Antivibrationpad_en.fm Seite 13 Mittwoch, 14. Juni 2006 4:19 16 1 Safety instructions and operational limitations The antivibration pads are used to prevent the effects of external shaking or vibrations in the microscopy area in the lab. The antivibration pads are positioned under the respective feet of the microscope. Risk of injury! Microscopes can be heavy. The microscope must be lifted and placed on the antivibration pads.
Antivibrationpad_en.fm Seite 14 Mittwoch, 14. Juni 2006 4:19 16 2 Functional principle The antivibration pads should isolate microscope workplaces from external oscillations. The antivibration pads are positioned under the respective feet of the microscope. For an example see Figure 1. Functional principle 2 Figure 1: View of a microscope with antivibration pads, with load of two microscope feet (front) and one each (rear).
Antivibrationpad_en.fm Seite 15 Mittwoch, 14. Juni 2006 4:19 16 2 Functional principle The antivibration pads consist of two half-shells connected inside by an insulating material. See Figure 2. 2 Functional principle Figure 2: Antivibration pad The insulation material absorbs incoming external vibrations, footfalls and building vibrations that affect the microscope setup. The insulation material functions best when it is slightly compressed.

Both shells come in contact with one another. Use stronger antivibration pad. No or too little damping after a longer period of time Antivibration pad is too soft. Use stronger antivibration The damping material is compad. pressed too much over time by a too heavy load. The initial sinking depth exceeded 2 mm.
