CatScope : CS-P8000R

Upright Polarizing Research Microscope

CS-P8000R

CS-P8000R trinocular polarizing microscope with Transmitted and Reflected Illumination, is outfitted with high quality strain-free infinity plan objectives, extreme widefield eyepieces, and a powerful 24V/100W transmitted as well as reflected halogen lamp. It is equipped with centerable bertrand lens, polarizer/analyzer, three compensators (tint plate, quarter-wave plate, and quartz wedge), centerable and rotatable stage, mechanical stage attachment and NA 0.9/0.25 flip-top condenser.

HEAD

Viewing head
Comfortable observation with compensation free trinocular head inclined at 30°, suitable for observer, with wide interpupillary range of 48-75mm.
High eye-point ultra wide field plan eyepieces
Breaking through 20mm conventional field of view, reaching to 22mm, much smoother and wide field of view, is helpful to improve the work efficiency. Larger adjustable range of diopter from -5 to +5, meets more demands of different users.

NOSEPIECE & OBJECTIVES

Nosepiece
Large operating space with backward quintuple nosepiece and option with slot for Analyzer.
Professional Infinity plan objectives
Infinity plan stress-free objectives, is the best choice for polarizing observation. Adopting crystal optics materials, perfectly corrects all kinds of chromatic aberrations. Large numerical aperture design presents high resolution, high contrast micro-images. The image is clear and bright.

STAGE

The graduated, big circular metal stage provides 360° of rotation for birefringence-testing, as well as a mechanical caliper for X-Y translation, can be positioned with lock screw. The stage is anti-corrosive and anti-friction as it is coated with graphite.
Attachable Mechanical Stage with amoving range of 30mm x 40mm.

ILLUMINATION

Condenser
N.A.0.9 Swing-out achromatic condenser, center adjustable, adjustable aperture diaphragm with scale, provides ample uniform light and clear image for observation at different magnification. Pluggable 360° rotatable polarizer is removable for ordinary observation and easy to be replaced.
Light Source
Koehler Illumination System. External Power supply. 24V/100W external halogen lamp house provides transmitted light. Illuminator center is preset, hence no adjustment needed after replacing the lamp. Built-in 100-240V wide voltage transformer. Intensity adjustable.

INTERMEDIATE TUBE

Analyzer & Compensator
Intermediate tube holds bertrand lens with rotating switch, pluggable analyzer rotates 360° with 1° increments and Minimum scale reading of 0.1° (Vernier scale). Slots for compensators: Gypsum full λ plate, Mica 1/4λ plate and Quartz Wedge.
The addition of a Bertrand lens allows easy viewing of conoscopic interference patterns. The analyzer features a full-range dial for adjustable cross-polarization.
