Viewing Head. Monocular, binocular (Seidentopf), or
trinocular (Seidentopf) heads rotate 360° and are inclined
at 30°. All models feature interpupillary and dioptric
adjustment. The trinocular heads feature a sliding main
prism (100/100 split) to provide either 100% of the image
to the camera port or 100% of the image to the eyepieces.
Eyepieces. 10X widefield (DIN) with a field number of 18.
Nosepiece. Quadruple, reversed, ball bearing nosepiece
with high-grade lubricant and positive stops. The nosepiece
is reversed (inward-facing) to allow for easier manipulation
of slides and to aid in keeping the objectives clean.
Objectives. Choose from achromatic or plan achromatic.
Objectives are made to DIN standards and are coated.
Stage. Delivering a high level of fluid motion control and
longevity, the stage measures 125x135mm. Features a
removable spring-clip slide holder and a chemical resistant
finish. Motion is controlled by a right-hand, low position
coaxial control and is driven by a rack and pinion system.
Focusing Movement. Coaxial, low-position, coarse and
fine focus controls feature a 40mm focusing range and are
graduated to 2 microns per division. Fitted with tension
adjustment and safety up-stop.
Condenser. Brightfield models come with a 1.25 N.A. Abbe
condenser. Phase contrast models come with a 1.25 N.A.
Zernike condenser with phase annulus rings for 10X, 25X,
40X, and 100X; also has a “0” setting for brightfield work.
All condensers are mounted on a rack and pinion focusing
mechanism and feature spring-loaded centering knobs and
iris diaphragm with a swing-in filter holder.
Illumination. 20W variable halogen light source. Comes
with blue, green (phase contrast only) and neutral density
filters. 0.5A 250V fuse.
