Illumination
Employment of high-intensity LED illumination (Eco-illumination)
Compared to conventional halogen illumination, these high intensity LED sources need only about one third of consuming electricity and last approximately 30 times longer. The MA100N ensures stable sample observation with uniform color temperature even in different light intensity.
Stage
Controlled stability even with heavy samples/ Boasts superior durability
The MA-SR-N Rectangular Stage was developed especially for the MA100N. The three-plate structure allows for observation of heavy samples, such as a grinder resin mounted samples.
Compact Body
Redesigned to be smaller
Designed for LED illumination, the footprint is 11% smaller than conventional models, allowing users to have more installation choices.
Aperture Diaphragm
Standard with MA100N
The epi illuminator comes standard with a variable aperture diaphragm to control image contrast and depth of field.
Accessories
Basic stage set
A triple-platform stage structure lets you use heavy samples.
