Model and Typology: The document describes the B-155 model, an educational
microscope designed for routine applications. It features a dye-cast frame for stability and ergonomic use, suitable for transmitted light observation.
Specifications: The microscope is monocular with a double layer stage and includes objectives of 4x, 10x, 40x, and 100x. It 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. The external power supply is 100/240Vac, 50/60Hz, with an output of 5Vdc 500mA.
Observation Modes: The microscope supports brightfield observation.
Focusing Mechanism: It includes a coaxial coarse and fine focusing mechanism with a graduated scale 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 Movement: The stage is a double layer with a mechanical sliding stage measuring 125x116mm, and an X-Y movement range of 76x30mm. It includes a specimen holder for one slide and a vernier scale on two axes with an accuracy of 0.1mm.
Nosepiece and Head: The microscope has a quadruple revolving nosepiece with rotation on ball bearings. The monocular observation head is inclined at 30° and rotatable 360°.
Eyepieces and Objectives: It includes widefield eyepieces WF10X/18 with a field number of 18mm. The achromatic objectives have a mechanical tube length of 160mm and are treated with an anti-fungus treatment. The objectives include 4X, 10X, 40X, and 100X (oil immersion) with varying numerical apertures and working distances.
Condenser: The microscope features an Abbe condenser with a numerical aperture of 1.2, which is precentered.
Dimensions and Weight: The microscope measures 350mm in height, 170mm in width, and 210mm in depth, with a weight of 4kg.
Accessories: An instruction manual and dust cover are included.
