High-Performance Optical ComponentsThe microscope comes equipped with DIN standard achromatic objectives (4x, 10x, 40x, 100x oil), providing sharp, clear images up to 1000x magnification. Wide Field 10x eyepieces support comfortable and expansive viewing. All optical surfaces are treated for anti-fungal protection, essential for durability in humid environments.
Robust Design & User-Friendly FeaturesConstructed from die-cast metal with an anti-rust finish, the STAR PLUS-2M features a stable, wide base and anti-slip feet, ensuring secure placement on laboratory benches. The inclined monocular head (45) and coaxial stage controls facilitate comfortable and precise operation during routine and advanced observations.
Versatile Illumination and Power OptionsLED or tungsten halogen lighting delivers adjustable, bright illumination adapted for diverse sample types, with a built-in transformer for 220V/110V power supply. The system ensures students and professionals can perform high-resolution observations in various educational or lab settings.
FAQ's of STAR PLUS-2M PATHOLOGICAL MONOCULAR MICROSCOPE:
Q: How do I adjust the magnification on the STAR PLUS-2M microscope?
A: The microscope is equipped with a quadruple revolving nosepiece that holds four DIN standard achromatic objectives (4x, 10x, 40x, 100x oil immersion). To change magnification, rotate the nosepiece until the desired objective clicks into position. Combine this with the wide field 10x eyepiece to achieve total magnifications from 40x to 1000x.
Q: What is the process for achieving precise focus on specimens?
A: Begin focusing with the coarse adjustment knob to bring your specimen into general clarity. Then, use the fine adjustment knob-graduated to 0.002 mm increments-for sharp, detailed focusing. The standard focal length is 45 mm, supporting both quick scanning and detailed examination.
Q: When should I use the oil immersion lens (100x objective)?
A: The oil immersion objective (100x) should be used when you need to observe very fine structures, such as microorganisms or detailed cell morphology. Apply a drop of immersion oil on the slide cover slip before rotating the 100x objective into place for maximum resolution.
Q: Where is the STAR PLUS-2M microscope most suitable for usage?
A: This microscope is ideal for schools, colleges, pathological laboratories, and educational institutes. Its sturdy build and easy operation make it suitable for student, educator, and lab technician use, in both academic and clinical environments.
Q: What maintenance practices are recommended for this microscope?
A: Keep all optical components clean and covered with the included dust cover when not in use. Replace bulbs, fuses, or eyepieces as needed, and ensure the anti-fungal treatment is preserved by storing the microscope in a dry place. Regularly check the mechanical stage and focusing system for smooth operation.
Q: How does the anti-fungal treatment benefit optical performance?
A: The anti-fungal coatings on all optical surfaces protect lenses and prisms from fungal growth, a common issue in humid environments. This ensures consistently sharp and clear images over the lifespan of the microscope.
