bScope for phase contrast
These models are also available as in vitro medical devices, EU MDR 2017-746. Please contact us for more information.
Eyepieces
Secured wide-field HWF Plan 10x eyepieces with 20 mm field of view. The eyepiece of monocular models is supplied with a pointer.
HEAD
- The bScope is equipped with a monocular head with a 45° inclined tube (Ø 23.2 mm tubes) or a Siedentopf head, which is 360° rotatable and equipped with a 30° inclined tube with Ø 23.2 mm.
- Binocular and trinocular models have a dioptre adjustment of ± 5 on the left eyepiece.
- The interpupillary distance is adjustable between 48 and 76 mm.
- The trinocular head comes with a Ø 23.2 mm tube. The tube guarantees maximum flexibility. It has a beam splitter with a fixed light path (20:80) and produces an upright image
REVOLVER
Inverse 5x objective revolver
LENSES - 45 MM PARFOCAL
The state-of-the-art production techniques and multi-layer coatings used in the manufacture of bScope lenses enable the bScope to be used for the most demanding applications. World-class spherical aberration correction and modern CNC and assembly technology ensure perfect centring of the lenses
- Phase contrast models: Plan Phase IOS INFINITY-corrected 10x/0.25 - 20x/0.40 - S40x/0.65 and S100x/1.25 immersion oil lenses
All S40x, S60x and S100x immersion oil lenses are spring-loaded. All lenses are anti-fungal treated and AR coated to ensure maximum light transmission.
FOCUS ADJUSTMENT
Double coaxial, low-positioned coarse and fine adjustment knobs with 180 increments. Accuracy 1.11 µm 200 µm per revolution, total approx. 19 mm. Supplied with adjustable stage lock to prevent damage to the specimen and objective. The coarse adjustment is equipped with friction control.
STAGE
- The bScope has a scratch-resistant 152/197 x 131 mm stage, equipped with an integrated 75 x 36 mm X/Y cross stage without protruding rack, vernier scale, soft-close removable sample holder.
- The cross table without protruding rack has no protruding parts, enabling smoother movements and safer use. A low-positioned XY controller prevents errors during intensive, prolonged work sessions. The bScope can also be supplied with a heated stage, which can be adjusted up to 50 degrees Celsius using a PID temperature controller. Only available for newly purchased microscopes.
CONDENSER FOR ZERNIKE PHASE CONTRAST
The height-adjustable Zernike 1.25 phase contrast condenser comes with phase ring spaces for 10/20/S40x and S100x lenses, an iris diaphragm and a filter holder. The condenser also includes a bright field position for bright field microscopy. Phase contrast lenses Phase PLI versions. The scope of delivery includes a centring telescope and green filter.
POLARISATION
The bScope has an integrated slot above the revolver for an optional polarisation filter.
Lighting
The microscopes in the bScope series are equipped with an adjustable illumination system and a 3 W NeoLED for increased light output. Optionally, the microscope can be supplied with 3 rechargeable batteries for cordless operation.
KÖHLER LIGHTING
Köhler lighting for all IOS infinity-corrected models ensures maximum contrast and the highest achievable resolution. It produces uniform lighting of the sample and eliminates any interference from dust on the lenses and/or side glare from the light source.
Köhler lighting is optional for non-IOS models.
NEOLED™ LIGHTING
The 3 W adjustable Köhler NEOLED transmitted light lighting has an internal 100-240 V power supply, which allows for a wide range of applications. The innovative NeoLED offers larger apertures, allowing the optical system of the bScope microscope to display images at higher resolution. Another advantage of the NeoLED is its low energy consumption, no heating and long service life.
WIRELESS USE
The optional AA batteries transform the microscope into a cordless system.
CSS - CABLE STORAGE SYSTEM
bScope allows the user to easily store the power cable in the back of the device. This prevents excess cable length and creates a safer working environment. Roll up the cable completely for easy storage.
ANTI-THEFT SLOT
There is a Kensington security slot on the back of the microscope that can be used to secure the instrument against theft
CARRYING HANDLE
The integrated carrying handle on the back of the microscope ensures safe transport of the microscope.
