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.
