PZO Biolar FL - microscope monocular head with OG1 / GG9 fluorescence filter - photo gallery

This is description of this part:

This is an original monocular microscope head (so-called monocular) with a mounted fluorescence barrier filter.

Basic parameters.
Manufacturer: PZO
Item: Monocular microscope head for a fluorescence microscope
Model: PZO MNJ-4
Mounting method: dovetail, diameter 43 mm
Supported eyepieces: 23.2 mm
Mounted filter: OG1 / GG9
For microscopes: PZO Biolar FL and PZO MB-30 FL

Why are monocular microscope heads often used in fluorescence microscopy? Fluorescence microscopy (especially older designs) produces a relatively dark image, so it is beneficial for 100% of the light beam to reach a single eye. A binocular microscope head would split the light 50% to each eye, which could result in an image that is too dark.

The barrier fluorescence filter PZO OG1 / GG9 mounted under the microscope head protects the eyes from the harmful spectrum of fluorescence illumination.

Note - there is also a PZO GG9 fluorescence filter (also available in my catalog). It is important to select the correct filters for the appropriate applications.

The OG1 / GG9 filter is a separate element that can be detached from the microscope head. It is mounted under the microscope head in a dedicated slot provided for this purpose.

What is this part needed for?

• if the complete microscope head is missing from your microscope
• if this filter is missing from your PZO fluorescence set
• if you want to use this element with microscopes from another manufacturer
• if you want to remove the filter itself and use it for your own DIY purposes
