Optika B1000 Model 1 Brightfield Trinocular Empty Base

Description

Build a customized research workstation for biomedical core facilities using the Optika B-1000 Model 1 Chassis. Supplied as a modular transmitted-light brightfield chassis without primary objectives, it allows laboratories to select exact IOS W-PLAN or U-PLAN lenses tailored to specific cytology or histopathology protocols. The 30-degree inclined trinocular head features extra-widefield high-eyepoint WF 10x/22 mm eyepieces and an overhead vertical photo channel with a selectable 100:0 visual / 0:100 camera beam splitter.

Transmitted light is supplied by an interchangeable high-output 100W halogen or white LED light block, regulated by an electronic dimmer circuit with digital memory tracking. The advanced 242 x 157 mm mechanical stage features an extreme anti-scratch ceramic coating and a belt-driven coaxial movement system (75 x 50 mm XY travel) that eliminates protruding gear racks. Supported by a swing-out achromatic condenser (NA 1.20) and coaxial coarse and fine focus knobs with 0.001 mm (1-micron) fine graduations, this 11.5 kg frame operates on universal 100-240V AC power.

Key Features of Optika B-1000 Model 1 Chassis

A modular research-grade transmitted-light brightfield trinocular microscope chassis designed for custom institutional pathology outfitting. Features a ceramic-coated belt-driven mechanical stage, 1-micron fine focus, a swing-out achromatic condenser, and a 100W halogen/LED light engine.

• Modular chassis architecture allows custom outfitting of IOS W-PLAN or U-PLAN objectives
• Advanced ceramic-coated mechanical stage (242 x 157 mm) with extreme scratch resistance
• Belt-driven coaxial XY movement system (75 x 50 mm travel) eliminates protruding gear racks
• Interchangeable 100W halogen or high-power white LED transmitted illumination module
• Swing-out achromatic condenser core (NA 1.20) with integrated iris diaphragm
• Dedicated vertical photo port tower with selectable 100:0 / 0:100 optical beam splitter
• Coaxial focus mechanics with calibrated 1-micrometer (0.001 mm) fine division markings
• Substantial 11.5 kg structural base metal weight provides rock-solid bench stability

Modular IOS Architecture & Ceramic Belt-Driven Stage

Core facilities require hardware that adapts to evolving analytical needs. The B-1000 chassis provides a rigid optical corridor that supports custom objective selections, phase contrast sliders, or darkfield condensers. The ceramic stage coating resists abrasive glass edges and harsh staining solvents, while the internal belt-drive mechanism eliminates the clothing snags and hand scratches caused by exposed metal racks.

100W Light Engine & 1-Micron Focus Precision

The high-output 100W transmitted illumination block provides abundant photon density for dense tissue specimens and high-magnification photomicrography. Digital memory circuits recall illumination levels automatically, while the swing-out condenser ensures homogeneous illumination across large scanning fields. The coaxial fine focus operates with 1-micron sensitivity, giving pathologists delicate control over thin tissue sections.

• Modular frame allows customized lens selection for specific pathology protocols
• Ceramic-coated belt-driven stage prevents hand injuries and resists chemical staining
• Selectable beam splitter allows 100% light transfer to digital cameras for low-noise capture
