WILOVERT

INVERTED
MICROSCOPES

have gradually become
an indispensable tool in many laboratories where living material is examined.
Also, they are being increasingly upgraded into highly specialized systems
for certain routine applications and particular research developments. The
new Wilovert microscopes are especially designed
for this trend, featuring:

HIGH
STABILITY AND ERGONOMY

The
entire U-shaped body of the Wilovert consists of
one cast part, which provides optimal conditions for high stability.
Micromanipulators can easily be adapted to any microscope in the Wilovert series.

WIDE
CHOICE OF LIGHT SOURCES

Besides
the 6V / 20W and the 6V / 30 W halogen lamps there is also a choice of 12V /
50W or 12V/100W lamps which can also be adapted from the outside. For
fluorescence work we offer HBO 50W or HBO 100W mercury lamps.

OPTICS

Objectives

As
inverted microscope specimens are examined in tissue culture vessels of
different heights, base thicknesses and materials, as opposed to the standard
specimen slides and coverglasses used for upright
microscopes, special optics are required. Hund
offers objectives and matching condensers with long free working distances.

CONDENSERS

There
are the following condensers to choose from:

•
Condenser NA 0.25 for transmitted light brightfield
with 58 mm free working distance.

•
Combined condenser NA 0.25 with 58 mm free working distance for transmitted
light brightfield and phase contrast.

•
Condenser NA 0.4 for transmitted light brightfield
with 55 mm free working distance.

•
Combined condenser NA 0.4 with 38 mm free working distance for transmitted
light brightfield and phase contrast.

HOLDERS
FOR CULTURE VESSELS

Frequently
used culture vessels such as petri dishes, tissue culture vessels, microtest
trays and microtiter trays are inserted in special
holding frames on Wilovert microscopes. The object
guide ensures that specimens are completely scanned.

and microinjectors

IMAGE
DOCUMENTATION

The
following accessories can be used for documenting microscope images:

–
Photographic systems

–
Video systems

–
Image archiving

There
is a choice of two different binocular phototubes for adapting the
documentary equipment via standard components.

BINOCULAR
PHOTOTUBES

Binocular
phototube 70/30

70%
of the light is directed to the photographic or video

camera, 30%
to the eyepieces for simultaneous viewing.

Binocular
phototube 100/100

The
light can either be fully directed to the eyepieces or to the connected
documentary equipment. This is a particular advantage for dark images as the
full light intensity is available.

Video
cameras are connected via C-mount adapter.
