Trinocular Microscope BS.1153-EPLi

Euromex bScope Microscope

bScope microscopes have been designed for intensive use in research in secondary schools, universities, small laboratories and veterinary applications. In addition to an excellent ergonomic design, these robust and competitively priced microscopes are available in several configurations with HWF10x/20 mm eyepieces and objectives for brightfield and phase contrast.
An ergonomic and flexible design, with features such as eyepieces with two viewing heights, low-position focus knobs and stage controls, and an LED illumination system, helps to minimise fatigue during long working sessions and so provides greater comfort for microscopists. The compact size of the bScope and its power cable storage system allow more workspace, safer transport and easy storage.

Technical specifications of the bScope Microscope

EYEPIECE(S)
HWF 10x / 20 mm wide-field eyepieces. Can be locked in place. On monocular models the eyepiece is supplied with a pointer

HEAD
• The bScope is equipped with a monocular head (inclined at 45° and with an eyepiece tube of Ø 23.2 mm) or a Siedentopf-type head, rotatable through 360°, inclined at 30° and with eyepiece tubes of Ø 23.2 mm
• Binocular and trinocular models are equipped with a ± 5 dioptre adjustment on the left eyepiece tube
• The interpupillary distance is adjustable from 48 to 76 mm• The trinocular head comes with a Ø 23.2 mm documentation port, which ensures maximum flexibility. The internal prisms of the head are designed to minimise light absorption and obtain perfect digital images
• Ergonomic butterfly-type head rotation system that allows two viewing positions: high (431 mm) and low (377 mm). Only for IOS models
• On page 4 you will find the technical details for models with an integrated camera

OBJECTIVE NOSEPIECE
Quadruple or quintuple inward-facing nosepiece mounted on high-precision ball bearings

OBJECTIVES
The latest-generation production techniques and multilayer coatings used in the manufacture of the bScope objectives make it possible to use the bScope for the most demanding applications. Correction of spherical aberration and modern CNC and assembly technology ensure perfect centring of the objectives
• Brightfield models: E-Plan, Plan, infinity-corrected E-plan (IOS) and infinity-corrected Plan (IOS) achromatic plan objectives. Magnifications 4x / 0.10, 10x / 0.25, 20x / 0.40, S40x / 0.65, S60x / 0.85 and S100x / 1.25 (oil immersion)
• Phase contrast models: E-plan achromatic plan phase objectives, infinity-corrected E-plan Phase (IOS) and infinity-corrected Plan phase (IOS) objectives. Magnifications 10x / 0.25, 20x / 0.40, S40x / 0.65 and S100x / 1.25 (oil immersion) The S40x, S60x and S100x objectives are retractable. All optics are coated with an anti-fungal and anti-reflective treatment to obtain maximum light performance

FOCUSING
Coaxial coarse and fine focus knobs in a low position. Fine focus with 180 divisions. Precision 1.11 μm, 200 μm per rotation, total travel of approximately 19 mm. Supplied with an adjustable stage elevation stop to prevent damage to the specimen and the objectives. The coarse focus is equipped with tension adjustment

STAGE
The bScope is equipped with a scratch-resistant 152/197 x 131 mm stage with an integrated rackless mechanical stage on the X axis and X-Y travel of 75 x 36 mm, with vernier, and a soft-closing, removable specimen holder. The rackless stage on the X axis has no protruding parts, allows smoother movements and is safer to use. The low-position X-Y control knobs prevent fatigue during long working sessions.
The bScope can be fitted with an optional heating stage up to 50 °Celsius by means of a PID temperature controller. Only available for new microscope units

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

ZERNIKE CONDENSER FOR PHASE CONTRAST
The Zernike condenser for phase contrast is height-adjustable. It consists of an N.A. 1.25 condenser, 10-20x / 40x and 100x phase rings, an iris diaphragm, a swing-out filter holder and also a BF position for brightfield observation. Optional phase contrast objectives in EPL-PH, EPL-PHi or PL-PHi versions. Supplied with a telescopic eyepiece for phase alignment and a green filter

SLIDER CONDENSER FOR PHASE CONTRAST
Height-adjustable N.A. 1.25 condenser with a slot for phase contrast sliders. The condenser has an iris diaphragm and a filter holder. Sliders with 10x/40x or 20x/100x phase rings. Optional phase contrast objectives in EPL-PH, EPL-PHi or PL-PHi versions. Supplied with a telescopic eyepiece for phase alignment and a green filter

POLARISATION
The bScope has an integrated slot above the nosepiece for an optional polarising filter

ILLUMINATION
bScope microscopes are equipped with a NeoLED 3W illumination system with adjustable intensity. Integrated 100-240 VAC power supply. Optional rechargeable battery kit

KÖHLER ILLUMINATION
For all bScope models with infinity-corrected objectives (IOS) the illumination system is Köhler NeoLED 3W. The Köhler system provides the highest possible contrast and the maximum achievable resolving power. It produces uniform illumination of the specimen and eliminates all interference from dust on the lenses and stray light from the light source
Köhler illumination is optional for non-IOS models

CORDLESS USE
The optional rechargeable batteries turn the bScope into a cordless instrument

CSS - CABLE STORAGE SYSTEM
Allows users to easily store excess cable length at the back of the instrument during operation and to wind up the power cable for easy storage

CARRYING HANDLE
The carrying handle integrated into the back of the microscope ensures safe transport of the microscope

ANTI-THEFT SLOT
At the back of the microscope there is a Kensington Security Slot, which can be used to protect the instrument from theft

WHAT'S INCLUDED
The Smart Styrofoam packaging has a low environmental footprint while maintaining maximum safety during transport. Supplied with power cable, dust cover, tools, spare fuse, white filter, user manual and 5 ml immersion oil. Phase contrast models are supplied with a green filter and a telescopic eyepiece for phase alignment. An optional aluminium case can be supplied
