Optika B-292LD1 Binocular LED Fluorescence Microscope

The Optika B-292LD1 is a binocular upright microscope built on the B-290 series infinity-corrected platform, equipped for both brightfield and LED fluorescence observation.

The system supports reflected-light fluorescence alongside standard transmitted brightfield, on the same die-cast aluminum body used across the B-290 series.

IOS N-PLAN / W-PLAN Optics

The B-292LD1 uses IOS N-PLAN/W-PLAN objectives at 10x, 20x, 40x, and 100x, giving 100x to 1000x total magnification through 10x/20 eyepieces.

• Quadruple reversed nosepiece on ball bearings
• Anti-fungus treated optics

LED Fluorescence with Blue Filterset

The B-292LD1 ships with a blue filterset for fluorescence observation on the same optical path used for brightfield work.

• Reflected-light fluorescence observation method
• Binocular Siedentopf head, 30 degrees inclined, 360 degrees rotating

Rackless Double-Layer Stage

The double-layer stage moves 75 x 33 mm on a belt-driven, rackless mechanism, with a vernier scale accurate to 0.1 mm on both axes.

• Anti-scratch painted surface
• Centerable Abbe condenser, N.A. 0.9/1.25

X-LED3 Transmitted Illumination

Transmitted light comes from a 3.6 W X-LED3 source with manual brightness control and a fixed color temperature of 6,300 K, rated at more than 65,000 hours of lifetime.

• External power supply, 100-240 Vac input, multi-plug EU/UK/US

Ideal Applications

The B-292LD1 suits laboratories combining routine transmitted-light work with fluorescence sample review.

• Combined brightfield and fluorescence teaching or research labs
• Laboratories with occasional fluorescence needs
• General biology work needing a single, dual-technique microscope
• Training environments introducing fluorescence microscopy

Choose the B-292LD1 when:

• You need brightfield and LED fluorescence on the same microscope
• You want the blue filterset included rather than purchased separately
• You need a binocular head rather than trinocular
• You want infinity-corrected optics for future accessory additions

Optika Value Proposition

Optika has manufactured educational and laboratory microscopes for more than 45 years and sells through dealers in more than 150 countries. The B-292LD1 carries the same X-LED3 illumination used across the Optika range, backed by a 10-year warranty on mechanical and optical parts and a lifetime warranty on the X-LED light source.
