# Belongs to category:
Housings and its parts

# Description and specifications:
Side sheet-metal cover for the vertical microscope body of Carl Zeiss Jena Jenaval, Jenavert and similar microscopes.

Compatible with the following Carl Zeiss Jena microscope models:
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenaval
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenalumar
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenapol
- Carl Zeiss Jena Jenavert

This component serves almost exclusively a cosmetic purpose. At both the top and bottom of the sheet-metal cover there are openings through which the long screws pass. These screws secure the transmitted-light lamp housing to the rear of the microscope body (at the bottom) or the reflected-light EPI lamp housing (at the top).

Each microscope has two of these sheet-metal covers—one on the left side and one on the right. Both are identical, so there is no difference between the left-hand and right-hand cover.

The cover is attached using ordinary adhesive and, after many years, it may simply come loose and fall off. These covers are also sometimes lost during repairs or maintenance, so older microscopes are often missing them. Reattaching an original cover is an easy way to restore the microscope to its original appearance.

In the last photograph, an arrow indicates where this component is located on the microscope, making it easy to identify.
