Tighter framing for fixed stations
Tight C-mount framing is the main characteristic of MVL-HF2528M-6MPE. The fixed 25 mm lens covers a Ø9 mm, 1/1.8-inch image and provides angular fields of 20.32° diagonal, 16.77° horizontal and 11.24° vertical. Focus and iris are manual, with aperture adjustment from F2.8 to F16. Its -0.028% distortion rating gives a defined geometric reference for inspecting localized features across the supported image area.
A 16.77° horizontal view suits code regions, small assembly details and edge locations that should occupy more of the captured image than they would behind a shorter focal length. The minimum object distance is 0.2 m, which must be allowed in the mechanical layout. Manual focus and iris make the lens appropriate to fixed working geometry where settings are established during commissioning. The Ø33 mm × 30.22 mm housing weighs 48.1 g and accepts filters through an M27 × P0.5 thread.
MVL-HF1628M-6MPE offers a wider 25.94° horizontal angle at 16 mm and focuses from 0.1 m. MVL-HF3028M-6MPE tightens the field to 14.01° horizontally at 30 mm while sharing the 0.2 m minimum distance. All three are C-mount lenses for Ø 9 mm images with manual F2.8 to F16 irises. Choose 25 mm as the middle narrow-field option; move to 16 mm for more context or 30 mm for still tighter angular coverage.

Selection and applications
Small code-region imaging. Localized assembly inspection. Fixed-distance edge measurement.
Minimum kit: A working setup requires a C-mount camera, the MVL-HF2528M-6MPE lens, the cable used by the camera's data interface, and the camera's stated power source.
Nearby in the range: MVL-HF1628M-6MPE — Prefer it for a wider 25.94° horizontal view and a 0.1 m minimum object distance.; MVL-HF3028M-6MPE — Prefer it when the 30 mm focal length and 14.01° horizontal view fit the target..

FAQ
What angular field is available from the 25 mm HF-E lens?
The specified field is 20.32° diagonally, 16.77° horizontally and 11.24° vertically. Those angles apply to its Ø9 mm image format and place the model between the 16 mm and 30 mm HF-E lenses for scene width.
How much working clearance is needed before the nearest object?
The minimum object distance is 0.2 m. The imaging head must preserve at least that focusing condition while achieving the required field. Because focus is manual, final adjustment is made at the installed object plane rather than commanded from the camera.
What mechanical interface and image circle are specified?
MVL-HF2528M-6MPE uses C-mount with a 17.526 mm flange-back length and covers a Ø9 mm image, identified as 1/1.8 inch. The body is Ø33 mm × 30.22 mm and weighs 48.1 g, defining the immediate camera-side envelope.
Which manual optical adjustments and filter thread are provided?
Focus and iris are both manual, and the aperture range is F2.8 to F16. The filter thread is M27 × P0.5. These provisions support fixed focus, selected depth behavior and a threaded filter in a commissioned inspection station.
When should 25 mm be selected instead of 16 mm or 30 mm?
Select 25 mm for a 16.77° horizontal view. The 16 mm model is wider at 25.94° and has a 0.1 m minimum object distance; the 30 mm model is narrower at 14.01° and shares this lens's 0.2 m minimum distance.
