Maximum Immersion Depth for Lenses
Some C-mount lenses reach deep into the camera flange. This may cause the lens to push against
the back of the filter glass inside the camera or even make it impossible to screw in the lens.
The table below indicates the maximum possible immersion depth for each uEye model. The actual
immersion depth of a lens is given in the relevant data sheet. As lens parts with a small diameter are
allowed to reach deeper into the camera flange, the immersion depths are specified based on the
diameter.
