AUC-293 Series Trinocular Inverted Biological Microscopes
Advanced brightfield and phase-contrast microscopy with an optional LED fluorescence configuration
The AUC-293 Series is designed for the observation of cultured living cells, tissues and microorganisms. Both configurations combine an infinity optical system, long-working-distance plan objectives, a large mechanical stage and comfortable trinocular viewing. Select the AUC-293A-I for transmitted-light brightfield and phase contrast, or the AUC-293AFLED-I to add efficient two-channel B/G LED fluorescence.
Select your required illumination configuration above. Prices are displayed separately for each Shopify variant. Delivery, installation and training are quoted separately where required.

Stage and focusing
- Stage size: 210 x 241mm with 110mm round insert opening.
- Attachable mechanical stage with coaxial X-Y control and 128 x 80mm movement.
- Suitable for 96-well plates.
- Supplied 54mm culture-dish holder.
- Coaxial coarse and fine focus with 0.002mm fine division and 10mm movement range.
- 10x phase annulus plate and combined 20x/40x phase annulus plate supplied.
- 30mm centring telescope supplied.
AUC-293AFLED-I fluorescence system
The AFLED configuration adds a two-channel fluorescence module with synchronised 5W LED sources and blue/green filter selection. LED fluorescence provides immediate, stable output, low heat and reduced maintenance without a mercury lamp. The specified fluorescence brightness is more than twice that of the four-channel LED fluorescence module.
Applications
Suitable for cell and tissue culture, live-cell observation, cytology, microbiology, oncology, immunology, genetic research, botany, pharmaceutical research and other laboratory applications requiring long-working-distance brightfield, phase contrast or LED fluorescence.
Three-year Auckland Scientific microscope warranty
Both variants are supplied with a three-year Auckland Scientific microscope warranty, subject to the microscope receiving an annual service. Full warranty terms are available on request.
