About National Optical 453TBL-10 Compact Binocular Stereo
The National Optical 453TBL-10 Compact Binocular Stereo Microscope has a pair of 10x widefield eyepieces, paired 2x and 4x achromatic objectives that are parfocal and parcentered, upper and lower tungsten illumination, interchangeable stage plates, and a fixed stage with clips. The binocular head has a pair of eyepieces with interpupillary adjustment and fixed inclination to reduce eye and neck strain. Dioptric adjustment accommodates individual eye-strength differences. The objectives provide low magnification and a longer focal length for inspecting large-scale specimens, or specimens that require hands-on manipulation or repair, including rocks, minerals, watches, or circuit boards. Achromatic objectives provide color correction of magnified images. Parcentered and parfocal objectives ensure that the image stays centered and focused when the magnification is changed. A stereo microscope, sometimes called an inspection or dissection microscope, has a longer working distance that enables users to manipulate the object being inspected, and is used in semiconductor and electronics industries or by mineralogists, dentists, and students when the user needs to handle or perform work under magnification, including circuit boards, rocks and gems, and dental appliances.The microscope has upper (episcopic) illumination that reflects light off the specimen for enhanced visibility of opaque specimens and lower (diascopic) illumination that transmits light up through the specimen for enhanced visibility of translucent and transparent objects. The tungsten (incandescent) light sources provide bright light. Lighting can be configured for upper, lower, or simultaneous upper and lower illumination. The reversible black and white stage plate is used with top-mounted lighting to provide contrast with light- and dark-colored specimens. The frosted glass stage plate provides evenly diffused illumination. The fixed stage has stage clips to secure the slide
