Mounting the filter

uEye Camera Manual Version 4.00

Mounting the filter

Achtung

It is recommended to have the filter changed under clean room conditions at IDS. If you change the filter yourself, dust might enter the sensor area and become visible in images.

When completely removing the adjustment ring and the filter glass the rubber gasket should also be removed. Because the rubber gasket is expanded during installation, it is difficult to put inside again the filter glass.

The threaded ring presses the filter glass on a rubber gasket. A properly mounted threaded ring will seal off the sensor. The threaded ring is screwed into the adjusting ring from the front with a torque of 0.2 Nm.

Hinweis

A special IDS tool is required for adjusting the threaded ring (see GigE uEye HE accessories).

Hinweis

Some uEye models have a different design with a separate filter glass that is secured by two screws.
