OPTICAL EQUIPMENT

INSTEC's optical accessories enhance the performance of many of its stages by providing sample mobility with XY sample positioning dials, extending chamber heights with spacer kits, extending optical working distances, or securing stages to microscopes and spectrometers with custom adapters.

Vacuum Pick-Up Tool

Battery-powered suction pick-up tool with built-in vacuum pump

Max. pick-up suction capacity is 120gf

Antistatic material is used

ROTATIONAL MOUNTING RINGS

Rotational stage mounting rings allow a stage to be mounted onto a existing microscope rotational stage

Easily attaches to the bottom of a stage and seats inside the aperture of the rotational stage

Standard adapters for commonly used rotating stages and custom adapter options available

DOVETAIL MOUNTING ADAPTER

The dovetail mounting adapter mounts a stage in place of a microscope rotational stage

The adjustable thumb screws make this ring compatible with microscope dovetail sizes 11.4 cm and smaller

VERTICAL MOUNTING ADAPTER

Vertical mounts allow a stage to be positioned perpendicular to the benchtop, particularly useful for integrating a stage into an FTIR, X-ray, or laser system

Custom aperture heights and mounting point configurations available (representative image shown measures 9.2 cm to the center of the aperture)

SPACER KITS

Spacer kits extend the chamber heights of both the inner cover and outer lid to fit thick samples

Kit includes an inner spacer, outer spacer, and inner skirt

Spacer kits available for many stage and plate models but are necessary for RSH-S1 or LC cell holders

XY POSITIONER

10μm resolution

Compatable with all side loading Instec stages

Sample mount for both LC Cell holders and microscope slides

LWDC2

Longer working distance to compensate for the increased space between samples and a conventional condenser

Allows for correct Kohler illumination and the best possible sample image in transmitted light microscopy

20 mm working distance and 0.55 numerical aperture with adjustable iris

Detachable and rotatable polarizer

Universal dovetail fitting compatible with most upright optical microscopes

Ideal for thermal microscopy applications

MITO2 DIGITAL CAMERA

Real time image monitoring and image capture

Temperature-triggered image capture

Standard C-mount microscope connection
