Model Overview: The OPTIKA B-150POL-MR is an educational polarizing
microscope designed for routine applications. It features a monocular head with a rotatable stage and is equipped with achromatic objectives (4x, 10x, 40x) treated with anti-fungus treatment.
Illumination: The microscope uses a white LED light source with a power of 1W and a color temperature of 6300K. The LED has an average lifetime of approximately 50,000 hours. Light intensity is adjustable via a knob on the left side of the frame. It operates with an external power supply (100/240Vac, 50/60Hz, output: 6Vdc 2.5A) and includes an internal NiMH rechargeable battery that provides up to 15 hours of use at medium intensity.
Observation Modes: The microscope supports brightfield and polarization observation modes, featuring a rotatable swing-out polarizer filter and a slide-out analyzer filter.
Focusing Mechanism: It includes a coaxial coarse and fine focusing mechanism with a graduation of 0.002mm and an upper stop to prevent contact between the objective and specimen. The tension of the coarse focusing knob is adjustable.
Stage and Nosepiece: The stage is rotatable with a diameter of 120mm. The nosepiece is a quadruple revolving type, rotating on ball bearings.
Head and Eyepieces: The monocular observation head is inclined at 30° and rotatable 360°. It comes with widefield eyepieces WF10X/18 with a field number of 18mm.
Condenser: The microscope is equipped with an Abbe condenser with a numerical aperture of 1.2, which is precentered.
Physical Specifications: The dimensions are 350mm in height, 170mm in width, and 210mm in depth, with a weight of 4 kg.
Accessories: The microscope includes an instruction manual and a dust cover.
Additional Information: The microscope is constructed with a die-cast frame for high stability and ergonomics, suitable for transmitted light observation. It is manufactured by OPTIKA Microscopes Italy.
