The main features and application:
- High transmittance (Ha/SII≥95%,OIII≥92%)and the narrow FWHM 2.5nm +0.3/-0.1nm to maximize contrast;
- Flat-top spectrum minimizes the loss in transmission due to the Center Wavelength (CWL)-shift;
- Out of band blocking specification is designed to OD5 (0.001%) to block interference from other wavelengths and minimize halos around bright stars;
- Made of quartz glass, excellent durability and thermal stability, better fracture resistance and scratch resistance, improved coating resilience to cleaning;
- Filters are resistant to scratches;
- Identical filter thickness to existing standards and double-sided fine polishing , with utmost care for parfocality;
- The SHO 2.5nm Ultra filters are recommended for use in optics with a Focus Ratio of ≥ f/3.5 for best optical performance;
- 100% of production are scanned individually, all transmission and blocking (OD) data in the box are actual, measured spectra and transmission;
- All Antlia filters are coated to the edge of the substrate and unmounted narrowband filters are edge blackened to eliminate internal reflections from stray light;
- Warranty: 3-years against delamination.
