pengenalan

The AmScope B120C binocular compound microscope is engineered for educational, clinical, and laboratory applications. It is an ideal instrument for students and professionals in medical and biological fields. This microscope features a professional Siedentopf binocular head, a double-layer mechanical stage, coaxial coarse and fine focusing, and LED illumination. It offers six magnification settings ranging from 40x to 2500x, making it suitable for detailed biological, pharmaceutical, and bacteriological research.

This manual provides essential information for the proper setup, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of your AmScope B120C microscope to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Persediaan dan Perhimpunan

Upon unboxing, carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure all parts are present and undamaged before proceeding with assembly.

Langkah Persediaan Awal:

  1. Membongkar: Gently remove the microscope body, binocular head, eyepieces, objectives, and power cord from their protective packaging.
  2. Attaching the Binocular Head: Loosen the head locking screw on the top of the microscope body. Carefully insert the binocular head into the top port, ensuring it is fully seated. Tighten the locking screw to secure the head.
  3. Memasukkan kanta mata: Insert the WF10X and WF25X widefield eyepieces into the eyepiece tubes of the binocular head.
  4. Installing Objectives: Rotate the revolving nosepiece to expose the empty objective ports. Screw in the 4x, 10x, 40x (S), and 100x (S, oil) achromatic objectives into the nosepiece in ascending order of magnification.
  5. Sambungan Kuasa: Connect the power cord to the microscope's power input and then to a 240 Volt AC power outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the OFF position before connecting.
  6. Melaraskan Jarak Interpupillary: While looking through the eyepieces, adjust the distance between the eyepiece tubes by moving them closer or further apart until a single, clear circular field of view diperhatikan.
  7. Pelarasan Diopter: If one eye is dominant or has different vision, use the diopter adjustment ring on one of the eyepiece tubes to fine-tune focus for that eye after focusing with the other eye.

Arahan Operasi

Binocular Head Rotation:

The Siedentopf binocular head can be rotated 360 degrees and is inclined at 30 degrees for comfortable viewing, reducing neck strain during prolonged use.

Tetapan Pembesaran:

The microscope provides six widefield magnification settings by combining the WF10X and WF25X eyepieces with the 4x, 10x, 40x, and 100x objectives:

  • 40x (10x eyepiece x 4x objective)
  • 100x (10x eyepiece x 10x objective)
  • 250x (25x eyepiece x 10x objective)
  • 400x (10x eyepiece x 40x objective)
  • 1000x (10x eyepiece x 100x objective)
  • 2500x (25x eyepiece x 100x objective)

Mekanikal Stage and Focusing:

The double-layer mechanical stage allows for smooth and precise movement of specimen slides. Use the coaxial coarse and fine focus knobs located on both sides of the microscope for accurate focusing.

  • Tombol Fokus Kasar: Used for large adjustments to bring the specimen into approximate focus.
  • Tombol Fokus Halus: Used for small, precise adjustments to achieve sharp focus.
  • Stage Lock: A stage locking device protects objectives and slides from accidental contact.

Sistem Pencahayaan LED:

The microscope features powerful LED transmitted illumination with variable intensity. The light source is daylight balanced to produce natural colors for imaging, improving contrast and resolution.

  • Abbe Condenser: The NA1.25 Abbe condenser with an iris diaphragm and filters allows for precise control over the illumination aperture and contrast.
  • Rack and Pinion Adjustment: The condenser can be adjusted vertically using a rack and pinion mechanism.

Penyelenggaraan dan Penjagaan

Penyelenggaraan yang betul memastikan jangka hayat dan prestasi optimum mikroskop anda.

  • Pembersihan Optik: Use only specialized lens cleaning paper and lens cleaning solution for objectives and eyepieces. Never touch optical surfaces with bare fingers. Dust can be removed with a soft brush or air blower.
  • Pembersihan Badan: Lap badan mikroskop dengan kain lembut,amp kain. Elakkan menggunakan bahan kimia yang keras atau pembersih yang kasar.
  • Storan: When not in use, cover the microscope with a dust cover to protect it from dust and debris. Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • Bulb Recycling: For information on recycling the LED bulb, please refer to local regulations and guidelines for electronic waste.
  • Broken Bulb Handling: In the event of a broken bulb, exercise caution. Do not touch broken glass directly. Refer to local guidelines for safe cleanup and disposal of broken lamps.
