Can someone tell me if I can use this condenser with my Leitz Wetzlar Dialux microscope. Thanks

If it is a 400 series condenser like the 402a you can use it on a Dialux. Pictures of condenser and scope would give better evidence.

The 402a will work on all Leitz stands from the 170 mm era as long as they have the dovetail holder installed. It will not work on the Dialux 20 which is 160 mm tube length.
