LPF550 550nm Longpass Optical Filter for IPL Hair Removal Machines - High Transmittance

In IPL hair removal systems where patient safety and treatment efficacy are paramount, uncontrolled short-wavelength energy poses serious risks. Manufactures delivers clinical-grade spectral control with the LPF550 550nm Longpass Optical Filter – engineered to block harmful UV/visible light while maximizing therapeutic infrared delivery in IPL hair removal machines.

Critical Optical Performance

• Sharp 550nm Cutoff: Aggressively blocks mutagenic wavelengths <550nm (UV to green)

• High IR Transmittance (>95%): Maximizes energy delivery to hair follicles (560–1200nm)

• OD4+ Safety Blocking: Eliminates >99.99% of erythema-causing radiation

• Sunlight Spectrum Rejection: Neutralizes ambient light interference during treatments

Why 550nm Wins in Hair Removal

Clinically proven to optimize chromophore targeting:
✅ Melanin-Specific Energy: Focuses energy on hair follicles while sparing epidermis
✅ Reduced Side Effects: Prevents burns/pigmentation by blocking photo-sensitive bands
✅ Faster Treatment Cycles: High transmittance enables shorter pulse durations

Engineered for Clinical Extremes

• Flashlamp-Tough: Withstands 100+ J/cm² (tested to 500,000 flashes)

• Thermal Stability: <0.1% shift at 100°C – critical for high-power systems

• Medical-Grade Substrates: Schott B270i glass with biocompatible hard coatings

• Autoclavable Surfaces: Withstands ethanol/UV sterilization protocols

Applications:

• Professional Hair Removal: Safe for Fitzpatrick skin types I-V
