With the surface marked “TOP” facing up, the PH slider is pushed upwards into 

the insertion point on the PH condenser until it clicks into the first position. At this 
first  position,  the phase ring of the PH slider is in  the beam path. If the aperture 

setting  on  the  PH  condenser  is  set  to  “PH”,  then  the  phase

-contrast  application 

can begin. In order to return to the bright field application, you must push the PH 
slider  further  to  the  second  click  position.  At  this  point  there  is  no  PH  ring  as  in 
position 1; the beam can pass without being affected by the PH slider. 

 

The PH objective has a PH ring in its lens system, just like the PH slider. Due to 
their size on one hand and their positioning on the other, these two rings must be 
aligned to one another in the beam path. The position of the ring in the  objective 
cannot  be  altered,  that  of  the  ring  in  the  slider  however  can  be.  Although  it  has 
been pre-centred, it may still be necessary that after a certain period of use it will 
need to be re-centred using the three Allen bolts on the side of the slider and the 
centring telescope. 

For further information on adjusting the PH rings, please see 

section 4.9, Point 2 - End. 

 

Depending  on  the  preferences  of  the  user,  using  a  green  filter  can  produce  a 
more  effective  and  pleasant  image.  To  achieve  this,  the  green  filter  must  be 
screwed onto the underside of the PH condenser. 
 
 

2.  Comprehensive phase-contrast unit 

 

This  consists  of  a  PH  universal  rotary  condenser,  four  PH  objectives  (10x,  20x, 
40x and 100x), a centring telescope, two centring turnscrews and a green filter. 
To use this, you need to replace the standard condenser of the microscope with 
the PH universal rotary condenser. The required objectives are also screwed into 
the nosepiece and one of these is positioned in the beam path. The two  centring 
turnscrews can be fitted to the relevant points on the sides of the condenser using 
the screw connection on their spring retainer.  
The condenser has a hub with six positioning options. Four of these are fitted with 
a  phase  ring,  which  matches  only  one  specific  objective  magnification.  When 
doing this you must note the marking on the rotary knob at the relevant position. 
The other two positions are intended for bright field applications. 

 

A PH objective has a PH ring in its lens system, just like the individual positions of 
the  PH  universal  rotary  condenser.  Due  to  their  size  on  one  hand  and  their 
positioning on the other, the two related rings must be aligned to one another in 
the beam path. The position of the ring in the objectives cannot be altered, that of 
the rings in the condenser disc however can be.
