    Hi Kaushalkumar Patel  There is not a separately purchasable official replacement for the front glass, but you can create your own front covering.  Pages 116-117 of the data sheet document for the 400 Series cameras provide guidance about selecting a cover material.

    You should be able to use the camera without the front glass though if you remove it.  The image below shows the D430 depth camera module inside the casing, which has its own protective enclosure.  The depth module can be used without an outer casing and front glass.  Having front glass though protects the sensors against dust and humidity.  And if the end-effector hit the front glass before, there is a chance that it could happen again and damage the exposed sensor lenses.

     

     

    Another consequence of not having a front glass would be that a value of -4.2 mm should be added to depth measurements to take account of depth having to be measured from the sensor lenses instead of the front glass.
