# Belongs to category:
Condensers

# Description and specifications:
Complete condenser for the Vickers Patholux microscope

The set includes:
- condenser with unscrewable upper lens
- iris diaphragm (aperture diaphragm)
- wide-field lens
- mounting slot fitting the Vickers Patholux microscope

Unscrewing the upper lens reduces the numerical aperture of the condenser and allows optimal image quality when working with low-magnification objectives.

The lower wide-field lens can be inserted or removed from the optical path. Its presence in the optical path ensures illumination of the entire field of view when using very low-magnification objectives and prevents vignetting.

# Examples of use
- if you have a microscope without a condenser
- if your condenser is damaged or of very poor quality

# Removed from microscope:
Vickers Patholux

# Also compatible with the following microscopes:
Vickers Patholux
