Description
Leica DM4000 / DM6000 - beam splitter prism for P/N 11505145 / 11505146 microscope trinocular headBeam splitter prism for Leica trinocular microscope head.
This specific prism was removed from a motorized trinocular head (manufacturer number 11505145), but it is very likely also compatible with the identical, but non-motorized (manual) head number 11505146.
For the motorized movement system in the Leica 11505145 head, this prism is mounted on a carriage which may differ from the one moving the prism in the manual version of this head (11505146). To use this prism in the trinocular head 11505146, it must be removed (prism only) and re-glued into a new position.

- Leica DM4000
- Leica DM4500
- Leica DM5000
