Optika B-510POL-I Trinocular polarized light microscope, 500x, IOS LWD PLAN POL, Incident and Transmitted light
Optika B-510POL-I Trinocular polarized light microscope, 500x, IOS LWD PLAN POL, Incident and Transmitted light
€5.033,00 excl. VAT
The Optika B-510POL-I is a trinocular polarizing microscope for quantitative polarized light work in both incident and transmitted light. It carries IOS LWD W-PLAN POL objectives from 5x to 50x on a round, centrable, 360 degree rotating stage. A centerable and focusable Bertrand lens with a 360 degree rotatable analyzer supports conoscopic observation, and the microscope ships with lambda, lambda/4, and quartz wedge tint plates. The incident side adds an X-LED8 polarized light source alongside the X-LED3 transmitted path. It suits mineralogy and materials laboratories that examine both opaque ore sections and transparent thin sections.
Trinocular Polarizing Microscope for Incident and Transmitted Quantitative Polarized Light
The Optika B-510POL-I combines incident and transmitted quantitative polarized light on one stand, for laboratories examining both opaque ore or metal sections and transparent thin sections. The centerable and focusable Bertrand lens, rotatable analyzer, and included tint plates support both qualitative and quantitative polarized light analysis.
- Quantitative polarized light on both incident and transmitted paths
- IOS LWD W-PLAN POL objectives from 5x to 50x, anti-fungus treated
- Centerable and focusable Bertrand lens for conoscopic observation
- Lambda, lambda/4, and quartz wedge tint plates included
- Suited to mineralogy, petrography, and materials science laboratories
Optika B-510POL-I Trinocular Polarized Light Microscope
The Optika B-510POL-I is a trinocular polarizing microscope from the B-510 research series, built for quantitative polarized light observation in both incident and transmitted light.
IOS LWD W-PLAN POL objectives pair with a round, centrable, 360 degree rotating stage and a full polarized light attachment on each light path.
IOS LWD W-PLAN POL Objectives
The objective set covers 5x, 10x, 20x, and 50x, infinity corrected and anti-fungus treated with a 45 mm parfocal distance, giving 50x to 500x total magnification.
Incident Polarized Light with Bertrand Lens
The incident polarized light attachment includes a centerable and focusable Bertrand lens, a 360 degree rotatable analyzer, a polarizer, and centerable field and aperture diaphragms, powered by the X-LED8 source at 8 W with over 50000 hours lifetime. A beamsplitter combines the reflected and transmitted light paths.
Transmitted Light with Swing-out Polarizing Condenser
The swing-out / polarizing condenser, N.A. 0.2/0.9, works with X-LED3 illumination and full Kohler adjustment for transmitted quantitative polarized light observation.
Round Rotating Stage
The 145 mm round stage rotates a full 360 degrees, is centrable, and includes specimen clips with 0.1 mm vernier scale accuracy for precise angular positioning.
Ideal Applications
The B-510POL-I suits laboratories that examine both opaque and transparent birefringent specimens.
- Ore microscopy in reflected polarized light
- Petrography and mineral analysis in thin sections
- Materials science polarized light examination
- Combined incident and transmitted polarized light workflows
- Geology and metallurgy teaching and research
Choose the B-510POL-I when:
- You need quantitative polarized light on both incident and transmitted paths
- You examine both opaque ore sections and transparent thin sections
- You need conoscopic observation with a Bertrand lens
- You want a rotating stage with vernier scale accuracy
Optika Value Proposition
The Optika B-510POL-I combines IOS LWD W-PLAN POL optics with dual incident and transmitted polarized light attachments on a trinocular stand, backed by Optika 10-year mechanical and optical warranty.
