OLYMPUS IX3 DECKS
Custom solutions for open source microscopy

S P E C S H E E T

The Olympus IX3 modular inverted microscope has
been designed with third-party integrators and academic innovators in mind. The flexible deck system allow companies such as Cairn to develop sub-systems,
and even complete instruments, which can be fully
tested in-house and then installed within seconds on
any IX53, IX73 or IX83 frame anywhere in the world. We
have already developed four modules to work with the
frame and have many further ideas in the pipeline.

IX3 modular inverted microscope

Researchers sometimes just want a virtual optical
bench based around a stable platform with high performance objective lenses, camera port and eyepieces. In this instance we can provide a set of two horizontal and one vertical breadboards to allow them to
design 3D optical sub-systems in infinity space.
Horizontal breadboard

Tiltable dichroic cube

OptoSpin filter wheel

Cairn photometer

In a diagnostic or analytical environment it is important for the instrument to be easy to use and
maintain; a one box solution housed in an Olympus deck has distinct advantages over the complexity of interfacing with a conventional microscope. The Cairn Photometer is our most comprehensive deck to date forming the heart of a complete photometric timelapse illumination, detection and analysis system for fast calcium and voltage measurements.
