Microscope Adapters

for Sutter Instrument Light Sources and Wavelength Switchers
Description

 

Lambda Filter wheels

Excitation adapters (suffix EC) include all components necessary for mounting our filter wheels between the microscope lamp housing and excitation port.

Please select adapters with a prefix of 10 for wheels with 25mm apertures, and a prefix of 32 for wheels with a 32 mm aperture.

 

Lambda DG-4/DG-5 PLUS

The Lambda DG-4/DG-5 PLUS will only require a light guide adapter (prefix LG).

 

Lambda LS and Lambda HPX-L5

It is recommended that the Lambda LS be used with the optional LLG (Liquid Light Guide) and a light guide adapter (prefix LG).

 

Lambda XL

To couple a Lambda XL to a microscope, you will need either the LLG/XL, LLG/5XL (5mm diameter Liquid Light Guide), or the LLG/380XL (Liquid Light Guide) and a light guide adapter (prefix LG). Some microscope adapters will only have the Large Format (suffix LF) versions available as that is the only suitable solution.

 

Large Format Light Guide Adapter

The large format light guide adapter (suffix LF) is necessary when a demagnification lens is present in the emission path to eliminate vignetting in the camera. This adapter is also recommended for those customers wishing to eliminate vignetting in the eyepiece.

 

Lambda VF-5 and VF-1

Please phone Sutter to discuss your microscope and/or mounting requirements.

 

SmartShutter®

The SmartShutter® can be mounted on the microscope excitation and transmitted light ports using our standard adapters.

For easy reference:
IQ25 Excitation - use adapters that begin with 10
IQ35 Excitation - use adapters that begin with 32
IQ25 & IQ35 Transmitted light - use adapters ending with TL

 

Optical Decks

Optical deck platforms are used to access the infinity space of the Olympus IX3 microscope and provide a mounting surface for optical and other elements. The Sutter 32 mm filter wheel (part# LB10-W32-Y73) can be mounted directly onto the deck.
