PZO Biolar - metal sheet cover for the microscope base - photo gallery

This is description of this part:

Service element - this is a metal cover of the microscope base.

In the base of the PZO Biolar microscope, there is the optical light beam, and sometimes maintenance (especially cleaning) of this element is required. Since PZO Biolar microscopes are 40-50 years old, it is now possible to find units without this cover, as it was lost over the years.

This metal cover also acts as a heat sink and dissipates heat from the bulb - this can sometimes be seen as discoloration on the inner surface of the metal. For this reason, replacing it with an element made of cardboard or plastic is a very bad practice.

Without this cover, contaminants can enter the optical light beam, the angled mirror, or the field diaphragm, which may, for example, cause diaphragm failure or deterioration of image quality.

This element fits the following versions of the PZO Biolar microscope:
- B
- B2
- Pol
- DIC
- EPI
- Fluoreszenz

Note - most likely it does not fit the GF version.

This is an original element, taken from the disassembly of a PZO Biolar microscope.
