Magnifying Lamp Selection Guide

Magnifying Lamp Selection Guide

A Closer Vue

Selecting The Right Mag Lamp

Choosing the correct magnifying lamp for your applications will depend on the following factors:

Diopter/Magnification

Diopter refers to the curvature of the magnifying lens. The larger the diopter, the thicker the lens and the higher the magnification. However, with greater magnification comes decreased working distance and a smaller field of view.
To find the magnification of a given lens, divide its diopter by 4 and add 1: for example, Aven’s Pro Vue SuperSlim Magnifying 8 Diopter lamp offers 3x magnification.

Working Distance/Focal Length

Working distance, or focal length, is the distance from the lens that’s needed to keep the object in focus. The larger the magnification power of a lens, the closer the lens must be to an object to keep it in focus. Consequently, higher magnification will result in a smaller area for operators to work with under the lens.

Field of View

This is the size of the magnified area in focus under the lens – the higher the magnification, the smaller the field of view. Field of view is like zooming in or out in an online map: you can choose to either see all of the side streets in just a few city blocks (low field of view), or lose those details to look at an entire city (higher field of view).

ESD Safe

An ESD safe tool is one that has been treated to prevent the buildup and discharge of static electricity. Mag lamps are made ESD safe in various ways, including applying special polymers to their lenses and constructing them of non-reactive materials like aluminum. ESD safety is an important consideration for users who are working with any electrical component, from circuitry to computer chips.

SMD LED Illumination

SMD stands for “Surface Mount Device” which means electronic components are mounted directly on the surface of the circuit boards, eliminating pins that go through holes in the board.

The AVEN Advantage

Superior Components for a Superior Vue

Enclosed Arms

An enclosed arm means no partially or fully exposed springs, which eliminates pinching hazards and protects the arm’s mechanisms from damage. Aven magnifying lamps are designed to allow users to lock the lamp in any position, adding flexibility to any task or work bench.

SMD LED Illumination

All Aven LED magnifying lamps come equipped with surface-mounted LED circuit boards. Ultra-bright, shadow-free illumination, rated to provide high-output performance over a minimum of 20,000+ hours of use.

Crystal-Clear Glass Lenses

While some economy model magnifying lamps feature a cost-saving plastic lens, all Aven lamps feature high-quality glass lenses for distortion-free viewing. Our product line features 8-diopter, 5-diopter and 3-diopter options to suit the needs of various magnification and working distance needs.

Beautifully Crafted Designs

In addition to high quality optics, illumination, and build quality, Aven’s magnifying lamps were also designed to look distinctive. These sleek designs are exclusive to Aven and set us apart from the competition.

3- Year Warranty

Aven’s magnifying lamps now feature a 3-year warranty. This extended warranty reaffirms Aven’s commitment to providing the industry with the highest quality magnifying lamp products at competitive prices.
