Clear, Comfortable and Dependable Routine Microscopy
The AUC-240 Series comprises classically styled biological microscopes combining an ergonomic stand with a high-definition infinity optical system. Supplied with infinity plan achromatic objectives, these microscopes produce sharp, flat images across the field of view while supporting comfortable and efficient routine observation.
Both configurations feature extra-wide-field EW10X/20mm eyepieces, a precision mechanical stage, a sliding-in centreable Abbe condenser and adjustable 3W LED transmitted illumination. The convenient integrated carrying handle also makes the microscope easier to reposition safely within a laboratory or teaching environment.
Available Configurations
| Model | Viewing Head | Supplied Configuration |
|---|---|---|
| AUC-240B | Binocular | EW10X/20mm eyepieces, 4X, 10X, 40X and 100X infinity plan achromatic objectives, quadruple nosepiece, mechanical stage, Abbe condenser and adjustable 3W LED illumination. |
| AUC-240T | Trinocular | EW10X/20mm eyepieces, 4X, 10X, 40X and 100X infinity plan achromatic objectives, quadruple nosepiece, mechanical stage, Abbe condenser and adjustable 3W LED illumination. |
Choose the AUC-240B for conventional binocular observation or the AUC-240T when a trinocular photo port is required for compatible camera integration.
