7.11.5 Attaching a High NA Condenser
Attach a T-CHNA High N.A. common condenser lens unit and a manual condenser (TC-C-TC condenser
turret or TI2-C-SCH HNA condenser slider), and a high NA condenser lens to the illumination pillar and the
condenser mount. (Tool: 2 mm hexagonal screwdriver, supplied with the microscope main body)
The TI2-C-SCH HNA condenser slider is used as an example here.
1. Attach the condenser module to the manual
condenser.
2. When the HNA condenser slider is in use,
insert the module into the module slot of the
slider, and tighten the two hex socket head cap
screws using a hexagonal screwdriver.
When the condenser turret is in use, see
“7.11.2 Attaching a Condenser Turret (System
Condenser).”
Combination of condenser modules
Attach a condenser module suited to the
purpose.
For details on combinations of condenser
lenses and condenser modules that can be
attached to condensers, see “3.4 Using the
Condenser Section.”
HNA condenser slider
Mounting the Ph condenser module
Push in the slider in/out lever to set the Ph
condenser module (37 mm diameter) in the 37
mm diameter-module insertion slot.
Then, insert a hexagonal screwdriver into a hole
on the side of the slider, and tighten the clamp
screw.
Mounting the DIC condenser module
Pull out the slider in/out lever to set the DIC
condenser module (39 mm diameter) in the 39
mm diameter-module insertion slot.
The DIC condenser module has a positioning pin.
Align the pin on the reverse side of the module
with the notch of the slider, and insert the module
into the slider.
Then, insert a hexagonal screwdriver into a hole
on the front right of the slider, and tighten the
clamp screw.
Mounting the ND filter for BF microscopy (module)
When performing BF microscopy, mount the ND filter for BF microscopy. ND filter for BF microscopy can
be mounted on both 37 mm-dia. and 39 mm-dia. slots by reversing the ND filter.
To mount the ND filter on the 37 mm-dia. position, push away the protrusion at the mount position and
insert the ND filter. The tilted filter is not easily inserted. Be sure not tilt the filter and push it all the way into
the turret.
Then, insert a hexagonal screwdriver into a hole on the side of the slider, and tighten the clamp screw.
After inserting the ND filter on the 39 mm-dia. position, insert a hexagonal screwdriver into a hole on the
front right of the slider and tighten the clamp screw.
