LS183 Optical Transmittance Meter | Thick Transparent Materials
The LS183 optical transmittance meter tests materials such as heat-insulating coatings, single glass, laminated or insulated glass, filmed glass, PMMA and PC. It measures ultraviolet, infrared and visible-light transmittance. Its parallel optical path and 47 mm-wide test slot support thicker materials, with quick placement and measurement.

The LS108A Lens Transmittance Meter is designed to test transmittance in mobile phone cover-glass IR ink openings, remote-control windows, IR-cut filters, infrared-technology products, screen protectors and lens materials. Its three-in-one optical path measures transmittance at 550 nm visible light, 850 nm infrared and 940 nm infrared with one alignment. The 1 mm measuring aperture is suitable for samples larger than 1 mm. The meter supports incoming inspection of optical components, process quality control, batch comparison and pre-shipment checks.
Contact our team to confirm the configuration and measurement conditions for your sample.
The LS108D lens transmittance meter is designed to test infrared transmittance through IR-ink openings in phone cover glass, very small light-transmitting apertures, remote-control windows, IR-cut filters, screen protectors, and lens materials. Compared with the LS108A 1 mm measuring aperture, the LS108D features a 0.5 mm micro-aperture for testing smaller openings or areas with limited measurement space. Confirm the model according to sample aperture, positioning method, test wavelengths, and quality-control workflow.
