Broncolor 5500 K Protecting Glass

The Broncolor 5500 K Protecting Glass is a replacement dome built for Broncolor Minipuls C200 and Minicom 40/80 monolights. It shields the flash tube from knocks, dust and debris while preserving the unit's 5500 K colour output. Studio photographers and filmmakers who rely on consistent daylight-balanced light will find it a direct fit for these heads. It is not for owners of other Broncolor series or third‑party monolights that use a different mount.

Heat resistance and colour stability

The glass is made from high‑temperature material that withstands repeated flash cycles without warping or yellowing. By preventing thermal stress on the tube it keeps the 5500 K output steady over long sessions, so skin tones and product colours stay accurate from the first pop to the last. It does not alter the spectral quality of the flash or add diffusion beyond the original dome design.

Quick mount and common pitfalls

The dome snaps onto the Minipuls C200 or Minicom 40/80 reflector housing in seconds, requiring no tools or disassembly of the head. Problems usually arise when the glass is forced onto an incompatible reflector or when residue on the mating surface prevents a clean seat, leading to light leaks or a loose fit. Always verify the head model before ordering and wipe the flange before fitting.
