Axiovert 40
11/03 B 46-0031 e
1Ć2
Major instrument features include:
• Modular design for optimum adaptation to applications
• Microscope stand of compact design; ergonomic operation provided by a stage height of only 185 mm
on Axiovert 40 C and low-positioned controls
• Integrated 12 V 35 W power supply
• Continuously adjustable illumination intensity
• Upright, non-reversed images
• Fixed Köhler illumination, changeable condenser, numerical apertures of 0.55, 0.4 or 0.2 and working
distances of w 31 mm, w 53 mm or w 90 mm; brightfield illumination for large object fields for vessel
heights of up to 190 mm
• User-friendly phase contrast by means of slider with two annular diaphragms
• Brightness compensation by attenuation filters providing dazzle-free switching between phase contrast
and brightfield illumination
• VAREL (variable relief) with continuous transition from unilateral darkfield to oblique brightfield, contrastĆ
ing of the wells of microtiter plates up to the edge without special preparations
• PlasDIC for relief-like imaging especially of thick objects with variable contrasting, contrasting of the wells
of microtiter plates up to the edge
• Ph and PlasDIC: Simple changeover to phase contrast or PlasDIC
• Incident-light fluorescence contrast usable alternatively to or simultaneously with brightfield, phase conĆ
trast and VAREL
• Possibility of adapting incident-light fluorescence to the respective application by replacing the fluoresĆ
cence filter combination
• Variable stage use by mounting the attachable object traverser M
• Use of different mounting frames including marker strips for various culture vessels
• Specimen stage can be replaced by specimen stage glass for optimum visibility of the nosepiece, a heatable
stage or a temperable microscope stage for demanding experiments
• Standardized mounts for objectives, eyepieces and lamps
• Photo/video port for single-reflex cameras, compact digital cameras, digital cameras, e.g. AxioCam, and
video cameras
