Edmund Optics has created a family of high performance optical designs (the C Series family) and developed 6 customized optomechanical solutions targeted for specific applications. These lens sub-families utilize the same optics as the C Series lenses providing the same optical performance in a variety of optomechanical solutions to meet your application requirements:

• C Series: Features locking cam focus and iris adjustment and is the most adjustable version of these optical designs; they are the typical high quality machine vision lenses. Also available with a VIS-NIR Broadband Anti-Reflection (BBAR) Coating.
• Ci Series: Simplified mechanics featuring fixed apertures with compact housing. Industrial Ruggedization for reduced size, cost, and locked focus.
• Cr Series: All optics glued in place and a locking C-clamp focus ring. Stabilized Ruggedization for reduced pixel shift and improved focus stability.
• Cx Series: Modular, flexible mechanics allows lenses to be taken apart for easy integration of accessories such as liquid lenses, apertures, and more.
• Liquid Lens Cx Series: Designed with an integrated liquid lens for quick autofocus.
• Cw Series: Waterproof, designed to meet IEC Ingress Protection Code IPX7 and IPX9K.

Integrating Liquid Lenses into Cx Lenses

Step 1: Choose the focal length of the Cx Lens and the compatible Variable Focus Liquid Lens and Liquid Lens Holder. Or simply choose appropriate Cx Lens Kit, which includes a Cx lens and its compatible Variable Focus Liquid Lens and Liquid Lens Holder.

Step 2: Mount the Variable Focus Liquid Lens into the Liquid Lens Holder. Next, assemble both items into the middle of the Cx Lens. Complete instructions can be found in the downloadable PDF manual.
