Inserting the beam combiner into the mounting frame or changing it
Different beam combiners are available to be inserted into the mounting frames marked with the
corresponding wavelength designations.
The beam combiners are designed as high passes, which means that shorter wavelengths than that
indicated for the beam combiner are reflected, while longer wavelengths can pass. For configuration
proposals of LED modules and beam combiners see also chapter 7.
If both are ordered, the mounting frame will be delivered with the beam combiner already inserted.
If another beam combiner is required, an additional, empty mounting frame (423052-9110-000,
mounting frame for beam combiner) must be ordered or an already mounted beam combiner must be
dismounted.
To insert or change the beam combiner proceeds as follows:
Please handle the beam combiner and the mounting frame, respectively, with reasonable care,
as these components can easily be damaged.
•
Remove the mounting frame for the beam
combiner (Fig. 5-5/
1
) carefully from the lamp
module (see also Section 5.3).
•
Loosen the screw (Fig. 5-5/
3
) and remove the
beam combiner (Fig. 5-5/
2
).
•
Carefully slide the new beam combiner
underneath the spring-loaded frames
(Fig. 5-5/
4
).
•
Carefully re-tighten the screw (Fig. 5-5/
3
).
When mounted, the coated side of the beam
combiner should point to the LED module with the
shorter wavelength.
•
Insert the mounting frame with the beam
combiner again into the lamp module.
After completing the modification, assemble the lamp module again and mount it to the
microscope.
Then, the lamp module can be used again (see Section 3).
