# Part manufacturer:
Zeiss

# Full manufacturer name:
Carl Zeiss West Germany

# Other names of this manufacturer:
- Carl Zeiss West
- Carl Zeiss West Germany
- Opton
These are names commonly used to refer to this manufacturer of microscopes and microscope parts, even if they are not official. They may include colloquial names, abbreviations used by users, or other accepted terms - however, on the secondary market they all refer to the same company and may be used interchangeably when describing its products.

# Belongs to category:
Housings and its parts

# Description and specifications:
Plastic top cover (housing) of the MC 63 control console, 45 60 45 and 47 74 25.

What I offer here is NOT a complete Zeiss control console. It is its UPPER HOUSING PART. There are no cables, circuit boards or buttons inside.

The complete control console P/N 456045 can be found here: https://www.microscopeparts.eu/part/99632.
The complete control console P/N 477425 can be found here: https://www.microscopeparts.eu/part/99631.

The plastic housing of these units is exposed to mechanical damage, especially as this plastic becomes more and more brittle over the years. To avoid working on a device with a cracked housing, it is enough to replace it with an intact one, which is exactly what I offer here.

# Examples of use
- as a service part for repairing the Zeiss MC 63 Steuerpult 45 60 45 / Zeiss MC 63 Steuerpult 47 74 25 control console
- when the existing housing is in very poor condition, scratched or discoloured
- when the existing housing has mechanical damage such as chips or cracks
