2.10 Instrumentation of nosepiece disc
The nosepiece disc can be fitted with a total of
4 filter blocks (filter system). At present, 19 fluo-
rescence blocks (p. 25) are available for various
macro and multicolor applications (additional filter
blocks upon request). The filter block offer from
Leica Microsystems is continuously expanded
with respect to the latest application require-
ments. The filter blocks (filter systems) consist of
a combination of excitation filter, beam-splitting
mirror and suppression filter.
The design prevents eyes from being blinded.
Remove the cover (6.1) on the right side of the
illuminator by pulling it up (recess [6.2] for plac-
ing a finger on the bottom of the cover).
Push the filter block with the tapered end of the
dovetail guide (7.1) first into the guide until it
stops.
Turn the nosepiece disc (6.3) and populate the
4 positions.
