Engineering reference
OMHS20-CS is a configurable optical mounting component in the Mirror Mount & Cage System family. The final part number should be released only after the optical, mechanical, electrical and environmental fields below are matched to the intended instrument.
An optical mount locates an optic relative to mechanical datums while controlling stress and angular drift. Optic size, clear aperture, axis height, adjustment sensitivity, locking behavior and base pattern must be matched as one geometry.
The local price-list record does not provide a complete model specification or datasheet. These fields identify what must be confirmed on the model drawing and quotation without inventing an option-dependent value.
Application context
Application guidance is derived from the product family and tied to the model-specific selection fields above.
Adjustment sensitivity and locking behavior determine whether the beam can be centered and remain aligned after handling.
Axis height and hole pattern allow the component to exchange with neighboring optics without rebuilding the reference geometry.
Technical FAQ
Confirm optic or payload, optical geometry, adjustment, stability, base interface, and environment. These fields are coupled, so the final part number should be checked against the complete instrument rather than selected from the model name alone.
An optical mount locates an optic relative to mechanical datums while controlling stress and angular drift. Optic size, clear aperture, axis height, adjustment sensitivity, locking behavior and base pattern must be matched as one geometry. Freeze the optical, mechanical and electrical interfaces before releasing the surrounding assembly.
Approve the configuration-specific specification, mechanical drawing, connector or pinout definition, environmental suffix and acceptance-test limits supplied with the quotation. Any field absent from the local record remains a confirmation item, not an assumed capability.

Before you specify
Engineering context for choosing this class of component, with the tradeoffs worked through on real specifications.
Opto-mechanicsVibration, thermal drift and mechanical integration are one problem. Budget the motion at the sample, then specify the table, the isolation, the mounts and the beam height that budget asks for.
