Penta Prisms – 90° Beam Deviation with Constant Angle

 

Detailed Description:

Penta Prisms are five-sided prisms that deviate a light beam by exactly 90°, regardless of the input angle, while maintaining image orientation (no inversion or reversion). This constant deviation property makes them essential for surveying instruments, rangefinders, and optical alignment systems.

 

Key Specifications:
  • Materials: BK7, H-K9L, Fused Silica
  • Size: 10mm – 100mm
  • Deviation Angle: 90° ±5′
  • Angle Tolerance: ±1′ ~ ±5′
  • Surface Quality: 40/20, 20/10
  • Reflectivity: >98% (protected Al/Ag coating on two reflective faces)
  • Coating: AR coating on input/output faces, reflective coating on two diagonal faces

 

Applications:

Surveying instruments, laser rangefinders, periscopes, optical alignment systems, imaging systems.
