More about part: Carl Zeiss Jena Jenaval / Jenamed 30 mm eyepiece tube for microscope binocular head (ID: 99659)

Description

An eyepiece tube with a 30 mm diameter for installation in a Carl Zeiss Jena microscope head.

This is an eyepiece tube without diopter adjustment. Carl Zeiss Jena microscope heads with a wide field of view (German: Grossfeld) have one eyepiece tube with diopter adjustment and a second one without it. Here I present the tube without diopter adjustment (straight eyepiece tube).

Compatible with 30 mm microscope heads used, among others, in the following microscopes:
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenamed
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenalab
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenaval
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenatech
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenalumar
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenavert

Some Carl Zeiss Jena Jenalab and Jenamed microscopes (for example the Jenamed Fluorescence) were factory-equipped with binocular heads accepting 23.2 mm eyepieces. In that case this end cap is **not** compatible with that binocular head. By "that" I specifically mean the binocular head, as this is a component of the head rather than of the microscope itself.

Interestingly, 30 mm wide-field binocular heads are also occasionally fitted to older microscopes from the Mikroval series (for example Ergaval and Amplival). When combined with GF-Planachromat or GF-Planapochromat objectives (the latter also used on the Docuval), this provides arguably the best optical combination available for Carl Zeiss Jena microscopes with a 160 mm tube length.
