Accessories

Dovetail Probe Holder (PH-1000)

Dovetail probe holder to fit bars/probes

Extended Right Angled Kopf Mount (IVM-650-00)

Allows you to mount the IVM in one of four mounting positions on the Kopf or Stoelting manipulator.

LBM-7 Adjustable Mount (IVM-510-00)

This allows the approach axis of the LBM-7 to be removed, enabling the IVM be mounted in its place. It can then be rotated and locked in position at the correct angle.

LBM-7 Fixed Mount (IVM-505-00)

Allows you to mount the IVM on the LBM-7 either to the approach axis stage or to the sliding carriage attached to the approach axis. If mounted on the approach axis stage it can only do so in the same axis as the stage. If mounted on the sliding bracket it can be mounted at 90º or in the same axis as the approach axis.

Extended Probe Holder

To hold capillary glass of 1-2 mm in diameter.

Right Angled Kopf Mount (IVM-520-00)

Allows you to mount the IVM in a single mounting position on the Kopf or Stoelting manipulator.
