Removing a module:
•
Tip the module slightly. Pull it firstly out of the top springs and then out of the bottom springs.
Remove it completely.
•
After removing or installing the reflector modules, insert the cover cap with the two top pins into the
stand housing and press until the bottom retaining pins snap in.
•
Switch the reflector turret three positions clockwise to swivel the mounted module into the beam
path.
2.2.13
Changing the filter set in the
FL P&C reflector module
The filter sets for the FL P&C reflector module can
be combined and assembled individually by the
customer. Filter sets or fully assembled FL P&C
reflector modules can be ordered from Carl Zeiss.
•
Remove FL P&C reflector module (2-42/
3
) from
the reflector turret and set it down (also refer
to Section 2.2.12).
•
Use mounting device (2-43/6) from the tool set
to unscrew retainer ring (2-42/
1
).
•
Turn the reflector module around and allow the
filter (2-42/
2
or
5
) to drop out on a soft surface.
•
The emission filter is inserted at (2-42/
2
), the
excitation filter at (2-42/
5
), and both are
secured using the retainer ring (2-42/
1
).
An arrow and designation can be provided on the circumference of the emission filter and excitation
filter. The arrow indicates the direction the particular filter is installed in the reflector module and must
always point inwards (refer to arrows in Fig. 2-42).
An additional label can be provided on the emission filter to show the position of the wedge angle in
order to minimize image movement during multiple fluorescence procedures.
The label should be aligned on the orientation groove (2-42/
4
) when the particular emission filter
concerned is installed in the reflector modules used. This ensures that the wedge angle of the emission
filter is in the same, defined position of the reflector modules, which minimizes the already minimal
image shift when Zeiss filter sets are used.
