Description
Deployed across routine microbiology screening benches and wastewater ecology labs, the Euromex IS.1153-PLPH Phase Contrast Microscope provides reliable unstained cell tracking on a finite 160 mm optical track. It delivers 100x, 200x, 400x, and 1000x magnification via four DIN Plan Phase PLPH objectives: 10x/0.25, 20x/0.40, spring-loaded 40x/0.65, and spring-loaded 100x/1.25 oil immersion. The 30-degree inclined trinocular head incorporates a light path selector slider and vertical 23.2 mm photo port, paired with high-eyepoint EWF 10x/20 mm eyepieces across a 48 mm to 76 mm interpupillary span.
Transmitted light comes from a 3W NeoLED base lamp focused through a Zernike NA 1.25 phase disc slider condenser with dedicated annular positions for 10x, 20x, 40x, and 100x objectives plus brightfield. The smart iCare sensor automatically cuts lamp power when operators leave the workstation, conserving energy and reducing heat. Built on a 7.7 kg metal frame measuring 210 x 310 x 475 mm, it includes a 156 x 138 mm mechanical stage (75 x 50 mm XY travel), coaxial focus knobs with 1.4-micron graduations, and internal universal 100-240V AC power with integrated cable storage.

DIN Plan Phase Optics & Wastewater Sludge Analysis
Living protozoa, rotifers, and filamentous bacteria in wastewater aeration basins are virtually transparent in standard brightfield light. The Zernike phase condenser shifts background light to transform cellular thickness variations into high-contrast boundaries, letting technicians identify sludge-bulking organisms without toxic fixatives. The included green filter sharpens contrast further, while the spring-loaded 40x and 100x objectives protect slide wet mounts from accidental crushing.
Trinocular Image Capture & Energy-Saving Automation
The dedicated vertical photo port routes clean optical data to external digital cameras, letting technicians record real-time video clips of living protozoa and cellular motility for compliance logs. The built-in iCare sensor detects operator presence, powering down the NeoLED emitter after inactivity to prevent stage warming. The double-layer mechanical stage provides smooth 75 x 50 mm coordinate translation, while coaxial focus knobs allow precise focal plane isolation.
- Vertical photo port routes clean optical data to external digital video capture systems
- iCare motion sensor cuts energy consumption and prevents unnecessary optical heating
- Reversed quintuple nosepiece leaves the stage completely open for rapid slide swaps
