Filter list
Filter
Description
ND2
(Neutral Density
filter)
Adjusts the brightness for general microscopy or photomicroscopy. Reduces the light
intensity to 1/2. Dims the quantity of light to 1/2 (Transmittance: approx. 50%).
ND16
(Neutral Density
filter)
Adjusts the brightness for general microscopy or photomicroscopy. Dims the quantity
of light to 1/16 (Transmittance: approx. 6.3%).
GIF
(Green Interference
filter)
Improves the contrast for microscopy under a monochrome light or when performing
monochrome imaging.
NCB11
(Neutral Color
Balancing filter)
Corrects the color temperature for general microscopy or filming by daylight color TV
camera photography. Color reproduction is best when this filter is inserted into the
optical path, and the lamp voltage is set to the same display as the lamp rating.
Remove from optical path when performing monochrome imaging.

Condenser refocusing clamp
Figure 3.23-7 Condenser refocusing clamp
Form the field diaphragm image on the sample
surface by turning the condenser focus knob. Turn
the condenser refocusing clamp clockwise to the limit
to mark this position.
When the condenser is elevated to change the
sample, it can easily be brought back down to the
initial position (at which the field diaphragm image is
formed) by turning the condenser focus knob to the
limit. The condenser refocusing clamp has a range of
motion of 13 mm.

The condenser mount can be turned by loosening the
condenser mount rotation clamp screw.
