Laboratory Ore Microscope Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter
Product Code : SEL-M-10884
Quick Answer: Ore microscopy relies on reflected light, so this laboratory ore microscope has a pre-centred 20w tungsten halogen incident illuminator alongside mirror or 15W lamp transmitted light, a 140mm ball-bearing rotating stage with vernier and semi-plan P-4x, P-10x and P-40x SL objectives.

Key Features
- Ball-bearing rotating stage, 140mm diameter, graduated with vernier, lock and specimen clips
- Separate coarse and fine focusing knobs
- Transmitted light: 50mm plano-concave mirror on gimbal mount, interchangeable with a sub-stage 15W lamp for 220V or 110V
- Incident illuminator: pre-centred 20w tungsten halogen source with transformer and intensity control
- Intermediate tube with slide-out analyser, λ-gypsum plate, λ/4-mica plate and Bertrand lens
- Fully rotatable polariser on strain-free Abbe condenser, N.A. 1.25, with iris diaphragm

About This Product
An ore microscope combines incident light with polarising optics; on this laboratory model a pre-centred 20w tungsten halogen source with intensity control lights the specimen from above, while a 50mm mirror or a sub-stage 15W lamp gives transmitted light. The intermediate tube holds a slide-out analyser, λ-gypsum and λ/4-mica plates and a Bertrand lens, each locked in and inserted as required. The 140mm ball-bearing stage rotates and is graduated with a vernier. Schools and distributors in Luxembourg, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Afghanistan, Turkey and Costa Rica can order the Laboratory Ore Microscope from School Educational Instrument.
Frequently Asked Questions
What compensator plates are fitted?
A λ-gypsum plate (1st order red, 560 nanometres) and a λ/4-mica plate (145 nanometres), locked into the intermediate tube with the analyser and Bertrand lens.
Can it use both reflected and transmitted light?
Yes. It has an incident 20w tungsten halogen illuminator, and for transmitted light a 50mm plano-concave mirror that is interchangeable with a sub-stage 15W lamp.
