Carl Zeiss Jena Lumipan microscope pancratic condenser Apl. 1.4 with cardioid darkfield - photo gallery

This is description of this part:

Pancratic microscope condenser for Carl Zeiss Jena Lumipan microscopes.

Basic specifications and parameters:
Manufacturer: Carl Zeiss Jena
Number of lenses: 3
Numerical aperture N.A.: variable, from N.A. 0.16 to N.A. 1.4
Aperture diaphragm: no
Compatible microscope: Carl Zeiss Jena Lumipan

Mechanically, this condenser is mounted on a dovetail guide located beneath the microscope stage.

Several important notes:
- this pancratic condenser is compatible only with the Carl Zeiss Jena Lumipan microscope
- this condenser is not compatible with the Carl Zeiss Jena Nf or Carl Zeiss Jena Nu / Nu2 microscopes, even though the condenser used in those models is very similar
- this condenser does not include an iris diaphragm because the Carl Zeiss Jena Lumipan microscope has its aperture diaphragm located in the microscope base, directly below the condenser

In the last photograph, an arrow indicates which component is being described and where it is located in the microscope, making it easy to identify this part. In addition, the attached video shows how the individual components of this condenser move.

This condenser is often used as a "donor of parts" for DIY projects, for example:
- the Apl. 1.4 lens is often used to modify (upgrade) condensers with a lower numerical aperture N.A. in various microscopes
- the dark-field lens is very often used to build a custom cardioid condenser

What is this part needed for?

• if you own a used Carl Zeiss Jena Lumipan microscope without a condenser
• if you already have a pancratic condenser but it is damaged or of very poor quality
• if you need components from this condenser for your own DIY projects
