Condenser carrier (Fig. 76/23)
− The condenser carrier (Fig. 77/6) is part of the
stage carrier (Fig. 77/5).
− Insert the condenser in the mount of the
condenser carrier and fasten it by means of
clamping screw (Fig. 77/2).
− To center the condenser, turn the two centering
screws (Fig. 77/1).
− Turn the height adjustment control (Fig. 77/4)
to adjust the condenser (condenser carrier) in
the Z-axis.
− The clamping screw (Fig. 77/3) limits the top
adjustment range of the condenser. The limit
facilitates finding the KÖHLER illumination
position again.
Polarizer for transmitted light (Fig. 76/24)
Various types of transmitted-light polarizers are
available: with fixed or rotatable polarizer or with
additional lambda or lambda/4 plate or with
additional neutral filter position (cf. system
overview of Axio Imager 2, Section 2.4).
• Using handle (Fig. 78/3) swing the polarizer
(Fig. 78/1) (or the neutral filter position, if
necessary) into the light path until it is securely
fixed by the detent bolt (Fig. 78/4).
• If available, rotate the lambda plate or the
lambda/4 plate by a maximum of 45 degrees to
the right or left by moving lever (Fig. 78/2).
The color filter carrier is operated the
same way as the polarizer.
