Prior Scientific is pleased to introduce the new HF108IX3 Filter Wheel deck designed for the Olympus IX3 inverted microscope systems. Simple cassette like insertion into the side deck of the Olympus IX3 makes installation quick and easy. The HF108IX3 provides a compact high speed filter wheel option which accommodates up to eight 32 mm diameter filters. The unit is mounted below the nosepiece which enables the user to not only switch between wavelengths at high speed, but also to see the fluorescent images through the eyepieces of the IX3 microscope as well as the camera. The HF108IX3 Filter Wheel is compatible with the Olympus ZDC (Z Drift Compensator) and is software compatible with all Prior Scientific products.
