This is description of this part:
Lomo microscope condenser with a numerical aperture of 1.2.
In the manufacturer's catalog this condenser is designated as KOH-3. This is a Cyrillic notation, where the letter "H" corresponds to the Latin "N". This means that the model name written in the Latin alphabet is KON-3, where "KON" is simply an abbreviation of the word condenser.
Basic data:
- Element: Abbe microscope condenser
- Manufacturer: Lomo
- Manufacturer designation: KOH-3
- Numerical aperture: 1.2
- Numerical aperture with top lens removed: 0.3
- Mounting diameter: 37 mm
- Iris diaphragm: YES
- Wide-field lens: YES, with the possibility of moving it into / out of the light path
- filter holder: YES
This condenser also fits microscopes from other manufacturers (e.g. Meopta, Olympus, Carl Zeiss Jena and many others) with a 37 mm condenser mount.
Important: Although the mounting diameter of the KOH-3 condenser is 37 mm, the top lens slightly protrudes beyond the condenser body. For this reason, in some cases installation requires the following steps:
- unscrew the top lens
- install the condenser in the holder
- screw the top lens back in
Note: If you use this condenser with a microscope from a manufacturer other than Lomo, please note that:
- the filter holder is designed for filters with a diameter of 33 mm
- while most manufacturers use the 32 mm standard diameter
As a result, 32 mm filters cannot be used in the KOH-3 condenser without modification - they simply fall out because the holder diameter is too large.
What is this part needed for?
- if you have a Lomo microscope and want to use this condenser
- if you want to use this element in a microscope from another manufacturer with 74 mm mount diameter
- if you want to assemble a fully equipped microscope with as many accessories as possible and this condenser is missing from your set
