Carl Zeiss Jena Abbe 1.2 microscope condenser - 3,5 mm handle for moving the iris diaphragm - photo gallery

This is description of this part:

Ring with a handle (lever) with a width of 3,5 mm for moving the iris diaphragm. The element contains grooves into which the protruding "pins" of the diaphragm blades are inserted.

This is an element for repair of a microscope condenser by Carl Zeiss Jena, model Abbe 1.2.
Please note that this is an element (component) for a microscope part (condenser), not for a specific microscope model.

The handle in this ring breaks very frequently, and then the iris diaphragm cannot be opened or closed and the condenser loses its functionality. In such a case, instead of replacing the entire condenser, it is enough to replace only this element - that is, to repair the condenser (recommendation: always repair - never throw away).

Note - over the years Carl Zeiss Jena produced the Abbe 1.2 condenser in different versions, and this ring is available in at least two variants:
- ring with a thickness of 2.5 mm and a handle width of 6 mm
- ring with a thickness of 2 mm and a handle width of 3.5 mm

Here I present and offer a ring with a thickness of 2 mm and a handle width of 3,5 mm. Be sure to check whether this is exactly the ring you need.

• as a service part for replacement if the ring or the handle for moving the iris diaphragm has broken off, which is a common failure
