SZX16

Research Stereo Microscope System

SZX16 - A Wide Zoom Range

With a zoom range of 0.7x to 11.5x, users can observe fine details while maintaining a wide field of view without replacing objective lenses.

Choice of Suitable Contrast and Observation Method

SZX2-ILLTQ/SZX2-ILLTS

With a slim 41.5 mm design, that is approximately half the thickness of previous halogen lamp transmitted light illumination bases, new LED transmitted light illumination bases have a lower height to enable a low eyepoint and easy access to base-mounted samples during observation and operation.

The LED illumination base SZX2-ILLTQ with quad position turret enables the user to choose cartridges and to switch from brightfield (standard/high/low), oblique (standard/high/low), darkfield and polarized illumination.

Advanced Fluorescence Observation

The SZX16 is suitable as a fluorescence microscope for observing everything from whole organisms to nuclear detail, thanks to its precisely engineered optics and high NA. The advanced glass materials with low autofluorescence and new surface coatings greatly increase the transmission of light and consequently improve image clarity. Furthermore, these features result in an excellent S/N ratio and high fluorescence signal intensity. Full control of the excitation light is facilitated by the 5-position filter wheel, which enables flexible illumination for low-magnification, high-resolution imaging.

Double Objectives for 3.5x to 230x Zoom

With the parfocal objectives and two-position revolving nosepiece, switching between objectives is very quick and easy, requiring little refocusing. Therefore, with the 0.5x and 2.0x objectives, the uninterrupted magnification range is 3.5x -230x. This represents an effective zoom ratio of 65.7:1.

Ergonomic Observation Tube and Extendable Eyepoint Adjuster

The SZX2 series features observation tubes with an optimized convergence angle designed to enable users to make observations from a natural position that minimizes eye fatigue.

This solution effectively eliminates eyestrain during long periods of observation.
