Product Description
Achieve crisp, high-contrast phase images by aligning your phase annuli correctly. Proper centering is what makes phase contrast work, and this telescope makes the job quick and precise so unstained live cells and thin specimens show the contrast they should. It is a must-have tool for any lab running phase contrast.
This listing is for catalog number 1400-PCTII: Phase Contrast Centering Telescope, for 1493INi. The centering telescope replaces an eyepiece so you can view the back focal plane of the objective, where the condenser annulus and objective phase ring appear. Adjust the condenser until the rings overlap, then reinsert the eyepiece. Versions are listed for 1200CM, 1286ECM, 1293CMI, 1400 phase, 1486FL and 1493INi microscopes, so match the part to your model. Add it to your LIGHT LABS order and keep your lab stocked.
Key Features
- Precise alignment – Lets you center phase annuli accurately.
- Simple use – Inserts in place of an eyepiece.
- Better phase images – Proper centering maximizes contrast.
- Model-matched – Versions for several phase-capable microscope series.
