Product Details

The variable model for the flexible user in the laboratory and vocational training

Features

The KERN OBF-1 and OBL-1 models are excellent and robust laboratory microscopes for all common routine applications.
Thanks to the simple Koehler illumination, the adjustable field diaphragm and a pre-centred and height adjustable Abbe condenser with adjustable aperture diaphragm, these microscopes produce impressive images in both bright and dark field applications.
The microscopes are equipped with wide field eyepieces, with achromatic, plan achromatic or infinity corrected E-plan objectives, depending on the model.
These binocular microscopes are equipped with diopter adjustment.
A trinocular head is optionally available, allowing a camera to be fitted.
A nosepiece for up to four objectives and a large stage are provided as standard.
The following optional accessories are available: A variety of eyepieces, objectives, a complete polarisation kit, a phase contrast unit, complete HBO and LED fluorescence kits and more.
20W halogen illumination and a 3W LED alternative version are available for illumination.
One of the central features of this variable and simultaneously robust series of microscopes is the stable and precisely adjustable mechanism.
