Installing the LED illuminator for
transmitted light
The LED illuminator for transmitted light can be
installed optionally on the transmitted light port on
the rear of the instrument or on the bottom of the
condenser carrier.
The LED illuminator delivers light of constant color
temperature, independent of the set light intensity.
Do not look directly into the LED light.
Always make sure that the instrument
is switched off when mounting or
dismounting the LED illuminator
onto/from the transmitted-light port.
Installing the LED illuminator on the transmitted light port
•
Loosen clamping screw (Fig. 48/
1
) on transmitted-light port (Fig. 48/

). Remove the halogen lamp.
•
Disconnect the illuminator plug from the 12 V / 100 W connector (transmitted light) on the back of
the instrument.
•
Insert adapter optics for LED illuminator (Fig. 48/
3
) in the transmitted-light port with the slant pointing
down, then tighten the clamping screw.
•
Screw LED illuminator (Fig. 48/
4
) onto the adapter optics using the Allen screws (Fig. 48/
5
) provided.
•
Push slider with diffusion disk 10° (Fig. 48/
6
) into the LED illuminator.
•
Insert the plug of the LED illuminator into the 12 V / 100 W connector (transmitted light) on the back
of the instrument.
The color temperature for specimen observation can be changed by inserting color
temperature filters in the slider with diffusion disk (held by retaining ring).
