Description
Lomo Biolam / Erudit microscope stage clips | Bresser Biolam slide clipsTwo clips (one pair) holding the microscope slide on the stages of the LOMO Biolam / LOMO Erudit microscopes and all similar models.
The most important thing in this case are the dimensions of these clips, because they let the user make sure that the clips will fit the microscope stage he owns - from any manufacturer:
- Length
- 50 mm
- Width
- 7 mm
- Diameter of the mounting pin
- 4 mm (+/- 0.3 mm, because the pin is slotted inside and can be expanded / squeezed)
- Height (pin measured together with the head)
- 18 mm
- Diameter of the head
- 9 mm
These all-metal clips are widely used to replace missing parts in many older microscopes during restoration - regardless of the manufacturer and the model of the microscope.
ЛОМО supplied such clips with the following microscopes, among others:
- Lomo M-9
- Lomo МБИ-1 (MBI-1)
- Lomo MBP-1 (MBR-1)
- Lomo Erudit (ЛОМО Эрудит)
- Lomo Biolam Д1 / Д2 / Д3 (D series - portable)
- Lomo Biolam C1 / C2 / C3 (S series - for students)
- Lomo Biolam P1 / P2 / P3 / P4 (R series - working microscopes)
- Lomo Biolam models (ЛОМО Биолам) with the micro fine focus adjustment built into the base (that is, with a two-digit model number, Дxx / Cxx / Pxx)
- as well as those microscopes sold in Germany under the Bresser brand (Bresser Biolam / Bresser Erudit), including the newest ones with illumination integrated into the base
- and the same microscopes sold in the U.K. under the Zenith brand
- Lomo Biolam 70
- Lomo Micmed 1
ЛОМО marked the series in Cyrillic letters, so the letter engraved on the microscope does not always mean what it seems to mean at first glance: Д stands for the Latin D, but the Russian C is read as S and the Russian P as R.
The same models in the notation used on Western markets:
- Lomo Biolam D-1 / D-2 / D-3
- Lomo Biolam S-1 / S-2 / S-3
- Lomo Biolam R-1 / R-2 / R-3 / R-4
Users use various names for this part. All of them mean the same thing: the clips on the microscope stage that hold the slide with the specimen in place. These include:
- stage clips
- microscope stage clips
- slide clips
- spring clips
- stage spring clips
- specimen clips
- specimen spring clips
- slide holder clips
- object clamps
In the last photo in the gallery you can see the complete Lomo Biolam R-1 microscope. In that photo I point out with an arrow where these clips are located on the microscope - so that it is completely clear which part is meant.
In the "compatibility" section I list only a few models of microscopes that these clips fit. It is definitely not a complete list.
