Delphi-X Observer DX.1153-PLPHi — Biological microscope with Plan phase-contrast objectives and 3 W NeoLED Köhler

Delphi-X Observer DX.1153-PLPHi is an upright biological microscope designed for phase-contrast examinations in research, teaching and diagnostic laboratories, optimising contrast for transparent specimens.

• SWF 10x/25 mm eyepieces
• Six-position objective turret
• Plan phase-contrast objectives incl 100x oil
• 3 W NeoLED Köhler illumination

Optimised imaging for phase-contrast work

The instrument’s combination of Plan phase-contrast objectives and SWF eyepieces provides sharp, flat-field images with improved detail across the field of view. Phase contrast converts minute optical-density variations into visible contrast, making unstained cells and thin sections easier to evaluate. The set of 10x, 20x, 40x and 100x oil immersion objectives covers common laboratory magnifications and helps to reduce the need for multiple microscopes. Optical flatness and corrected aberrations in the Plan optics minimise edge distortions, which benefits quantitative observations and image documentation.

Even, low-heat illumination for stable long-term observation

The 3 W NeoLED Köhler illumination ensures homogeneous field lighting and stable colour temperature while producing minimal heat at the specimen plane, which protects live samples and delicate preparations. Köhler alignment provides uniform illumination and contrast control, improving reproducibility between sessions. The six-position objective turret enables quick, reliable objective changes without losing focus, supporting efficient workflows during practical classes or multi-specimen analyses. The SWF 10x/25 mm eyepieces contribute to a comfortable exit pupil and straightforward focusing.

Practical build and accessory compatibility for lab workflows

Robust mechanical design and the sixfold turret provide durability for frequent use in teaching and clinical environments. An oil immersion 100x objective is included for high-resolution requirements; proper oil technique yields finer detail at high numerical apertures. Accessories are referenced separately on the accessory sheet for tailored configurations such as camera adapters or replacement eyepieces, allowing modular expansion without replacing the base instrument. The package supports repeatable imaging and can be integrated into established laboratory routines with minimal training.
