This is description of this part:
Olympus U-TR30 / U-TR30-2 - top housing part (cover) of the microscope trinocular head
The Olympus U-TR30 / U-TR30-2 photo-trinocular heads are most often used in the following microscopes:
- Olympus CX30 / CX31
- Olympus CX40 / CX41 / CX43
- Olympus BX40 / BX41 / BX43
- Olympus BX50 / BX51 / BX53
- Olympus BX60 / BX61
- and probably others
This is a black housing made of cast metal. On the inside it carries the number AB8931 - worth noting, although I do not know whether this is a fixed part number or the number of the particular casting mould specimen.
Because this is a brittle casting, the housing can crumble, crack or break. The remedy is then to replace the complete head or just this part of the housing.
In the compatibility section you will find an example list of microscopes the U-TR30 fits, although that list is not complete.
What is this part needed for?
- as a service item in the form of replacing the entire element when the housing in your head is in very poor condition or, for example, has cracked
