Olympus GX53 - Transmitted Light Brightfield

GX53
4-4 Transmitted light brightfield observation
For the transmitted light brightfield observation, following units are required.
· Transmitted illuminator column: IX2-ILL100
[LED] [Halogen bulb]
· LED light source: BX3M-LEDT
· Power supply: BX3M-PSLED
· Halogen lamp housing: U-LH100L-3 (Extension cord U-RMT is required.)
· Power supply: TH4-100/TH4-200
When using the stage GX-SVR, the transmitted illuminator column interferes with the stage and the
stage movable range in Y direction decreases by approx. 4 mm in the rear side.
If you remove the stage stopper rubber (rear side of stage), you can recover the movement distance
by 3 mm. However, as the impact to the stage increases due to no stopper rubber, move the stage in
Y-axis direction carefully.
