AmScope T490 Series Phase-Contrast Simul-Focal Trinocular Compound Microscope 40X-2500X Magnification with 20W Halogen, 3D Mechanical Stage Sku: T490C-PCS Key Features
The T490-PCS ads phase-contrast to our hardest-working go-to
microscope. A top choice for veterinarians, breeders, and clinics, this
instrument has proven reliability and optical quality. It boasts features such
as a compensation-free Siedentopf head, smooth stage translation, and a
precision focus system with easy tension-adjustment and vertical-lock. The
simul-focal trinocular head provides a dedicated photo port which can be used
simultaneously with both eyepieces. Upgraded with a modular phase-contrast system,
new contrast-enhancement techniques are available for studying internal
cellular structures and composite materials. To customize the microscope to your viewing comfort, the eyepiece
spacing can be easily adjusted using a precision Siedentopf mechanism. A
diopter is available on the both ocular tubes to compensate for asymmetry, and
the ocular tubes are angled at 30° to comfortably accommodate a seated position
without neck strain. The 23mm photo port is height-adjustable to match focus
with the eyepieces, and can be replaced with an optional CX series C-mount port
which have built-in reduction, and can directly interface with C-mount cameras. The objective turret provides instant access to 4
magnification levels to easily focus in on minute details from 40X to 1000X.
Additional 25X eyepieces expand the maximum magnification to 2500X with 6
unique levels. This covers magnifications needed for studying hair follicles,
cells, and bacteria. These high-quality lenses are achromatically corrected to
improve resolution and color accuracy. The 2-layer mechanical stage provides smooth and precise movement
for examination of specimen slides. The stage's low-position controls are
conveniently placed near the coaxial focus knobs for a streamlined workflow.
Examining specimen slides is intuitive and precise for users at any skill
level. Halogen sub-stage lighting provides bright illumination with excellent
color rendering. The warm lighting is better suited for prolonged use, causing
less eyestrain than LED and fluorescent lighting. The Abbe light condenser has
a high 1.25 numerical aperture for oil-immersion, and an iris diaphragm to
optimize contrast and depth-of-field. The condenser holder uses rack-and-pinion
movement for precise height adjustment. A
phase-contrast kit is included, with three specialized objective
lenses (10X, 40X, 100X) and a modular light condenser. Phase contrast is used
to reveal detail in indistinct objects, such as unstained cells and
microorganisms that would otherwise appear invisible. By using a combination of
the specialized objective lenses and the modified light condenser, these
invisible objects can be visualized by manipulating variations in phase.
