This is description of this part:
Cast or injection-molded metal parts of Carl Zeiss Jena carry their own numbers. This microscope element bears the number 2583 (full designation: Si10 CZ 2583).
Carl Zeiss Jena CF-250 microscopes have a modular design, and the microscope part to which the eyepieces are mounted (commonly referred to as the "head", "binocular" or "binocular tube") is a separate element from the angled tube (sometimes the German term "Winkeltubus" is used). If the angled tube has a photographic output, it is referred to as a "Fototubus". It is precisely for this microscope part that the element is offered and described here.
Note - although the Carl Zeiss Jena Jenapol and Jenatech microscopes also belong to the CF-250 series, they have a differently constructed photographic output and this part DOES NOT FIT them.
The exact dimensions of the described and offered microscope element can be seen in the gallery photos.
What is this part needed for?
- as a service element for replacing the entire element if the housing of the trino head in your microscope is damaged (e.g. cracked) or in very poor condition
- this is a great base for this if you want to build your own photo tube or projector - and you need the original mounting connector
