550 nm green bandpass interference filter Standard 45 mm diameter for Olympus filter holders Improves contrast in brightfield microscopy Ideal for phase contrast & photomicrography Compatible with many Olympus BX, CX & IX microscopes Precision optical coating for narrow spectral transmission Genuine Olympus optical accessory 📘 Product Overview The Olympus IF-550 Green Interference Filter is a precision 45 mm bandpass filter designed to transmit green light centered around 550 nm. This filter enhances image contrast and sharpness in transmitted light microscopy by narrowing the illumination spectrum to an optimized wavelength range. Interference filters offer significantly tighter wavelength control compared to standard absorption filters, making the IF-550 ideal for contrast-critical brightfield imaging, phase contrast microscopy, and photomicrography applications. This filter integrates seamlessly into compatible Olympus microscope filter holders commonly found in BX, CX, and IX series systems. 🔬 Key Features & Benefits ✔ Narrow Bandpass Transmission (~550 nm)Optimized green illumination improves resolution perception and contrast in biological and material samples. ✔ True Interference Coating TechnologyMultilayer dielectric coatings provide precise spectral control and higher transmission efficiency. ✔ 45 mm Standard MountFits common Olympus transmitted light filter holders. ✔ Enhanced Brightfield ImagingGreen light is often preferred for visual acuity and camera sensitivity balance. ✔ Ideal for Digital ImagingProvides consistent illumination spectrum for reproducible image capture. 🧪 Typical Applications Biological brightfield microscopy Phase contrast imaging Pathology & clinical lab work Materials science inspection Photomicrography and documentation 📊 Technical Specifications Model: IF-550 Type: Interference (bandpass) filter Center Wavelength: ~550 nm (Green) Diameter: 45 mm Application: Transmitted light microscopy Mount Type: Olympus filter holder compatible 🛒 Condition New / Open Box Professionally inspected prior to shipment Securely packaged for laboratory transport 🤝 Purchasing & Support Spach Optics specializes in high-quality new and pre-owned microscope components.
