iScope IS.1153-PLi/DFi Biological Microscope — Trinocular darkfield system with Köhler LED (Euromex)

The iScope IS.1153-PLi/DFi is a trinocular biological microscope optimised for darkfield observation and routine documentation in life science, teaching and clinical laboratory environments.

• Trinocular head for camera attachment
• Plan optics for flat field imaging
• Darkfield illumination for high contrast
• Köhler LED for even, long-life lighting

Superior imaging that supports reliable analysis

This laboratory-grade instrument combines Plan IOS objectives with an EWF 10x/22 mm eyepiece to deliver a flat field and clear resolution across the image plane. Plan optics correct for field curvature and ensure that measurements and visual assessments remain accurate from centre to edge, which is essential during microstructural analysis or specimen screening. The optical design reduces the need for frequent refocusing and supports consistent results in repetitive workflows.

Enhanced contrast and stable illumination for delicate samples

The integrated darkfield capability emphasises fine structural details by excluding direct light and highlighting scattered light from the specimen. When paired with Köhler LED illumination, users benefit from uniform brightness, adjustable contrast and lower thermal load on sensitive samples. LED lighting also provides long operational life and reduced maintenance compared with older lamp systems, supporting continuous use in busy laboratories with minimal downtime.

Practical ergonomics and reliable sample handling

A mechanical stage without rack overhang provides unobstructed movement and prevents accidental catches during stage travel, improving handling precision for slide scanning. The trinocular head permits simultaneous binocular viewing and camera mounting for image capture or documentation, facilitating teaching demonstrations, digital archiving and remote analysis. Robust mechanical components ensure repeatable positioning and reduce cumulative error during serial inspections.

Relevant applications and support for confident integration

This system is well suited to cell biology, microbiology teaching labs and specimen screening where contrast and documentation matter. The optical configuration supports both observation and digital capture workflows, helping laboratories to standardise procedures. If additional technical specifications or accessory recommendations are required, Metav Werkzeuge can provide detailed documentation and advise on compatible cameras and accessories to match the laboratory’s needs.

FAQ

What magnifications are available with this microscope?
The iScope IS.1153-PLi/DFi is supplied with Plan IOS objectives at 4x, 10x, 40x and 100x together with an EWF 10x/22 mm eyepiece, providing a flexible range for routine laboratory work.

Is the microscope suitable for image documentation?
Yes, the trinocular head on the Euromex system allows simultaneous binocular observation and camera attachment for straightforward documentation and digital archiving.

How does darkfield improve specimen visibility?
Darkfield illumination enhances contrast by blocking direct light and visualising scattered light from structures; in this model the darkfield setup is complemented by Köhler LED for even, adjustable illumination with low thermal impact.

Can sensitive biological samples be observed without heat damage?
The Köhler LED lighting produces minimal heat at the specimen plane compared with traditional lamps, reducing the risk of thermal damage during extended observation.

Where can I get accessories or further technical data?
For accessory recommendations and complete technical documentation related to the iScope IS.1153-PLi/DFi, contact Metav Werkzeuge and request compatible cameras or spare parts.
