FAQ
What size monitor is this privacy screen filter designed for?
This privacy screen filter is specifically designed for 31.5-inch widescreen monitors with a 16:9 aspect ratio. It fits LCD displays of this size, with dimensions of 27.4 inches wide by 15.47 inches long, ensuring compatibility with standard 31.5-inch monitor screens.
How does the Microlouver technology protect my privacy?
Microlouver technology uses micro-louvers within the filter to limit the viewing angle to +/- 30 degrees from the center. This means the screen content is only visible to someone directly in front of the monitor, obscuring it from side views to prevent visual eavesdropping and keep sensitive data private.
Can I use this privacy screen filter on monitors with different bezel types?
Yes, the filter includes both adhesive strips for bezel-less or slim bezel displays and mounting tabs for monitors with raised bezels. This dual attachment system ensures a secure fit on various monitor designs, and extra adhesive strips and mounting tabs are available separately if needed.
Does this filter reduce blue light, and how does it help?
Yes, this privacy screen filter reduces blue light exposure, which is known to cause eye strain and fatigue during prolonged computer use. By filtering out a portion of blue light, it improves visual comfort and can help reduce headaches and eye discomfort in office or high-usage environments.
What are the benefits of the reversible design?
The reversible design offers two sides: an anti-glare matte side for environments with glare or reflections, and a high-gloss side that retains color vibrancy and brightness. This allows users to switch based on lighting conditions or preference, with the matte side also providing additional scratch and fingerprint protection.
What is included in the package, and is installation difficult?
The package includes a privacy screen filter, an adhesive strip kit, a mounting tabs kit, a wiping cloth, and a quick-start guide. Installation is hassle-free with the provided components; the adhesive strips are for bezel-less displays, and the mounting tabs are for raised bezels, making it easy to apply and remove without residue.
