Graticules
•
The
graticules for length measurements
and
numbering are
fitted in mounts
and
can
be
inserted into the eyepieces.
• A special measuri
ng
graticule
is
available for the Leica MZ16
A (see the user
manual M2-116).
• A high-precision object micrometer with
50-mm
scale,
0.1
mm
and
0.01
mm
graduation, allows for calibration
corresponding to the selected magnification.
• Preferably measure with t
he
microscope carrier
AX
in
vertical position.
The
measurements are more accurate
with-
out the convergence angle in the stereoscopic image.
• Graticules show boundary lines f

Unscrew the insert at the knurled ring.
.-
Clamp the graticule onto the insert with
a
little bit of pressure. Check for co rrect
seating!

Look into the eyepiece: Align the gratic-
ule
by turning the eyepiece in the tube
and
tighten the clamping screw.

Thermo
stages
The
Le

ca
MATS thermocontrol system is a heating system for
microscopes and stereomicroscopes. Leica
MATS
allows the
observation of temperature-sensitive specimens
and
living cells
in biology,
med
icine
and
pharmaceutics under exact tempera-
ture conditions.

Polarization,
transmiUed
light
The
analyzer, in combinati
on
with either the
ro
tatable polariza-
tion stage or the polarizer
on
glass stage plate, enables double-
refracting materials to
be
studied. These
ca
n include organic
crystals, mineral grains, thin secti
ons
of rock or bone, polymers,
stressed gl
ass,
and
liquid crystals .
