Linos Tandem Optical Lens 1:1 4401-438-820-00
Two lenses facing each other, which is how you get a clean 1:1 relay
A tandem pair is the standard way to build a unity-magnification relay: two identical lenses mounted front to front so that each one's aberrations cancel the other's. The result is a flat, low-distortion image transfer that a single lens at 1:1 cannot match, and it is why this configuration turns up in fluorescence imagers and plate readers where the whole field has to be quantitatively comparable.
This unit came out of a functioning PCR system, which tells you the optical surfaces were kept in a controlled environment.
Where it earns its place
- Unity-magnification relays in fluorescence imagers and plate readers
- Coupling a sensor to an intermediate image plane with low distortion
- Repairing or rebuilding an instrument that uses this Linos assembly
- Custom optical benches needing a known-good 1:1 transfer
