C-FDF Flexible Double Arm Fiber Illumination Unit
The C-FDF is a fiber connected to the C-FLED2 LED Light
Source for Fiber Illuminator for illuminating samples.
Two fibers are held by the C-FIDH Fiber Holder. The orientation o
the holder’s arm can be adjusted so that the tips of the fibers face
the samples for illumination. For details about using the fiber
holder, see the “ C-FIDH Fiber Holder”.
Important notes on handling the fibers
Do not excessively bend the fibers or apply excess force to the
fibers. Doing so may damage the fibers.
For details about using the light source, refer to the instruction
manual for the light source.

C-FDF Flexible Double Arm Fiber illumination Unit
C-FIDH Fiber Holder
It holds the tip of the flexible double-arm fiber. Mount the base of
the holder to the base (stand) of the microscope system. It holds
the tips of the fibers with the two arms coming from the holder’s
base. The arms can be freely positioned in any direction. The
positions of the arms can be firmly locked by tightening the knobs
at the joints of the arms. The arms are connected with a
mechanism that enables the arms to be freely swung centered
around a single axis (Z axis). This allows the arms to be pushed
aside without having to unlock the arm joints. After that, if the arm
position is returned by the rotation of the single axis, the arm will
stop at the position that was locked first.

P2-FIR Ring Fiber Illumination Unit
The P2-FIR is illuminator is connected to the C-FLED2 LED Light
Source for Fiber Illuminator. Attach the ring-shaped fiber
illumination to the outer periphery of the objective in order to
illuminate samples.
The edge face of the sample can be illuminated evenly using this
ring-shaped fiber.
Restriction
The following two objectives can be used with the P2-FIR Ring
Fiber Illumination Unit:
• P2-SHR Plan Apo 0.5X
• P2-SHR Plan Apo 1X
Important notes on handling the fibers
Do not excessively bend the fibers or apply excess force to the
fibers. Doing so may damage the fibers.
For details about using of the light source, refer to the instruction
manual for the light source.
