The AUC-226 Series provides clear optical performance, straightforward operation and a compact ergonomic design for routine biological microscopy.
Available with monocular, binocular or trinocular viewing and a choice of finite achromatic or finite plan achromatic objectives, the AUC-226 can be configured for education, laboratory work, clinical observation and general biological applications.
A built-in rechargeable illumination module allows the microscope to be used where a mains power supply is unavailable or unreliable. It can also be powered using the supplied external power system.
