4mm RGBIR Low Distortion Lens for up to 1/1.7" such as IMX334 and AR0820

The CIL046 is a 4.4mm IR-corrected M12 lens for 1/1.7" sensors up to 8MP at 1.85μm pixel pitch. At F/2.0 it gives you useful low-light performance, and the RGBIR correction keeps the image in focus across visible and near-infrared light instead of shifting between day and night modes.

The lens covers 100° across an 8.9mm image circle. Distortion is -14% rectilinear and -8% TV, which is higher than a low-distortion design but is the normal tradeoff when you want wide angle, fast aperture, and IR correction in one package. On sensors like the IMX334 and AR0820, that tradeoff usually makes sense for cameras that need both coverage and spectral stability. Check angular coverage at field of view calculator

The optical stack uses twelve all-glass elements in an aluminum barrel. At 14g, this lens is heavier than most M12 models because a 12-element IR-corrected design needs real glass to control aberrations. The all-glass, all-metal construction also stays stable in outdoor and industrial environments.

The single M12A mechanical variant ships with BBAR coating on the first surface and no IP rating. You should use it in an enclosed housing or pair it with a sealed camera module if the environment is dirty or wet. The lens is mechanically compatible with Commonlands CLA019 lens holders, FLIR Blackfly S, Allied Vision Alvium, iDS uEye LE, The Imaging Source, and Basler Dart cameras. A 10–15mm tall holder fits e-con Systems boards.

Commonlands ships this lens same day from San Diego before 12 PM PST. It is also available as CIL046-F2.0-M12ADB851 with a 650nm IRC plus CDB851 bandpass filter for specialized multispectral applications. Contact our engineers for volume pricing.
