This is description of this part:
Primo Plan-ACHROMAT 40x/0.65 ∞/0.17 microscope objective by Carl Zeiss for Zeiss Primostar microscopes.
Basic parameters of this objective:
Manufacturer: Zeiss
Magnification: 40x
Correction: plan achromatic
Engraving on the objective: Primo Plan-ACHROMAT 40x/0,65 ∞/0,17 415500-1602
Numerical aperture N.A.: 0.65
Working distance WD: 0.61 mm
Manufacturer catalog number: 415500-1602
Tube length: infinity
Cover glass: yes, 0.17 mm thick
Immersion: no (dry objective)
Thread: RMS
This objective works properly only with the Zeiss Primostar line. It does not work properly with other Zeiss microscopes, even if they also have an RMS thread and are infinity corrected.
NOTE: many sources state that the Zeiss objective P/N 415500-1611-001 is the successor of this objective. This is not true. In fact, Zeiss 415500-1611-001 is a 40x objective designed for use without a cover glass, mainly for reflected-light (EPI) work.
