AUC5-247-LCD Digital & Optical WIFI Biological Microscope
Auckland Scientific
AUC5-247-LCD Digital Biological Microscope
Infinity colour-corrected optics, a 22mm field of view and a super-large ceramic rackless stage with 8MP imaging, 4K video and flexible power options.
High-performance microscopy with flexible power
The AUC5-247-LCD is designed for university teaching, biomedical laboratories and medical testing. Its infinity colour-corrected optical system, plan achromatic objectives and 22mm wide-field eyepieces deliver high-resolution, high-contrast images across a broad observation area.
The integrated 13.3-inch display and Sony IMX678 camera capture 8MP images and 4K video and support measurement. A Type‑C power input permits operation from a suitable portable battery, while a standard USB output can charge a compatible phone or tablet.
Key features
Super-large ceramic stage
The 210 × 171mm double-layer stage has a rackless X-axis, hard ceramic-coated surface and two damped slide clips. It supports smooth movement, corrosion resistance and simultaneous placement of two slides for inspection or comparison.
Portable power and ECO mode
The Type‑C input enables operation from a suitable portable battery. After 30 minutes without operation, the built-in ECO system switches to standby; touching the illumination control wakes the light source.
Apple, Android and computer compatibility
The microscope operates independently through its integrated display. Compatible applications support wireless viewing on Apple and Android devices, with software environments for Windows, macOS and Linux computers.
Connection note: Mobile connectivity uses Wi‑Fi. A compatible 5GHz USB Wi‑Fi adapter may be required depending on the supplied configuration. Direct USB connection to an iPhone or iPad is not specified.
