
  • Visible‑light sources
  • Optical microscopes
  • Colorimeters
  • Surveying instruments
  • Spectroradiometers
  • Spectrophotometers
  • UV curing equipment
  • UV sterilization systems
  • UV fluorescence microscopes
  • UV scanners
