The installation is not recommended for microscopes that have plastic bodies as damage to the microscope may occur.

Questions and Answers

Hristo Bakovski (2023.08.15)

Will this by any chance be able to work with the Levenhuk Discovery microscopes, specifically the Discovery Femto?

Customer service:

Hi Hristo,

thank you for your query.

Unfortunately this mechanical scale is not compatible with Discovery Femto microscopes.

The scale is compatible with the following microscopes:

Levenhuk 2S NG Monocular Microscope
Levenhuk 3S NG Monocular Microscope
Levenhuk 5S NG Monocular Microscope
Levenhuk 7S NG Monocular Microscope
Levenhuk Rainbow 2L PLUS Orange Microscope
Levenhuk Rainbow 50L PLUS Orange Microscope

Is there any additional information you might need?

George (2019.12.14)

Is it normal for the scale to impede movement of the lens (40x) in the 50L microscope? (rotation is not possible because the scale impedes movement when zoomed in)
