Large-Format Temperature Control
An ultra-large heated platform for flexible stereo microscopy
The AUC-340-HS is an ultra-large transparent constant-temperature heating stage designed for use with a wide range of stereo microscopes. Its extended platform can be positioned over compatible microscope bases, providing a substantially larger working area than conventional microscope heating plates.
Four rotating support feet allow the stage height to be adjusted between 70 and 110mm. This provides greater flexibility when working with different microscope bases, transmitted illuminators and experimental arrangements.
The integrated optical heating surface provides a large 394 × 169mm transparent area with more than 95% light transmission. A defined 330 × 130mm active heating zone delivers controlled heating across the central specimen area.
Temperature can be adjusted from ambient temperature up to 60°C, with central-area accuracy of ±0.1°C. The system is suitable for maintaining Petri-dish samples at approximately 37°C during the observation of cells, embryos and other temperature-sensitive specimens.
Ultra-Large Observation Platform
More space for demanding experimental arrangements
The 435 × 220mm platform provides a generous working surface with a 394 × 169mm transparent region. Its large-format construction is ideal where additional space is required for Petri dishes, specimen containers or more complex experimental setups.
394 × 169mm
Transparent observation area
70–110mm
Height adjustment range
Adjustable Support Feet
Adapt the platform to different microscope configurations
Each support foot can be rotated to adjust the working height. This allows the heating stage to bridge compatible stereo microscope bases while positioning the transparent heated surface at a suitable observation height.
Key Performance
Large, accurate and adaptable
60°C
Maximum Temperature
Adjustable from ambient temperature up to 60°C for a broad range of laboratory applications.
±0.1°C
Central-Area Accuracy
High-precision sensing supports stable and reliable temperature regulation.
>95%
Light Transmission
The high-transparency surface preserves a clear and unobstructed transmitted-light path.
60W
Rated Power
Efficient heating performance despite the system’s large transparent working surface.
Features
Designed for large-scale temperature-controlled observation
Ultra-Large Transparent Area
A 394 × 169mm transparent surface accommodates larger experimental arrangements and specimen containers.
Adjustable Support Feet
Rotating feet provide a height adjustment range of 70–110mm for different microscope configurations.
Uniform Heating

Please confirm microscope compatibility before ordering
The AUC-340-HS is a large-format platform. Microscope base dimensions, stand design, illumination position and available working distance should therefore be checked before ordering. Please provide Auckland Scientific with the make and model of your microscope so suitability can be confirmed.
Need help selecting the correct heating stage?
Auckland Scientific can help compare the available heating-stage models and confirm whether the AUC-340-HS is suitable for your microscope, specimen arrangement and operating-temperature requirements.
Stereo microscope, microscope stand, Petri dishes and specimens shown in application images are not included. Images are for illustration purposes, and the appearance of the supplied product may differ slightly. Specifications may be subject to improvement without prior notice.
