Defines recommended diameters for permitting the interchangeability of spectral filters in microscopes, in addition to permissible filter material defects and processing faults. Covers two kinds of spectral filters: 1 Filters for use both in the observation light path and illumination light path: 2 Filters for use only in the illumination light path.

This International Standard specifies recommended diameters to allow the interchangeability of spectral filters used in microscopes, as well as permissible filter material defects and processing faults.

This International Standard differentiates between two forms of spectral filters:

Form A: Filters to be used both in the observation light path and in the illumination light path;

Form B: Filters to be used solely in the illumination light path.
