Description

The Binocular Student Biological Microscope YG0658 // YG0658-1 is designed to provide high-quality imaging and precision for educational, clinical, and research applications. Equipped with achromatic objectives (4x, 10x, 40x, 100x oil immersion) and a quadruple revolving nosepiece, this microscope delivers sharp, clear, and distortion-free observations. Its binocular head is inclined at 45° for ergonomic comfort, while the YG0658-1 model includes an anti-mold system, making it ideal for humid environments.

This microscope features a coaxial coarse and fine focus system with a fine focusing scale of 0.002mm, allowing for precise adjustments during high-magnification observations. The double-layer mechanical stage (140x140mm, moving range 50x75mm) ensures smooth and precise slide positioning, while the N.A.1.25 Abbe condenser with an iris diaphragm enhances light control and image contrast. With multiple lighting options, including a built-in 6V/20W halogen lamp and a plan-concave mirror, it is adaptable to various laboratory conditions.

Market Price

The Binocular Student Biological Microscope YG0658 // YG0658-1 is priced between $391and $412 USD, depending on configuration and optional accessories such as trinocular heads, phase contrast kits, and quintuple nosepieces.
