Description
Olympus BH2-NAN-2 microscope 45° rotatable analyzer slide and 360° rotatable polarizer | EPI polarisation filterSet of two polarizing sliders for microscopes: the Olympus BH2-NAN-2 slider with a rotatable polarizing analyzer and a rotatable polarizer for Olympus BH-2 microscopes with a reflected light illuminator.
Olympus BH2-NAN-2 analyzer slider:
- Slider type
- rotatable polarizing analyzer
- Rotation
- the analyzer rotates within a range of 0-45 degrees
- Marking on the slider
- Olympus BH2-NAN-2
- Model in the manufacturer catalog
- BH2NAN2
- Dimensions
- width 45 mm, thickness: 7.5 mm, overall length: 68.5 mm, length of the inserted part: 48.5 mm
- Intended use
- for the EPI reflected light illuminator
Olympus polarizer slider:
- Slider type
- rotatable polarizer
- Rotation
- the polarizer rotates within a range of 0-360 degrees
- Marking on the slider
- none
- Model in the manufacturer catalog
- unknown
- Empty position
- yes - the polarizer has two positions, one with the polarizing filter and the other empty
- Dimensions
- width 45 mm, thickness: 6 mm, overall length: 85 mm
- Intended use
- for the EPI reflected light illuminator
- Notes
- the absence of any marking on the slider suggests that it is not a pull-out slider, but is permanently mounted in the EPI reflected light illuminator - it can, however, be moved between the empty position and the polarizer position
If you want to use this slider in a different microscope - check the shape and the exact dimensions shown in the photos.
Please note - the commonly used terminology is slightly disordered, and foreign as well as incorrect names are often used. The most common mistake is that the analyzer is called a polarizer - and unfortunately this mistake is so frequent that it has to be taken into account. Here are examples of the names in use:
- polaryzator
- polarisator
- polarizer
- polariser
- filtr polaryzacyjny
- filtr POL
- circular polariser
- CPL Filter
- POL filter
- polarisations Filter
- polarization Filter
- analizator
- analisator
- Analysator
- POL analizer
- polarization analyser
Unfortunately, I do not know the model of the EPI reflected light illuminator these sliders fit. Fortunately, Mr Thomas Woitzik has photos of an Olympus BH2 BHS microscope with exactly this EPI equipment on the pages of his excellent online shop: [[ LINK ]]
