Optika B-383LD Trinocular LED fluorescence microscope, 1000x, IOS PLAN, B filter set
€2.067,00 excl. VAT
The Optika B-383LD is a trinocular LED fluorescence microscope for laboratories that want fluorescence without the warm-up time and lamp replacement of mercury sources. It combines IOS N-PLAN objectives from 4x to 100x oil with a high-power blue LED epi-fluorescence source. The single position filter holder ships with a blue filter set for fluorochromes such as FITC, GFP, and Acridine Orange. X-LED3 covers transmitted brightfield illumination. It suits routine fluorescence screening where convenience and lower running cost matter.
Trinocular LED Fluorescence Microscope for Routine Screening
The Optika B-383LD replaces mercury lamp fluorescence with a high-power blue LED source, removing warm-up and cool-down delays and mercury bulb replacement. IOS N-PLAN objectives cover brightfield observation from 4x to 100x oil, and the LED delivers over 65000 hours of service life.
- High-power blue LED epi-fluorescence source, over 65000 hours lifetime
- Blue filter set included for FITC, GFP, and Acridine Orange type fluorochromes
- No warm-up or cool-down time compared to mercury lamp fluorescence
- IOS N-PLAN objectives from 4x to 100x oil for brightfield
- Suited to routine fluorescence screening in laboratory and teaching settings
Optika B-383LD Trinocular LED Fluorescence Microscope
The Optika B-383LD is a trinocular fluorescence microscope from the B-380 series, built around a high-power blue LED epi-fluorescence source rather than a traditional mercury lamp.
IOS N-PLAN brightfield objectives from 4x to 100x oil share the stand with the LED fluorescence attachment, so users move between brightfield and fluorescence on one microscope.
Blue LED Fluorescence Without Warm-Up Delays
The extremely powerful LED fluorescence illuminator eliminates the warm-up and cool-down times of mercury lamps and removes the inconvenience of lamp replacement and centering, while running for over 65000 hours.
Blue Filter Set for Common Fluorochromes
The single position blue filter set (excitation 460-495 nm, dichroic 505 nm, emission 510LP nm) supports fluorochromes such as Acridine Yellow, Acridine Orange, Auramine, DiO, DTAF, FITC, GFP, and YFP.
IOS N-PLAN Objectives for Brightfield
The objective set covers 4x, 10x, 20x, 40x, and 100x oil/water immersion, all anti-fungus treated for reliable long-term use.
Trinocular Head for Documentation
The trinocular head adds a camera port for photographic or digital documentation of fluorescence images alongside visual observation.
Ideal Applications
The B-383LD suits laboratories that want convenient, low-maintenance fluorescence.
- Routine fluorescence screening
- Educational and university fluorescence teaching
- FITC, GFP, and Acridine Orange based staining protocols
- Combined brightfield and fluorescence workflows
- Laboratories that want to avoid mercury lamp maintenance
Choose the B-383LD when:
- You want fluorescence without lamp warm-up or replacement
- You work primarily with blue-excited fluorochromes
- You need brightfield and fluorescence on one entry-level stand
- You want lower running costs than mercury lamp fluorescence
Optika Value Proposition
The Optika B-383LD combines LED fluorescence convenience with IOS N-PLAN brightfield optics on a trinocular stand, backed by Optika 10-year mechanical and optical warranty plus lifetime X-LED warranty.
