Description
Ceti’s Vulcan Motorised LED Compound Microscope is a biological microscope designed to allow users to enjoy safe, comfortable and superb quality observations of their specimens.
The intensity of illumination for each objective can be adjusted and the intelligent AIS (Automatic Illumination System) automatically recalls that intensity with the relevant objective. This avoids the possibility of uncomfortable over-bright illumination when switching objectives. With the handy ECO function, the transmitted light turns off automatically after 30 minutes of non-use. This not only saves energy, but also prolongs the life of the long-life LED even further.
The motorised sextuple nosepiece adds to the ergonomics of the microscope as objectives can be selected via buttons on the front of the stand, removing the necessity to manually rotate the nosepiece – with the Remote Control Pad objectives, they can be switched by simply pressing the buttons. Users can also self-define two of the most commonly used objectives and swap between these two objectives by pressing the green button.
The motorised swing-out condenser automatically swings the top lens element in or out according to the objective lens that is selected via the intelligent linking system.
The optional epi-fluorescence system features high-quality filter blocks. Six filter blocks can be fitted into the epi-fluorescence attachment, allowing the operator to view different fluorophores without the necessity to change filter blocks.
