Specifications

EYEPIECES
Wide field HWF 10x/22 mm secured eyepieces with 22 mm field of view (Ø 30 mm tube)

HEAD
The bScope® is equipped with a Siedentopf type head, 360° rotatable and equipped with 30° inclined Ø 30 mm tubes and  with a ± 5 diopter adjustment on left eyepiece. The interpupillary distance is adjustable between 48 to 76 mm

The trinocular head comes with a Ø 23.2 mm tube, ensuring maximum flexibility. The prisms inside the heads are designed to minimize the light absorption for perfect digital imaging. The trinocular head has a light path selector (100:0 / 0:100) and generates an erect image

NOSEPIECE
Revolving and reversed ball-bearing quintuple nosepiece

OBJECTIVES
The state-of-the-art production techniques and multi layer coatings used for the manufacturing of the bScope® objectives enables 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

•  E-plan or Plan infinity corrected EPLi or PLi 4x/0.10, 10x/0.25, 20x/0.40, S40x/0.65, S60x/0.85 and S100x/1.25 oil immersion IOS objectives for applications where violet or ultra-violet excitation is not needed

•  Plan Fluarex infinity corrected PLFi 4x/0.10, 10x/0.25, 20x/0.40, S40x/0.65 and S100x/0.90 IOS objectives for applications where either higher resolving power or either violet or ultra-violet excitation is needed

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

FOCUSING
Double coaxial, low-positioned coarse and fine adjustments with 180 graduations. Precision 1.1 µm, 200 µm per rotation, total travel range is approximately 19 mm. Supplied with an adjustable rack stop to prevent damage to sample and objectives. The coarse adjustment is equipped with friction control

STAGE
The bScope® is equipped with a scratch-resistant 152/197 x 131 mm stage with integrated 75 x 36 mm X-Y rackless mechanical stage, Vernier scale, soft-close removable specimen holder.

The rackless stage has no protruding parts, enables more smooth movements and is safer in use. Low-positioned X-Y control knobs prevent fatigue during long working sessions. The bScope® can be equipped with a heating stage which can be set up to 50° Celsius by a PID temperature controller. Only available with newly purchased microscopes

CONDENSER FOR BRIGHTFIELD
The standard height adjustable Abbe N.A. 1.25 condenser for brightfield comes with an iris diaphragm and swing-out filter holder

CONDENSER FOR ZERNIKE PHASE CONTRAST
>The height adjustable Zernike NA. 1.25 phase contrast disc condenser comes with phase annuli for 10/20/S40x and S100x phase contrast objectives, an iris diaphragm, a swing-out filter holder and also a BF position for brightfield contrast. Phase contrast objectives in either EPL-PHi or PL-PHi phase contrast version. Supplied with alignment telescope and green filter

CONDENSER FOR SIMPLE PHASE CONTRAST 
The height adjustable NA. 1.25 simple phase contrast condenser has a free slot for either a slider for 10/S40x phase contrast objectives OR a slider for 20/S100x phase contrast objectives. The condenser has an iris diaphragm and filter holder. The condenser includes a BF position for brightfield contrast with an iris diaphragm and filter holder. Phase contrast objectives in either EPL-PHi or PL-PHi version. Supplied with alignment telescope and green filter

POLARIZATION
The bScope® has an integrated slot above the nosepiece for an optional polarization filter

FLUORESCENCE ATTACHMENT
•  Epi-illumination with four LEDs for fluorescence excitation from 460 to 470 nm (blue), 520 to 530 nm (green), 390 to 400 (violet) and 360 to 370 nm (ultraviolet). External 100-240 V power supply

•  Epi-illumination with 100 W HBO mercury vapor lamp. External 110 or 230 V power supply

All fluorescence attachments are equipped with dichroic mirrors and routine fluorescence filters for blue, green, violet and ultra-violet excitation

NEOLED™ TRANSMITTED ILLUMINATION
The 3 W adjustable Köhler NeoLED™ transmitted illumination is powered by an internal 100-240 V power supply making it suitable for worldwide use. The innovative NeoLED™ design offers larger apertures, allowing the optical system of the bScope® microscope to produce images at higher resolutions, very close to the theoretical diffraction limit of the optics. Other benefits of the NeoLEDTM is the low energy consumption, no heating and a long operating lifetime

KÖHLER ILLUMINATION
A Köhler illumination ensures for all infinity corrected IOS models the highest possible contrast and the maximum achievable resolving power. Generates a uniform illumination of the sample and eliminates all interference from dust on lenses and side glare of the light source

CORDLESS USE
The optional rechargeable batteries turn the bScope® into a cordless system for transmitted illumination

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

CARRYING GRIP
The integrated carrying grip at the back of the microscope ensures safe transportation of the microscope

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

PACKAGE CONTENT  
Smart Styrofoam packaging ensures a low environmental footprint while maintaining maximum safety during transport. Supplied with power cord, dust cover, a spare fuse, white filter, user manual and 5 ml immersion oil
