Microscopes

A high quality binocular microscope designed to meet the needs of the more advanced biology student at an economical price. Combines excellent optical performance and a robust, reliable ergonomic design. Anti-tamper safety features include locked on stage clips, slip clutch on the coarse focusing movement and an adjustable focus stop.

Ideal for GCSE biology studies at all levels, this new series of cordless microscopes incorporates innovative LED illumination technology into a proven microscope design, which features all the essential ‘Anti-Tamper’ features demanded by heavy school use. The microscope features a powerful rechargeable battery, located in the base, which is charged in situ with the mains power supply supplied. Charging time is typically 5-6 hours and when fully charged, the continuous discharge time is more than 50 hours. Under normal use, the LED bulb can last for more than 10,000 hours. The level of illumination is suitable even for high-power oil immersion work at x1000.

Another purpose built student microscope, similar to model P-3A but physically larger in size and featuring both coarse and fine focusing mechanisms. Anti-tamper safety features include locked-on eyepiece and stage slips, slip-clutch on the focusing movements to prevent over-focusing and a focus-stop to prevent damage to glass microslides and objective lenses. Recommended for use up to GCSE standard.

A high quality instrument of robust, reliable metal construction and excellent optical performance. Highly recommended for Primary Science Education and Field Study Centres (officially approved by the Royal Microscopical Society for use in primary schools). Extremely simple to use, the PM-1 is ideal for the examination of everyday objects in fascinating yet understandable detail. The anti-tamper student proof design includes locked-on eyepiece & stage clips and a slip clutch on the focus movement. Also an extremely useful routine inspection microscope for use in industrial applications.

The Zenith SCM-200 Junior Microscope is a compact instrument of die-cast construction and very good optical performance designed for Primary and Middle School use. Features monocular head inclined at 45 degrees for convenient viewing and a non tilting stage. Anti-tamper safety features include locked on eyepiece, stage clips and mirror and a focus-stop to prevent damage to glass microslides and objective lenses.

The ST-400 is a versatile, full-sized stereoscopic microscope of sturdy construction, offering excellent optical performance and reliable mechanical operation. Supplied with two pairs of eyepieces (x10 & x25) and two objective pairs (x2 & x4) on a revolving turret. Four magnifications (x20, x40, x50 & x100) are available with the standard optics supplied, but more magnifications are achievable with the optional eyepieces and supplementary lenses available separately. The microscope features a dual-illumination system comprising halogen top-lighting (incident) and fluorescent substage illumination (transmitted).
