DE MTP/MPO-APC with Connector Housing, Nylatron Adapter
DE2532
Changing Adapter
The adapters on DE2500 and DE3200 Microscopes can quickly be changed out by loosening the two thumb screws. When aligning the adapter use the lower powered 5x objective. Individual adapters can be moved back and forth to align them with others. This is used to “parfocal” the adapters to one another. This minimizes the amount of focusing required when switching connector styles.
Setting APC adapters on the DE2500 and DE3200 Series
Use the two end positions on the DE2503 stage for setting up 2.5mm or 1.25mm adapters. A third mounting hole is provided to angle the adapter at 8°. Insert the connector key up on the left-hand position and key down on the right-hand position. As with setting up any bracket, it may be easier to use the low (5x) powered objective first. The angle can then be checked by inserting a connector and making sure the light is centered.
