Author Topic: Heat reflecting glass for Eprad? Matt Close Expert Film Handler Posts: 226 From: Hervey Bay, QLD, Australia Registered: Sep 2001 posted 06-03-2002 08:28 PM                        I have an Eprad 47000 series lamphouse with no heat reflecting glass .... Are there special requirements for this glass? What do I need to get?  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

Is yours equipped with a cold mirror or a hot mirror? If it is a cold mirror, you probably don't need one, unless it is a distance corrector. If it is a hot mirror, it'll probably have to be a dichloric filter. Those get mighty expensive.....if they are available for that lamp.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 06-04-2002 09:09 PM                     That serries of lamphouse is only a hot mirror You can get heat filter glass in larger squares and cut them down Edmund Scientific used to sell it  |  IP: Logged
