Filter change in the detection beam path of channels 1 and 2
For optimum investigation of specimens it is useful to employ filter wheels permitting motor-controlled
change between different filters for narrow-band or broad-band detection depending on the wave-
length. The number of filters is limited by the capacity of the filter wheel. The change of the filter wheel
as a whole involves complete readjustment.
The filter wheels of channels 1 and 2 of the Scanning Module have a change position in which a filter,
including its mount, can be changed in a reproducible position without requiring readjustment. The
filters can be rotated in their cells, and with the light path being eccentric relative to the filter center, the
best transmission area of the filter for the respective wavelength or pass range can be found by rotating
the filter. This is very important for the investigation of specimens of low emission.
Filter change
By software control, move filter wheel (4-1/5)
to the change position.
Pull cover cap (4-1/1) off the Scanning Module.
Use the wire stirrup (4-1/2) to pull the filter
mount (4-1/4) with the filter (4-1/3) out of the
guide well.
Change filter to suit the application.
☞
The filter is rotatable in its mount,
allowing adjustment for finding the
best transmission area of the filter for
the wavelength used.
Enter the designation of this particular filter into
the System Software database.
