9-5 BX Stage Adapter Type 1 SZX-STAD1
1 Introduction
This adapter is for installation of a U-SRG or U-SRP rotary stage on the SZX standard base or a SZX series illumination
base. When the U-SRP rotary stage is used together with the U-FMP mechanical stage, X-Y directional movement be-
comes possible, which is convenient for framing during photomicrography.
To cover the height of the stage adapter, we recommend combination with the SZH-P400 auxiliary pillar (together with the
SZX-R drop prevention collar).
