Changing Filter Wheels in the ConfoCor 3
By opening the lid (see Fig. 33) you have access to all the filter wheels (exempt the Blocking filter wheel)
in the ConfoCor 3.
You can remove and replace filter wheels by push and click.
Be careful not to disrupt any connectors in doing this.
Do not remove the ConfoCor 3 detection head from its attachment to the LSM 710 / LSM 780.
Laser light can escape the system through the external port used as the attachment site for the
ConfoCor 3 that can lead to bodily damage.
Please note that the data base has to be exchanged if filter wheels are replaced with another filter
set.
When opening the lid, the safety control will switch off the laser light.
The BF = block filter can only be exchanged by service.
