ErgoModules

ErgoModules bring the microscope’s eyepieces closer to the operator by inserting a wedge below the eyepieces. This promotes an upright position, regardless of the microscope user’s height.

Leica Microsystems offers two principles: Variable ErgoModules vary microscope height that can adapt to the user and thereby optimize the viewing height and angle, or Fixed ErgoModules, which increase the height of your binocular tube with these fixed spacers.

Please refer to the ergonomics overview to learn which ErgoModules fit which stereo microscope.

Leica Microsystems offers two principles of ErgoModules

  • Variable
    Vary microscope height with ErgoModules that can adapt to the user and thereby optimize the viewing height and angle
  • Fixed
    Increase the height of your binocular tube with these fixed spacers.

ErgoWedge 5° – 25° – Flexible wedge for maximum comfort

Mounts to M series stereo microscopes allow users to set their most comfortable viewing angle from 5° to 25°. Combine with other ergo modules for up to 70° viewing angle adjustment.

ErgoModule 30 mm – 120 mm – Comfortable observation for our taller users

The ErgoModule 30 mm – 120 mm “stretches” low-standing stereo microscopes (e.g. M50 stereo microscope), allowing taller users to sit and observe comfortably.

ErgoModule 50 mm – Increase the height of your M series stereo microscope

The ErgoModule 50 mm raises the location of the eyepieces by 50 mm so that the user can sit upright and be appreciably more comfortable.

ErgoWedge 15° – Improves viewing conditions

A fixed intermediate piece adds a 15° angular tilt range to our binocular tubes. This idea is for systems that a single user with repetitive tasks normally uses.
