Flexible system format supports a wide-range of observation methods

• New binocular and trinocular observation heads enhance the ergonomics and operation of a BX43 microscope. Choose between tilting and traditional configurations.
• The new light intensity management feature coupled with new, encoded objective nosepieces controls light intensity as observation magnification changes.
• The new LED light source offers superb color reproduction from purple to cyan to red, with ultra-long lifespan.
• Get digital images in a snap! The new hand switch for the Olympus DP21 digital camera can be easily mounted within a finger’s reach of the focus knob, allowing the operator to snap a digital image without disrupting ergonomic position or observation.
• New U-LC condenser achieves even illumination of specimens for observation from 2x to 100x dry. An assortment of other condensers allow you to perform a wide range of contrast techniques such as Nomarski (DIC), polarization for Gout analysis, phase contrast, and darkfield observation.

Ergonomic design for efficiency and comfort

• Updated Y-shaped frame brings user controls forward for ease of access, efficiency and enhanced operator comfort.
• The new tilting, telescoping/lifting binocular observation tube offers unsurpassed comfort in viewing position. The new U-TTLBI binocular head tilts from 0-27°, extends an incredible 55mm, and lifts 45mm to accommodate different operators and reduce fatigue during use.
• The new color-balanced LED with light intensity management system diminishes eye fatigue and the strain of repetitive adjustments.

Ergonomic Design for Efficiency and Comfort

• Transmitted light frame features a unique low-positioned stage for uncompromised comfort during microscope use.
• Barely 5 inches off the work surface, the BX46 stage is inches lower than standard microscopes, allowing for increased working comfort. Only minimal forearm movement is necessary to easily change or mark specimens.
• Updated Y-shaped frame brings user controls forward for ease of access, efficiency and enhanced operator comfort.
• The new tilting, telescoping/lifting binocular observation tube offers unsurpassed comfort in viewing position. The new U-TTLBI binocular head tilts from 0°-27°, extends an incredible 55mm, and lifts 45mm to accommodate different operators and reduce fatigue during use.
• The new color-balanced LED with light intensity management system diminishes eye fatigue and the strain of repetitive adjustments.
• The light action, low torque stage reduces the force needed to move the specimen. Move the low-position handles with just a light push of the finger tips.
• Y-shaped frame brings all adjustable features toward the user for easy access to controls, while also providing maximum stability.
• Five-position focusing nosepiece with slider slot for simple polarization.

Flexible System Format

• The BX46 accepts all UIS2 optics, delivering bright, sharp and high-contrast images.
• The BX46 comes with the new Olympus LED transmitted light source, but a 6V/30W halogen lamphouse is optional.
• A variety of contrast methods are available for the BX46 such as brightfield, Gout Analysis and simple polarized light observations.
• Choose from a wide selection of observation tubes, stages, slide holders, intermediate units, filters and peripherals.

Advanced Modularity to Suit a Variety of Observation Styles

• Highly scalable microscope system to answer the demands of research today and tomorrow.
• New fluorescence illuminators, filter cubes and Olympus high performance filters provide added convenience to researchers – there’s no need for tools to add a filter cube to the new 8-position illuminator turret.
• Designed for maximum flexibility, the BX53 features forward-oriented controls for ease of access and improved operator comfort.
• The 12V/100W halogen illumination source provides bright, balanced illumination for brightfield and contrast observation methods.
• Ergonomic Y-shaped frame for maximum stability and comfort, with low position focus control knobs located on both the left and right sides of the frame.
• Olympus UIS2 optics deliver bright, sharp, high-contrast images.
• The new motorized 8-position universal condenser and encoded objective nosepiece are integrated with cellSens^® software to automatically change contrast inserts (i.e. DIC prisms or phase contrast annuli) when the magnification changes.

Flexible System Format

• Modular design accommodates a variety of accessories without any compromise to image quality.
• Accepts a variety of observation attachments for multiple viewers and digital cameras.
• The 100W Halogen for transmitted or reflected light, 100W HBO* (Mercury) and 75W XBO (Xenon), LED, and 3rd party metalhalide* illumination options for reflected light and fluorescence.
• Ceramic-coated stage with left-hand or right-hand low drive control, rotating mechanism and torque adjustment mechanism, optional rubber grips (non-stick grooved coaxial, plain, rotatable stages and others are also available).

1) The BX63 features a motorized focus and field diaphragm. LED lights clearly indicate the condition of the observation method (i.e. transmitted light intensity, shutter position, observation method in use, mirror position). The BX63 is ready to accept the proprietary color-balanced Olympus LED lamp house or, with an adapter, a halogen lamp house may be attached. All motorized components can be controlled through the Touch Panel Controller, or through cellSens software.

2) The BX63 readily accepts a 7-position motorized nosepiece that comes equipped with a DIC slider slot. Install Olympus UIS2 objectives for maximum performance of your system.

3) The NEW ultrasonic stage for the BX63 delivers high precision X-Y control of your specimen. The BX3-SSU mounts to the frame in a triplex mounting configuration for remarkable stability and improved imaging reliability. Use either the X-Y controller unit, the Touch Panel interface or cellSens software to easily position your specimen.

4) The Touch Panel Controller (TPC) allows you to easily configure, manage and control the operation of the BX63 system.

5) The remote focus unit allows you to truly customize your workspace. Move it to where you are most comfortable - in front of the microscope or in front of the computer monitor - for maximum efficiency. Attach the X-Y stage controller to the bottom of the focus unit to create your personal command center - change objective positions, observation modes, turret positions, light intensities, even snap an image - at your fingertips.

6) The 8-position motorized fluorescence illuminator enables researchers to readily change filter cubes without tools (click in, click out), and features a fly's-eye lens array for improved evenness of illumination of your specimen.

7) The optional motorized attenuator wheel (6-position neutral density wheel) can be attached to either the fluorescence or transmitted light path, and allows easy management of light intensity that reaches the specimen.

8) The new motorized universal condenser integrates optical components to accommodate a variety of transmitted light observation methods such as DIC (differential interference contrast) and phase contrast. Control the turret rotation, top lens position and polarizer position with either the Touch Panel Controller, cellSens software, or with the front-mounted buttons.
