FA Lens – CCL2316MMPC

CCL2316MMPC is CCTV/FA lens 16mm, 2/3″ C mount, low-distortion (<1%) manual iris (F1.6~16), 5-Megapixels high resolution, for machine vision & industrial automation.

2/3″ 16mm 5MP C-Mount Low Distortion Industrial FA Lens

This 2/3″ 16mm C-Mount industrial lens delivers 5MP resolution, a 38° diagonal field of view, and less than 1% distortion. With a fast F1.6–16 aperture range and a 0.1m minimum object distance, it is designed for machine vision, factory automation, and close-range industrial inspection requiring accurate and consistent imaging.

C-Mount FA Lens Core Highlights

• 5MP resolution for detailed industrial imaging and inspection
• 16mm fixed focal length provides a balanced working field of view
• <1% distortion helps preserve image geometry
• F1.6–16 aperture range supports flexible exposure control
• 0.1m M.O.D. enables close-range inspection applications

C-Mount FA Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

The 16mm focal length provides a practical balance between coverage and image detail for industrial cameras using a 2/3″ sensor. Its 31° horizontal FOV is suitable for capturing inspection areas without requiring an excessively wide-angle optical design.

With 5MP resolution and less than 1% distortion, this lens can support visual inspection tasks where dimensional relationships, edges, components, and surface features need to remain clearly represented across the image.

The 0.1m minimum object distance is especially useful for compact inspection stations where the camera must be positioned relatively close to the target. The manual iris and focus allow installers or machine vision engineers to optimize the lens according to the working distance, lighting, and inspection environment.

Designed for factory automation and close-range machine vision inspection applications where 5MP imaging, low distortion, and flexible optical adjustment are required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What sensor size is compatible with this 16mm lens?
A: The lens is specified for a 2/3″ image format and uses a C-Mount interface, making it suitable for compatible 2/3″ industrial cameras.

Q: What is the field of view of the 16mm lens?
A: The specified FOV is 38° diagonal, 31° horizontal, and 23° vertical.

Q: What resolution does this C-Mount lens support?
A: The lens is specified at 5MP resolution, making it suitable for 5MP industrial and machine vision camera systems.

Q: Is this lens suitable for close-range inspection?
A: Yes. Its specified minimum object distance is only 0.1m, allowing it to be used in relatively compact machine vision inspection setups.

Q: How does the less-than-1% distortion benefit machine vision?
A: Low distortion helps preserve the geometric relationship between objects and image coordinates, which can be useful for inspection, measurement, positioning, and recognition tasks.

Q: Can the aperture be adjusted manually?
A: Yes. The specified aperture range is F1.6–16 with a manual iris, allowing the optical system to be adjusted for different lighting conditions.

Q: Is the 16mm focal length fixed or variable?
A: The supplied specifications identify the focal length as 16mm but also list manual zoom. Since these specifications are potentially inconsistent, the final product datasheet should confirm whether this is a fixed-focal lens or a manually adjustable zoom lens.
