Warner Heated Microscope Platforms for Series 20 bath chambers

Add to favorites

Anodized aluminum platforms provide clamping between our Series 20 chambers and their bottom glass coverslips to create a water tight seal between the chamber and its bottom glass coverslip.

Black anodized aluminum provides good heat conductivity and low stray light reflectance.

Each Series 20 Platform is compatible with all Series 20 Microscope Stage Adapters.
Earlier versions of platforms without heating elements can be upgraded.

Platforms are machined from aluminum and finished with a black anodize. This provides excellent heat conductivity and minimizes stray light reflectance. Sliding clamps used on most models permit easy removal of the chamber to change its coverslip. The PH-2 Platform uses a one piece clamp secured with 4 screws, while all other models use two clamps with 2 screws each (i.e. 4 total).

The platforms, wich all are heated, have a pair of 10 Ω resistive elements attached. Control of platform heating is provided by one of our temperature controllers (e.g., TC-344C or TC-324C). Connection to the power source can be made using a cable assembly (e.g. CC-28).

Warner Instrument Series PH platforms are designed to fit the Zeiss 76×26 microscope slide frame (#471719) without the use of a stage adapter. Series PM platforms require a stage adapter. In general, all heater platforms require an insulating material between the platform and frame.
