FAQs

What screen size and aspect ratio is the 3M PF290W2B Privacy Filter designed for?
The 3M PF290W2B Privacy Filter is specifically designed for 29-inch LCD monitors with a 21:9 widescreen aspect ratio. The filter's dimensions are 26.50 inches in width and 11.25 inches in height to provide precise coverage for these ultrawide displays.
How does the privacy protection feature work on this screen filter?
This privacy filter provides "black out" privacy protection by limiting the viewing angle to 60 degrees. This means content is only visible to someone viewing the screen straight on, while anyone viewing from side angles will see a darkened screen. This feature is particularly useful in public spaces or open office environments to protect sensitive information.
What are the dual-sided features of the 3M PF290W2B?
The 3M PF290W2B is reversible with two distinct sides: a glossy side for crystal clear viewing, and a matte anti-glare side that reduces reflections and hides fingerprints. Users can choose which side faces them based on their lighting conditions and personal preferences, making it versatile for different environments.
Does this privacy filter reduce blue light exposure?
Yes, the 3M PF290W2B includes blue light reduction technology. This feature helps reduce exposure to harmful blue light emissions from the screen, potentially decreasing eye strain and fatigue during extended viewing sessions while maintaining image clarity.
What durability features does the 3M PF290W2B offer?
The 3M PF290W2B is built with multiple durability features including scratch resistance, dust resistance, and fingerprint resistance. These protective qualities help maintain the filter's appearance and functionality over time, ensuring long-lasting performance and clarity.
