Product Overview

The Olympus CX-PCD-2 Phase Contrast Condenser is a versatile 5-position swing-out condenser designed for Olympus CX series upright biological microscopes. The turret provides three phase contrast positions (PH1, PH2, PH3) matched to low, medium, and high magnification phase contrast objectives respectively, enabling label-free, high-contrast imaging of transparent and unstained specimens such as live cells, bacteria, and tissue cultures. The darkfield (DF) position adds further contrast capability for specimens that benefit from oblique illumination, while the brightfield (BF) position supports standard transmitted light observation. A complete, multi-mode condenser solution for CX series microscopes in new condition.
