Light source connector diameter: 15 mm
Manufacturer catalog number: 10450398
Compatibility: the 15 mm connector fits light sources from Schott, Leica, Dolan-Jenner and other manufacturers using this standard
This element is used to transmit light through a fiber optic cable from a light source (illuminator) to a microscope XY stage. Such a stage is then used for transmitted light observation. A setup consisting of a light source - fiber optic light ring - XY stage was used for example in Leica DVM systems or in motorized Märzhäuser / Prior stages used in many microscopes, for example the Leica DM6000 microscope. This is a fiber optic light ring for a stage - not for one specific microscope, because such an illuminated stage can be mounted to various microscopes.
The Leica 10450398 fiber optic light ring with 15 mm connector can be used with the following light sources among others:
- Dolan-Jenner MI-150
- Dolan-Jenner MI-152
- Dolan-Jenner DC950H / HB
- Dolan-Jenner LMI-6000
- Schott KL1500
- Schott KL2500 LCD
- Leica KL1500 LED
- Leica KL300 LED
- KL models were also branded as Zeiss KL1500 / Zeiss KL2500
