AmScope 40X-2500X LED Compound Binocular Laboratory Microscope

Introduzione

The AmScope B120C binocular compound microscope is engineered for educational, clinical, and laboratory applications. It is an ideal instrument for students and professionals in medical and biological fields. This microscope features a professional Siedentopf binocular head, a double-layer mechanical stage, coaxial coarse and fine focusing, and LED illumination. It offers six magnification settings ranging from 40x to 2500x, making it suitable for detailed biological, pharmaceutical, and bacteriological research.

This manual provides essential information for the proper setup, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of your AmScope B120C microscope to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Installazione e assemblaggio

Upon unboxing, carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure all parts are present and undamaged before proceeding with assembly.

Passaggi di configurazione iniziali:

1. Disimballaggio: Gently remove the microscope body, binocular head, eyepieces, objectives, and power cord from their protective packaging.
2. Attaching the Binocular Head: Loosen the head locking screw on the top of the microscope body. Carefully insert the binocular head into the top port, ensuring it is fully seated. Tighten the locking screw to secure the head.
3. Inserimento degli oculari: Insert the WF10X and WF25X widefield eyepieces into the eyepiece tubes of the binocular head.
4. Installing Objectives: Rotate the revolving nosepiece to expose the empty objective ports. Screw in the 4x, 10x, 40x (S), and 100x (S, oil) achromatic objectives into the nosepiece in ascending order of magnification.
5. Collegamento elettrico: Connect the power cord to the microscope's power input and then to a 240 Volt AC power outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the OFF position before connecting.
6. Regolazione della distanza interpupillare: While looking through the eyepieces, adjust the distance between the eyepiece tubes by moving them closer or further apart until a single, clear circular field of view viene osservato.
7. Regolazione diottrica: If one eye is dominant or has different vision, use the diopter adjustment ring on one of the eyepiece tubes to fine-tune focus for that eye after focusing with the other eye.

Istruzioni per l'uso

Binocular Head Rotation:

The Siedentopf binocular head can be rotated 360 degrees and is inclined at 30 degrees for comfortable viewing, reducing neck strain during prolonged use.

Impostazioni di ingrandimento:

The microscope provides six widefield magnification settings by combining the WF10X and WF25X eyepieces with the 4x, 10x, 40x, and 100x objectives:

• 40x (10x eyepiece x 4x objective)
• 100x (10x eyepiece x 10x objective)
• 250x (25x eyepiece x 10x objective)
• 400x (10x eyepiece x 40x objective)
• 1000x (10x eyepiece x 100x objective)
• 2500x (25x eyepiece x 100x objective)

Meccanico Stage and Focusing:

The double-layer mechanical stage allows for smooth and precise movement of specimen slides. Use the coaxial coarse and fine focus knobs located on both sides of the microscope for accurate focusing.

• Manopola di messa a fuoco grossolana: Used for large adjustments to bring the specimen into approximate focus.
• Manopola di messa a fuoco fine: Used for small, precise adjustments to achieve sharp focus.
• Stage Blocco: COMEtage locking device protects objectives and slides from accidental contact.

Sistema di illuminazione a LED:

The microscope features powerful LED transmitted illumination with variable intensity. The light source is daylight balanced to produce natural colors for imaging, improving contrast and resolution.

• Condensatore Abbe: The NA1.25 Abbe condenser with an iris diaphragm and filters allows for precise control over the illumination aperture and contrast.
• Rack and Pinion Adjustment: The condenser can be adjusted vertically using a rack and pinion mechanism.

Manutenzione e cura

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your microscope.

• Pulizia dell'ottica: Use only specialized lens cleaning paper and lens cleaning solution for objectives and eyepieces. Never touch optical surfaces with bare fingers. Dust can be removed with a soft brush or air blower.
• Pulizia del corpo: Pulisci il corpo del microscopio con un panno morbido eamp stoffa. Evitare l'uso di prodotti chimici aggressivi o detergenti abrasivi.
• Magazzinaggio: When not in use, cover the microscope with a dust cover to protect it from dust and debris. Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Riciclo delle lampadine: For information on recycling the LED bulb, please refer to local regulations and guidelines for electronic waste.
• Broken Bulb Handling: In the event of a broken bulb, exercise caution. Do not touch broken glass directly. Refer to local guidelines for safe cleanup and disposal of broken lamps.
