User manual Leica EZ5 3

Thank you for your conﬁdence in our product. We wish you much

enjoyment and success with your new EZ5 stereomicroscope from

Leica Microsystems.

The new Leica EZ5 is an exciting addition to the extensive product

range offered by our Swiss Stereomicroscopy business unit. The

Leica EZ5 has been designed speciﬁcally with a view to OEM appli-

cations. In order to safeguard against ESD, the entire stereomicro-

scope – including the optional cold light source and the stand – has

been constructed with antistatic materials.

While developing the Leica EZ5, we took the greatest care to ensure

that its operation would be simple and self-explanatory. Even

so, please take a little time to read the accompanying operating

instructions. This is the best way to familiarize yourself with all the

features of your stereomicroscope and use it to its full advantage.

And if you have any questions, please contact your Leica repre-

sentative or Leica Microsystems (Switzerland) Ltd., Heerbrugg,

Switzerland. We are gladly at your service. CUSTOMER SERVICE is

a big thing with us – before and after the sale (see page 36).

Safety concept

General notes Read the operating instructions and safety notes before

commissioning.

Proper use The Leica EZ5 is a precision optical instrument designed to

facilitate visual examination of objects, object details or speci-

mens in the ﬁelds of technology and science by magnifying them.

The equipment is supported by a full range of stands, illumination

systems and accessories.

Non-intended use • Using the instrument in any way other than that described in

these instructions may result in personal injury or damage to

property.

• The Leica EZ5 must not be used in examinations of or opera-

tions on the eye.

• Optical systems and mechanical parts must never be

unscrewed from each other unless expressly indicated

in the instructions.

Place of use • The Leica EZ5 is primarily intended for use in enclosed

premises.

• If it is used outdoors, the Leica EZ5 must be protected from

dust and moisture. Electrically powered illumination systems

and stands produced by Leica Microsystems must not be used

outdoors.

Integration in a

third-party product

When installing Leica products into third-party products, note the

following: The manufacturer of the complete system or its dealer

is responsible for following all applicable safety instructions, laws

and guidelines.

Use in clean

rooms

The Leica EZ5 is suitable for use in clean rooms and can be pre-

pared for such use as described on page 27. Please observe the

following rules:

• Never use any procedure other than the one described in these

operating instructions to clean the Leica EZ5 and its acces-

sories. Do not use unsuitable cleaning agents, chemicals or

equipment. Never use chemicals to clean colored surfaces and

accessories with rubberized parts. This may damage surfaces

and abraded particles may contaminate preparations.

• If a user uses chemicals to clean any Leica instrument without

our written approval, he does so at his own risk.

• We will be glad to offer special solutions upon request that

are sufﬁcient for most circumstances. Some products can be

modiﬁed, or we can offer different accessories for use in clean

rooms.

Servicing Only Leica Microsystems-trained service technicians are permit-

ted to carry out repairs. Only original Leica Microsystems spare

parts may be used.

Responsibilities of

the person(s)

in charge of

instrument

• Ensure that all staff who are responsible for operating the

equipment have read and understood these instructions,

particularly the safety notes.

• Ensure that the Leica EZ5 is operated, maintained and repaired

only by authorized and trained staff.

6 User manual Leica EZ5

Workplaces equipped with stereomicroscopes facilitate and

improve the viewing task, but they also impose high demands on

the eyes and holding muscles of the user. Long periods of uninter-

rupted activity may cause asthenopic complaints and injury to

the musculoskeletal system. Appropriate measures should be

adopted to reduce physical stress:

• optimal arrangement of workplace, work assignments and

work ﬂow (changing tasks frequently).

• thorough training of the personnel, giving consideration to

ergonomic and organization aspects.

The ergonomic optics concept and the design of the Leica EZ5

aim to limit the strain on the user to the lowest possible level.

Direct contact with eyepieces is a potential transmission method

for bacterial and viral infections of the eye. Users should be made

aware of the potential risk of infection. This risk can be minimized

by using personal eyepieces or removable eyecups (see page 19).

Eyecups can be purchased separately. For more information,

contact your Leica partner.

Greenough based

optical system

The optical system of the Leica EZ5 consists of two beam paths

converging at 10°. The lens pairs of each optical path are posi-

tioned close together, so the stereomicroscope can be of very

"slender" design, especially towards the base of the instrument.

The advantages of this design are that it has a small space

requirement for use on bonders and in machine applications,

unobstructed access to specimens, plenty of space for tools and

a completely clear view of the object ﬁeld.

The Greenough system enables cost-effective correction of aber-

rations such as chromasia, image ﬁeld curvature, and distortion

with minimal effort. The new Leica EZ5 uses the most corrected

area of each lens for image production. This provides superior

optical performance with large, level and undistorted ﬁelds of

view and chromatically optimized, high-contrast images.

ESD protection The Leica EZ5 together with its cold light source and stand is

made from highly conductive materials with area resistivity of

2×1011 Ohm/square. Charges are cut from 1000V to 100V in less

than 2 seconds.
