ERGONOMIC TILTING HEAD (for IOS models only)
- Optional ergonomic 5 to 35° tilting head supplied with EWF 10x/22 mm eyepiece
- Interpupillary distance 48-75 mm
- Optional photo attachment for tiltinghead with standard Ø 23.2 mm tube
To order an iScope® with tilting head use reference IS.1158‑PLi/DF or IS.1158‑PLi/DFi.
To order an iScope® with tilting head and photo attachment use reference IS.1159‑PLi/DF or IS.1159‑PLi/DFi)
NOSEPIECE
Revolving quintuple reversed nosepiece for maximum five objectives
STAGES
The iScope® can be equipped with two types of stages (designed for 2 slides):
- 156 x 138 mm stage equipped with integrated 79 x 52 mm X-Y mechanical stage
- 187/230 x 140 mm rackless stage equipped with double slide holder and integrated 79 x 52 mm X-Y mechanical stage. The iScope® rackless stage has no protruding parts and therefore it is safer in use. Furthermore it enables more smooth movement
CONDENSER FOR DARKFIELD (STANDARD)
A state-of-the-art condenser equipped with reflective cardioid mirrors and a built-in high powered 5 W LED light source.
Together with a S100x objective with built-in iris diaphragm this enabels a 1000x magnification darkfield solution.
The power supply of the 5 W LED light source is built in the microscope. The darkfield condenser can easily be exchanged for a brightfield condenser which is also included
CONDENSER FOR BRIGHT FIELD
- Height adjustable Abbe N.A. 1.25 condenser for brightfield
- Accepts sliders with phase annuli suitable for plan phase 10x/20x or S40x/ S100x oil immersion IOS objectives for economical phase contrast
- With magnification indication
CONDENSER FOR ZERNIKE PHASE CONTRAST
An optional height adjustable Zernike NA. 1.25 phase contrast disc condenser with plan phase 10/20/S40x and S100x oil immersion objectives and darkfield stop position for darkfield contrast up to 400x magnification is available
OPTIONAL PHASE CONTRAST CONDENSER WITH SLIDER
There is a choice of two optional NA. 1.25 phase contrast condenser sets with phase contrast sliders and plan phase contrast objectives. The first version comes with plan phase 10x and S40x objectives with matching slider, the second version comes with plan phase 20x and S100x oil immersion objectives. Available for iScope® 160 mm and IOS infinity versions
All sets are supplied with a centering telescope and a green opaque filter

FOCUSING
- Coaxial coarse and fine adjustments, 200 graduations, 1 μm per graduation, 200 μm per rotation, total travel range is approximately 24 mm.
- Supplied with an adjustable rack stop to prevent damage to sample and objectives.
- The coarse adjustments are equipped with friction control
To upgrade an existing iScope® to darkfield a cardioid condenser with integrated high powered 5 W LED illumination and external power supply (IS.9150) is available. One also has to purchase a 86.521, Plan PL S100x objective with built-in iris diaphragm or a IS.7200-I super contrast plan PLi S100x infinity corrected objective
ILLUMINATION FOR DARKFIELD
High powered 5 W LED, built-in the cardioid mirror condensor
ILLUMINATION FOR BRIGHTFIELD
Standardly supplied with:
- 3 W adjustable NeoLED diascopic illumination with internal 100-240 V power supply
- The innovative NeoLED design offers larger apertures, allowing the optical system of the iScope® microscope to produce images at higher resolutions, very close to the theoretical diffraction limit of the optics. Other benefits of the NeoLED is the low energy consumption, no heating and a long operating lifetime
- Köhler illumination on models with IOS plan and plan phase infinity corrected system provides high contrast and a maximum achievable resolving power of the optics. Also optionally available for other models
ICARE SENSOR
The unique iCare Sensor is developed to avoid unnecessary loss of energy. The illumination of the microscope automatically switches off shortly after microscopists step away from their position
CSS - CABLE STORAGE SYSTEM
iScope® allows users to easily insert the power cable into the back of the instrument, which enables easy storage. The integrated carrying grip at the back of the microscope ensures safe transportation of the microscope
PACKAGE CONTENT
Supplied with power cord, dust cover, a spare fuse, user manual and 5 ml immersion oil for models with S100x objective. All packed in polystyrene boxes
