The IN480T-FL provides high-resolution optics and a versatile dual-illumination system with Koehler transmitted lighting for brightfield and phase-Contrast, and wide-spectrum episcopic lighting for fluorescence. The stable and ergonomic inverted form accommodates larger specimen containers, with multiple specimen templates and mechanical stage controls to improve workflow.
The viewing head has a 45 incline and Siedentopf interpupillary adjustment for flexibility and comfort. The trinocular format provides a dedicated photo-port for mounting a microscopy camera for capturing photos or videos. A sliding shutter isolates the light path when using a camera, avoiding stray light from the oculars during fluorescence imaging.
The infinity-Corrected optical system eliminates optical errors when using filters and other in-line components, ensuring highly-precise images. Five brightfield objective lenses and two sets of eyepieces provide a wide magnification range from 40X to 1500X, with plan-achromatic corrections for high resolution, accurate colors, and edge-to-edge sharpness. Additionally, three phase-ring equipped objective lenses can be used for phase-Contrast observation.
A 100W mercury-vapor episcopic illuminator provides wide-spectrum lighting for fluorescence excitation. Two filter blocks can be mounted and alternated during observation. Blue and green excitation blocks are included to cover a wide range of common fluorophores.
The Koehler transmitted illumination system consists of a centerable 30W halogen lamp, a field lens with iris, and a centerable, height-adjustable condenser with iris. The ability to center the lamp and condenser, along with the field and aperture diaphragms, allow for highly-efficient, optimized illumination for maximum resolution. Along with height adjustment, the condenser can be swung out of the light path. A slide-in annulus board provides two centerable phase-Contrast annuli, as well as an open setting which can be used with colored filters for band-isolation or color-correction.
The 1.4MP monochrome CCD camera provides extremely high sensitivity with active cooling system capable of reducing the internal temperature to 40C below ambient. The camera captures still images and video, and allows you to view a live stream on your PC. The interline CCD design uses Global-Shutter capture which eliminates artifacts associated with rolling-shutter sensors. With software accessible for Windows, Mac, and Linux, it's a multi-platform imaging solution. The included Windows software offers image-development and measurement tools, as well as advanced compositing features such as image-stitching and extended-depth-of-Focus. for Mac and Linux, there is a lite version with limited processing features.
This microscope operates on 90-240V wide-band voltage for use in multiple international regions.
