Exciter Balancer U-EXBABG/EXBAUB/EXBAUG (for exclusive use with the BX-RFA/RFAA)

}When a fluorescence image obtained by multiple excitation of U/B/G is observed with dual- or triple-band fluorescence

mirror units, use the exciter balancer to select the balance between the excitation light intensities of the fluorochromes.

* To use an exciter balancer with the BX-RFAA, remove the adjustment lever and attach it to the opposite end.

Operation Procedure

Observing a Double Stained Specimen

1. Set up normal reflected fluorescence observation.

2. Mount the fluorescence mirror units for double staining and engage them in the light path.

1. Stand the adjustment lever @ of the exciter balancer vertically and insert

it the ND filter insertion slot with the same number as the slider on the

rear part of the right side of the illuminator.

· The insertion position is variable depending on the type of the exciter

balancer.

· Always insert the exciter balancer so that the clamping screw faces to-

ward the rear.

2. Tighten the clamping screw using the Allen screwdriver.

# Due to its characteristics, the G-excitation

has a narrower intensity control range than

the U- and B-excitation. The intensity con-

trol range is also variable depending on

the status of specimen and variance in

mirror units' characteristics.

# Lighting irregularities may be observed on

the upper and lower edges of the field dye

to the rotation angles of filters and the vari-

ance in mirror units' characteristics. How-

ever, these lighting irregularities do not af-

fect the photographed area.
