The large diameter single lens is quite suitable for cullimating light at long distances up to 40 feet or more. This lens has a variety of useful and important applications. A large diameter single lens can be used in emission testing.

Single Collimating lenses are used many times for agricultural measurements as well as monitoring. In addition, lenses of this type are frequently used for water quality analysis purposes. These lenses have proven the most accurate for water quality analysis as well as plasma monitoring.
