bScope BS.1152-PLPHi — Biological microscope with Plan phase-contrast optics and Köhler NeoLED (Euromex)

bScope BS.1152-PLPHi is a biological microscope designed for phase-contrast imaging in routine laboratory work and teaching, offering oil-immersion capability and an ergonomic head for extended use.

• Plan phase-contrast objectives for high-contrast imaging
• Köhler NeoLED illumination with stable light output
• Five-position nosepiece for versatile magnification
• Ergonomic head with two swivel positions for comfort

Precision phase-contrast optics for clearer cellular detail

The optical layout centres on Plan phase-contrast objectives (IOS 10x / 20x / S40x / S100x oil) combined with HWF eyepieces, which produce a flat field and consistent contrast across the image. This optical combination reduces artefacts and improves the visibility of transparent specimens, making routine observations and documentation more reliable. The inclusion of an oil-immersion 100x objective ensures that fine structural detail is resolvable when needed, while the optical design maintains colour fidelity and even illumination for reproducible results.

Stable illumination and ergonomic handling to improve throughput

Illumination is provided by Köhler NeoLED, a low-heat light source that delivers uniform, flicker-free light and reduces maintenance intervals compared with conventional lamps. The instrument’s ergonomic head with two swivel positions and a binocular head layout supports comfortable viewing angles during long sessions, lowering operator fatigue and improving consistency between users. A five-position nosepiece enables fast changes between magnifications, cutting downtime in multi-step routines and increasing sample throughput in teaching and diagnostic environments.

Built for routine labs and adaptable workflows

The instrument is engineered for everyday laboratory use with robust mechanics and straightforward operation. The fivefold revolver and the selection of HWF 10x/20 mm eyepieces support common workflows in cell biology, microbiology and histology. Accessory allocation is documented separately to simplify configuration for specific tasks. For laboratories seeking a balance between performance and ease of use, this model offers proven phase-contrast capability without unnecessary complexity.

FAQ

What magnifications are covered by the supplied objectives?
The objectives supplied cover the common laboratory range with Plan phase-contrast IOS 10x, 20x, S40x and S100x oil, enabling low- to high-magnification examinations and oil-immersion observation with the Euromex BS.1152-PLPHi.

Is the illumination suitable for long sessions and photographic documentation?
Yes, the Köhler NeoLED illumination provides stable, uniform light with minimal heat output, which is well suited to extended use and consistent image capture on the bScope BS.1152-PLPHi.

Does the microscope support comfortable multi-user use in teaching environments?
The binocular head with two swivel positions and the ergonomic design reduce neck and eye strain, supporting repeated use across different operators in teaching and routine lab settings.

Can the BS.1152-PLPHi be adapted with additional accessories?
Accessory allocation is available in the separate accessories field; the instrument’s five-position nosepiece and standard eyepiece format make it compatible with common accessories for phase-contrast microscopy.

Is an oil-immersion lens included and when should it be used?
An S100x oil objective is included for high-resolution observations; oil immersion should be used when resolving fine structural detail at high numerical aperture is required.
