Biological Microscope iScope IS.1159-PLPHi — Binocular phase-contrast system with Köhler LED

The iScope IS.1159-PLPHi is a binocular biological microscope designed for phase-contrast observation and documentation in teaching and life-science laboratories.

• Binocular head with photo tube for imaging
• Plan phase-contrast objectives 10x–100x
• EWF 10x/22 mm wide-field eyepieces
• Köhler LED illumination with iCare sensor

Clear phase-contrast imaging for reliable cell observation

The optical configuration centres on Plan phase-contrast objectives, which deliver consistent field flatness and superior contrast for transparent specimens. This design reduces image distortion across the field, enabling clearer visualisation of cellular structures during routine analysis. With wide-field eyepieces and corrected plan optics, the instrument supports repeatable observations that benefit both practical teaching and documented laboratory workflows.

Consistent illumination and sensor-assisted stability

Equipped with Köhler LED illumination, the instrument ensures uniform light distribution and low thermal load at the specimen, which helps maintain sample integrity during extended sessions. The integrated iCare sensor monitors illumination conditions to promote reproducible results and minimise manual readjustment, making long or repeated periods at the bench more efficient and less error-prone.

Ergonomic design that improves throughput and documentation

A binocular head with a dedicated photo port simplifies the transition from observation to imaging, while EWF 10x/22 mm eyepieces offer comfortable viewing for extended use. The mechanical stage without rack overhang provides unobstructed slide handling and precise specimen positioning, which speeds up routine screening and reduces the risk of sample interference. These aspects combine to reduce handling time and support clearer documentation of findings.

Robust feature set with laboratory-ready compatibility

The phase-contrast capability, plan-corrected objectives and dedicated imaging port form a cohesive package tailored to education and life-science tasks. The construction supports standard accessory integration and separate accessory assignments where required. Built for regular laboratory use, the configuration balances optical performance with straightforward operation to support both learning environments and practical research benches.
