OBJECTIVES - 45 MM PARFOCAL
The state-of-the-art production techniques and multi layer coatings used for the manufacturing of the bScope objectives enables the bScope to be used for the most demanding applications. World class spherical aberration correction and modern CNC and assembly technology ensure the perfect centering of the objectives

• Brightfield models: E-Plan, E-plan IOS infinity corrected, Plan IOS infinity corrected 4x/0.10, 10x/0.25, 20x/0.40, S40x/0.65 and S100x/1.25 oil immersion objectives. Optional 60x/0.85 objective
• Phase contrast models: Plan Phase IOS infinity corrected 10x/0.25, 20x/0.40, S40x/0.65 and S100x/1.25 oil immersion objectives
• Dark field conrast model: E-Plan finity corrected 4x/0.10, 10x/0.25, 20x/0.40, S40x/0.65 and S100x/1.25 oil immersion objectives. The S100x objective is equipped with a built-in iris diaphragm. Optional 60x/0.85 objective

All S40x, S60x and S100x oil immersion objectives are spring loaded. All optics are anti-fungus treated and anti-reflection coated for maximum light throughput

FOCUSING
Double coaxial, low-positioned coarse and fine adjustments with 180 graduations. Precision 1.11 µm, 200 µm per rotation, total travel approximately 19 mm. Supplied with an adjustable rack stop to prevent damage to sample and objectives. The coarse adjustment is equipped with friction control

STAGE

• The bScope is equipped with a scratch resistant 152/197 x 131 mm stage with integrated 75 x 36 mm X-Y rackless mechanical stage, Vernier scale, soft-close removable specimen holder
• The rackless stage has no protruding parts, enables more smooth movements and is safer in use. Low-positioned X-Y control knobs prevent fatique during long working sessions. The bScope can be equipped with a heating stage which can be set up to 50° Celsius by a PID temperature controller. Only available with newly purchased microscopes

CONDENSER FOR BRIGHTFIELD
The standard in height adjustable Abbe N.A. 1.25 condenser for brightfield comes with an iris diaphragm and swing-out filter holder. The condenser is color coded. Optionally available swing-out Abbe condenser (BS.9105)

ZERNIKE CONDENSER FOR PHASE CONTRAST 
The in height adjustable Zernike NA. 1.25 phase contrast disc condenser comes with phase annuli for 10/20/S40x and S100x phase contrast objectives, an iris diaphragm, a swing-out filter holder and also a BF position for brightfield contrast. Phase contrast objectives in PLPHi phase contrast versions. Supplied with alignment telescope and green filter

CONDENSER WITH SLIDER(S) FOR  PHASE CONTRAST 
The in height adjustable NA. 1.25 simple phase contrast condenser has a free slot for either a slider for 10/S40x phase contrast objectives OR a slider for 20/S100x phase contrast objectives. The condenser has an iris diaphragm and filter holder. The condenser also includes a BF position for brightfield contrast. Phase contrast objectives in PLPHi versions. Supplied with alignment telescope and green filter

CONDENSER FOR DARKFIELD
A state-of-the-art condenser equipped with reflective cardioid mirrors, with an integrated high powered 3 W LED light source. Together with a S100x objective with built-in iris diaphragm this forms a 1000x magnification darkfield solution. The power supply of the 5 W LED light source is built in the microscope. The darkfield condenser can easily be exchanged for a brightfield condenser which is also included

DARKFIELD EQUIPMENT
The BS.1153-EPL/DF is equipped with a darkfield oil immersion cardioïd mirror condenser with a integrated 3 W LED illumination and a plan PL S100x oil immersion objective with built-in iris

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

ILLUMINATION

The microscopes of the bScope are equipped with a 3 W NeoLED adjustable illumination system for increased light output and a 100-240 Vac integrated power supply. On request, rechargeable batteries are also available

NEOLED™ ILLUMINATION
The 3 W adjustable Köhler NeoLED diascopic illumination is powered by an internal 100-240 V power supply making it suitable for worldwide use.The innovative NeoLED design offers larger apertures, allowing the optical system of the bScope microscope to produce images at higher resolutions, very close to the theoretical diffraction limit of the optics. Other benefits of the NeoLED is the low energy consumption, no heating and a long operating lifetime

KÖHLER ILLUMINATION
A Köhler illumination ensures for all infinity corrected IOS models the highest possible contrast and the maximum achievable resolving power. It generates a uniform illumination of the sample and eliminates all interference from dust on lenses and side glare of the light source

The Köhler illumination is optional for non-IOS models
