Optika B-510ERGO Binocular brightfield microscope, 1000x, IOS W-PLAN PLAN, with ERGO head
€1.659,00 excl. VAT
The Optika B-510ERGO is a binocular brightfield microscope with an ERGO head that adjusts through a variable 30 to 60 degree inclination for comfortable viewing at any bench height. It carries IOS W-PLAN objectives from 4x to 100x oil with full Kohler illumination. The rackless double layer stage and coaxial focusing keep long sessions comfortable. It suits laboratories where multiple users share the microscope or where extended observation time makes ergonomic positioning important.
Binocular Brightfield Microscope with Variable Inclination ERGO Head
The Optika B-510ERGO adds a variable inclination ERGO head, adjustable between 30 and 60 degrees, to the IOS W-PLAN brightfield platform. This lets each user set a comfortable viewing angle, which matters in laboratories with shared microscopes or long observation sessions.
- ERGO head with variable inclination from 30 to 60 degrees
- IOS W-PLAN objectives from 4x to 100x oil, anti-fungus treated
- Full Kohler illumination for sharp, contrasted images
- Rackless double layer stage with 78×54 mm moving range
- Suited to shared workstations and long observation sessions
Optika B-510ERGO Binocular Brightfield Microscope with ERGO Head
The Optika B-510ERGO is a binocular brightfield microscope from the B-510 research series, built around a variable inclination ERGO head for comfortable viewing across different users and bench heights.
IOS W-PLAN infinity-corrected objectives and full Kohler illumination give sharp, contrasted images for routine and research brightfield observation.
Variable Inclination ERGO Head
The Siedentopf ERGO head adjusts through 30 to 60 degrees of inclination, letting each user find a comfortable viewing angle without changing seating position.
IOS W-PLAN Objectives for Brightfield Work
The objective set covers 4x, 10x, 40x, and 100x oil immersion, infinity corrected and anti-fungus treated with a 45 mm parfocal distance.
Full Kohler Illumination
X-LED3 illumination with full Kohler adjustment delivers contrasted and sharp images through the swing-out condenser, N.A. 0.2/0.9.
Rackless Double Layer Stage
The 233×147 mm double layer mechanical stage moves on a rackless, belt-driven mechanism with a 78×54 mm X-Y moving range and 0.1 mm vernier scale accuracy.
Ideal Applications
The B-510ERGO suits laboratories where ergonomic comfort matters during observation.
- Shared workstations with multiple users
