Description
Microscope head
Binocular head with infinity-corrected optics. Eyepiece tubes rotate 360°. The user can adjust the eye relief on the eyepiece to fit their height.
The kit includes 10x/20mm eyepieces with long eye relief. Flat rubber eyecups without protruding parts protect the optics from scratches.
Diopter adjustment is done directly on the microscope: Diopter adjustment rings are located on both eyepiece tubes.
Digital camera
The digital camera is built into the microscope head.
The camera is equipped with an 8MP sensor and delivers realistic images in 4K resolution (3840x2160px) with the clearly visible fine details of samples and their structures. The best images are produced using 4x and 10x objectives.
Wi-Fi is used to connect to a computer and transfer data to it. The camera is suitable for photographing samples, fine-tuning the focus of the microscope, and video recording of static or slightly moving objects.
Revolving nosepiece
The coded revolver for 4 objectives is oriented toward the interior: The user can see the objective inserted into the optical path, and the space above the stage is free.
Maintaining comfortable brightness levels when switching magnifications
The objectives of different magnifications transmit light with different levels of intensity, and so each time you change objectives, the brightness of the light must be adjusted. In addition, brightness sharply increases when switching from a higher magnification objective to a lower magnification one. A sharp increase in brightness causes eye fatigue. MAGUS Bio DH240 is equipped with intelligent brightness control. The microscope remembers the brightness for each objective that the user has selected and automatically sets this brightness when turning the nosepiece. Intelligent control reduces the time required to adjust brightness. MAGUS Bio DH240 increases user comfort and saves time even when work requires frequent magnification changes.
Focusing mechanism
Coaxial coarse and fine focusing knobs are located at the base of the microscope on both sides. The user can place their hands on the table and take a relaxed pose while observing. The focus adjustment is smooth and effortless.
The coarse focus lock knob helps you quickly adjust the microscope after changing the subject of study. The knob is located on the left side of the microscope on the same axis as the focusing mechanism.
The ring on the right side adjusts the tension of the coarse focusing travel. The user adjusts the comfortable tension for work.
Stage
To ensure the ergonomic operation of the stage, it does not have an X-axis positioning rack. The belt-driven mechanism allows for the smooth movement of the specimen. The specimen holder is secured with two screws and can be easily removed during manual scanning.
Abbe condenser
An Abbe immersion condenser with N.A. 1.25 is fixed with two screws under the stage. The height of the condenser position is set at the factory and does not require adjustment by the user; the condenser is centered relative to the optical axis. Locking the condenser position eliminates the risk of accidentally changing the correct setup. The pre-configured condenser makes it easier for students to operate the microscope and free up more time for science.
The condenser knob adjusts the iris aperture diaphragm. Color marking corresponds to objective magnification. To achieve a contrast image on each objective, it is recommended to set the aperture adjustment knob to a position that corresponds to the number designation of the objective.
Illumination
The transmitted light illuminator contains a 3W LED. The microscope illuminator has the function of adjusting the color temperature in the range from 3000 to 7000K. The user selects a color temperature that is comfortable for the eyes and easily changes it with one button when, for example, examining an object requires a change in light.
The LED has a lifespan of 50,000 hours.
LCD status screen
The LCD screen on the base of the microscope displays the objective magnification, brightness, and color temperature of the light source as well as the operating mode (“sleep” and “eco”).
Using the screen and two knobs, the microscope user adjusts the brightness, selects the color temperature, locks brightness adjustment, and sets the sleep mode and the auto-off timer.
Ergonomic design
The sides of the “window” in the stand form handles for carrying the microscope with two hands. The design for the hidden placement of the power adapter and power cord improves the workplace esthetic and safety of carrying the microscope as well as simplifies storage of the device.
