Product Description
Ergonomic and evolutive, the bScope® compound microscope series is extensively used in secondary schools, universities, small and mid-sized laboratories and for veterinary applications. With a compact and ergonomic structure, bScope® microscopes include height-adjustable eyepieces and low stage controls that minimize fatigue during long work sessions. Additional highlights include LED illumination, rackless mechanical stage, cable management system, and cordless functionality for ultimate portability (rechargeable batteries sold separately). The robust and compact size of the bScope® series with its cable storage system allows more working space, safe operation and easy storage.
1. EYEPIECES
High wide field HWF 10x/20mm secured eyepiece(s) with 20mm field of view
2. HEAD
Binocular or trinocular head Siedentopf type head, 360° rotatable, with 30° inclined Ø 23.2mm tubes
Binocular and trinocular models are equipped with a diopter ± 5 adjustment on left eyepiece
The interpupillary distance is adjustable between 48 to 76mm
The models equipped with plan infinity corrected PLi objectives have a unique swiveling system of the eyepiece tubes for ergonomic positioning of both tubes in a high (431mm) and in a low position (377mm)
The trinocular head comes with a Ø 23.2mm tube, ensuring a maximum of flexibility and has a fixed light path beam splitter (20:80) and generates an erect image
3. NOSEPIECE
Revolving and reversed ball-bearing quintuple nosepiece
4. OBJECTIVES - 45MM PARFOCAL
The state-of-the-art production techniques and multi-layer coatings used for the manufacturing of the objectives enable the bScope® to be used for the most demanding applications. World class spherical aberration correction and modern CNC and assembly technology ensure the perfect centering of the objectives
All S40x, S60x and S100x oil immersion objectives are spring loaded
All optics are anti-fungus treated and anti-reflection coated for maximum light throughput
5. CONDENSER FOR BRIGHTFIELD
The standard in height adjustable Abbe N.A. 1.25 condenser for brightfield comes with an iris diaphragm
6. FOCUSING
Double coaxial, low-positioned coarse and fine adjustments with 180 graduations. Precision 11µm, 200µm per rotation, total travel approximately 19mm. Supplied with an adjustable rack stop to prevent damage to sample and objectives. The coarse adjustment is equipped with friction control
7. STAGE
The bScope® is equipped with a scratch-resistant 152/197x131mm stage with integrated 75x36mm X-Y rackless mechanical stage, Vernier scale, soft-close removable specimen holder
The rackless stage has no protruding parts, enables smoother movements and is safer to use. Low-positioned X-Y control knobs prevent fatigue during long working sessions
8. POLARIZATION
The bScope® has an integrated slot above the nosepiece for an optional polarization filter
9. ILLUMINATION
The microscopes of the bScope® are equipped with a 3W NeoLED adjustable illumination system for increased light output and a 100-240 Vac integrated power supply. On request, rechargeable batteries are also available
The innovative NeoLED™ design is a combination of a custom LED and a specially designed thin lens with a short focal length in order to obtain three main benefits:
-More oblique light from the LED light source can be captured, which increases the light output significantly
-Less energy is required to achieve this level of light intensity
-The larger aperture of NeoLED™ allows the optical systems of the microscope to produce images at higher resolutions, very close to the theoretical diffraction limit of the optics
10. KÖHLER ILLUMINATION
A Köhler illumination ensures all infinity corrected IOS models the highest possible contrast and the maximum achievable resolving power. It generates a uniform illumination of the sample and eliminates all interference from dust on lenses and side glare of the light source
11. CORDLESS USE
The optional rechargeable batteries turn the bScope® into a cordless system
12. CSS - CABLE STORAGE SYSTEM
Allows users to easily stow away excess cable length into the back of the instrument during operation and to roll up the power cable for easy storage
13. CARRYING GRIP
The integrated carrying grip at the back of the microscope ensures safe transportation of the microscope
14. ANTI-THEFT SLOT
At the back of the microscope a Kensington Security Slot is placed, which can be used to secure the instrument from theft
15. APL (Antimicrobial Protection Layer)
Developed with a protective microbe-resistant coating, the bScope® microscope series utilizes a revolutionary paint treatment that helps restrict the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria and mold, which makes it an ideal solution for any laboratory environment
16. PACKAGE CONTENT
Smart Styrofoam packaging ensures a low environmental footprint while maintaining maximum safety during transport. Supplied with power cords, dust cover, a spare fuse, white filter, user manual and 5mL immersion oil
