Changing the color splitter in the reflector module FL P&C
ATTENTION
Be extremely careful when installing the filters and the color splitter to avoid damaging and
soiling the optical components.
We recommend ordering completely equipped
reflector modules FL P&C, as changing the color
splitter is very challenging.
When changing the color filter, please proceed as
follows:
•
Remove the reflector module FL P&C from the
reflector turret (see also section
•
Loosen both slit screws (
1
) with a
screwdriver.
•
Hold both parts of the reflector module (the
emission
part (
2
)
and the
excitation
part (
3
) together, turn them against
the mounting position and put them down.
•
Now tilt the
excitation
part lying on top
1
) upward and lift the
emission
part
4
) from the holding fixtures
5b
).
•
Remove color splitter (
2
) and spring
box (
3
) from the bottom part of the
module.
•
Remove the old color splitter and carefully put
the new splitter with the reflective coating
facing upwards onto the spring box
(
3
). Put both pieces together into the
bottom part of the module. Make sure that the
side latch of the spring box is in the appropriate
recess of the bottom part of the module.
