🔧 Product Description
The Olympus U-RLGAD is a light guide adapter that connects the Olympus FV-ULHFI fiber optic illuminator to the light guide port of Olympus AX, BX, and IX series microscopes. Fiber optic light sources deliver high-intensity, heat-free illumination to the microscope via a flexible light guide cable — the adapter provides the mechanical and optical interface that ensures the light guide is correctly seated, aligned, and secured at the microscope end of the connection. A properly fitted adapter is essential for maximizing light throughput, preventing stray light, and ensuring the illumination axis is correctly aligned with the microscope optical path. The U-RLGAD is the OEM Olympus solution for this interface, guaranteeing a precise fit and consistent optical performance across AX, BX, and IX series platforms. Built to Olympus factory specifications, it is the correct replacement or spare adapter for any system using the FV-ULHFI illuminator with an AX, BX, or IX series microscope.
🔎 Typical Applications
