Cool illumination (55i)
Utilizing white LED illumination, the 55i is
an ideal choice for brightfield applications.
As the color temperature does not change
even when the brightness is altered,
adjusting the color balance filter or voltage
is no longer necessary. And because the
LED illuminator is built into the base,
comprehensive Koehler illumination using a
diaphragm is possible. The illuminator does
not generate heat. Due to its minimal
power consumption, the 55i has an
extremely long lamp lifecycle, and its battery
drive means it can be used anywhere.
Refined stage
Stay-in-position stage handle
The stage handle stays at the same position
without interfering with the stage
movement. Because the stage handle and
the focusing knob are always situated close
to each other, users can easily and smoothly
operate the controls with their hand resting
on the desk. The height and torque of the
stage handle are adjustable to further
enhance comfort during operation.
Stage with higher durability and
smoother surface
“Alumite,” a new hardening treatment, has
been applied to the stage surface to increase
durability and smoothness. This facilitates
the smooth exchange of specimens while
preventing the surface from being scratched
by the repeated exchange of slide glasses.
Refocusing stage
The stage can be lowered by pushing the
lever down, and will return to its former
height when the lever is pressed again. This
feature eliminates the need to refocus the
image manually each time the specimen is
changed and the slide oiled, greatly
improving microscopy productivity.
New ergonomic tube
The new ergonomic tube can be inclined
from 10° to 30° and the eyepieces can be
extended 40mm. This ensures optimum eye
point and a comfortable viewing posture,
regardless of the operator’s physique or if
intermediate modules are being used. An
optional DSC port for attaching a digital
camera enables users to create a digital
documentation system in comfort. An
optional eye-level riser* can raise the eye
point in 25mm increments.
*The number of risers that can be used at any one time
depends on the intermediate modules being used.
Easy-access controls
Frequently used controls and switches for
adjusting the field diaphragm and
illumination intensity have been
concentrated in the lower part of the
righthand side to minimize the operator’s
hand movements and enable operation
without having to take your eyes off the
specimen.
Rock-solid stability
Utilizing computer-aided engineering (CAE),
Nikon has successfully increased the solidity
of the microscope body and produced a
sleek, modern design. Although compact in
size, the new microscopes boast superb
durability and stability, even during
applications in which they are upgraded with
various attachments.
