Epi-Fluorescence Attachment
This microscope system can be used with the P-EFL Epi Fluorescence Attachment to perform epi-fluorescence microscopy
11.1
P-EFL Epi Fluorescence Attachment
This epi-fluorescence attachment is used with filter
cubes attached to the turret inside the attachment.
Bring the desired filter cube into the optical path
when performing epi-fluorescence microscopy.
Install this attachment between the zooming body
and the tube.
An HG precentered fiber illuminator is used as the
light source. The light from the light source is
introduced inside the attachment and led through
the filter cubes attached to the turret for
epi-fluorescence illumination. (For details on how to
use the light source, refer to the instruction manual
supplied with the light source.)
Up to four cubes can be attached to the turret of the
epi-fluorescence attachment. Turn the turret using
the filter cube switching knob. Align a turret address
number (1 to 4) displayed on the knob with the
indicator to bring the filter cube of the selected
address into the optical path.

CAUTION
Do not use the epi-fluorescence attachment while the filter cube replacement cover is open. Harmful light including ultraviolet
light may leak and affect fluorescence observation.
Immediately after diascopic observation using an epi-fluorescence attachment, the front face of the empty cube may become
hot, resulting in burns. Do not touch the front face of the empty cube. Replace the empty cube several minutes after finishing
the diascopic observation.
Be sure to attach four cubes to the turret.
Attach an empty cube at positions where no filter cube is required.
