Why is the Scopium XSP-151T-LED biological microscope so popular with our customers? It offers reliable optical and mechanical quality at an affordable price and can be expanded with a wide range of accessories. The instrument is constructed almost entirely from metal and glass components.
Excellent optics
The microscope is equipped with 4x, 10x, 40x and 100x achromatic semi-plan objectives, delivering sharp, highly detailed images across almost the entire field of view. Thanks to their DIN-standard mounting, they can easily be replaced with objectives of different magnifications. The spring-loaded design of the 40x and 100x objectives helps protect both the slide and the objective from accidental impacts and damage. The 100x objective is oil immersion, so immersion oil is required for use.
The Scopium XSP-151T-LED microscope includes a WF12.5x wide-field eyepiece, providing 50x, 125x, 500x and 1250x magnification. Additional magnification ranges can be achieved using other eyepieces. The 45° inclined, 360° rotating binocular viewing head ensures comfortable observation from any direction. The tube at the top of the viewing head is suitable for attaching cameras with a 23.2 mm diameter.
Modern LED illumination
Transmitted illumination is provided by a 1 W variable-intensity LED light, which is superior to conventional halogen lighting in every respect. Its light has a slightly bluish tint and provides more even illumination. It generates less heat and consumes less energy. The N.A.=1.25 Abbe condenser helps achieve optimal illumination, while the iris diaphragm allows even more precise adjustment (see Köhler illumination).
Precision mechanics
The Scopium XSP-151T-LED biological microscope features coaxial coarse and fine focusing. With 0.01 mm increments on the graduated fine-focus control, sharp focus can be achieved quickly and precisely. The mechanical stage enables two-axis fine movement with 0.1 mm accuracy. This allows the specimen to be positioned precisely without manually moving the slide, helping to prevent accidental movement of the microscope.
The basic package also includes yellow, green and blue filters, as well as a durable dust cover to protect the instrument when it is not in use.
