Nikon's Eclipse polarizing microscopes are renowned for their abilitiy to produce brighter, clearer, and higher contrast images. The LV100N POL, available in diascopic and episcopic microscope illumination types, continues this tradition and offers a completely reengineered base for even easier operation. The newly developed high-intensity 50W halogen light source is brighter than a conventional 100W halogen lamp. Low power consumption means less heat generation, thereby reducing the chance of heat-induced focus drift.

Diascopic (Transmitted) Light Source

The new high intensity 50W halogen light source incorporates a fly-eye lens design that outputs more light than a 100W lamp. The greater brightness is achieved by optimizing the lamp filament size and optically expanding the size of the light source within the pupil illumination fulfillment.

Lead and Arsenic Free Objective Lenses

The new CFI LU Plan Fluor EPI P objective series uses eco-glass that is manufactured to the same specifications as Nikon's proprietary infinity optics (CFI60) system, but without harmful substances such as lead and arsenic.
