    SZ2 series IMPORTANT The SZ2 series of stereo microscopes are provided with ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) protection specifications. They are provided with electroconductive coating in their external finish to reduce the surface resistance and grounding lead wires in their standard base or frame to eliminate static electricity from them. To maintain the ESD protection performance, always use the microscope in combination with the NOTE modules described in this manual or options having the ESD protection specifications.
