9.1.2 Phase Contrast
• Insert a transmitted light specimen.
• Rotate an appropriate objective into place.
Objectives that are suitable for phase
contrast are engraved with PH.
• Bring the image into focus using the focus dial
and set the brightness.
• For an optimal field diaphragm setting, check
the Köhler illumination (→ p. 34).
• Open the aperture diaphragm completely (po-
sition PH).
• Condensers UCL/UCLP and UCA/P:
Set the light ring corresponding to the objec-
tive on the condenser disk.
Example: Light ring 1 belongs to the objective
with the engraving PH 1.
