Frequently asked questions
What Unico microscope series are these objectives compatible with?
These DIN Plan Achromat Objectives are specifically designed for broad compatibility across several Unico microscope platforms:
- G380/G390 Series
- G500 Series
- H600 Series
Please note that specific objective configurations (magnification options) are tailored for either the G380/H600 line or the G500 line.
Are these optical components factory new?
Yes, all objectives in this product line are supplied as Factory New inventory.
This ensures you receive precision-engineered optical components in pristine condition, directly from the manufacturer. The factory new condition is backed by a standard 1-Year Warranty.
Do the high-power objectives have retractable lenses?
Yes, certain high-magnification objectives are equipped with a retractable front lens mechanism. This essential safety feature protects both the objective and the specimen slide from potential damage during focusing or stage movement. These are available for variants compatible with the Unico G380/G390 and H600 Series microscopes.
The magnifications that include this retractable feature are:
- 40X objective
- 50X objective
- 100X objective
What is the available magnification range?
The Unico DIN Plan Achromat Objectives are available across a comprehensive magnification range, spanning from 4X up to 100X. This variety caters to diverse visualization requirements in laboratory settings. These are the available options:
- 4X
- 10X
- 20X
- 25X
- 40X
- 50X
- 100X
Retractable Lens Feature
For higher magnification viewing, certain models are equipped with a protective retractable front lens mechanism to prevent damage from accidental contact with the specimen slide during focusing. This feature is specifically included on the 40X, 50X, and 100X objectives designed for use with the G380/G390 and H600 Series microscopes.
Which high-power objectives include a retractable lens?
The retractable front lens is a key safety feature designed to prevent accidental damage to the objective’s delicate optics and the specimen slide, especially when focusing at high power.
This protective design is incorporated into objectives compatible with the Unico G380/G390 and H600 Series microscopes at the following specific magnifications:
- 40X
- 50X
- 100X
This feature is not listed for objectives compatible with the Unico G500 Series.
Do these objectives feature Plan Achromat optics?
Yes, these are Unico DIN Plan Achromat Objectives, engineered for high-quality professional laboratory and research use. The Plan Achromat design provides significant optical benefits by ensuring superior image correction.
Key features include:
- Flat Field Correction: Minimizes field curvature to deliver sharp, corrected images across the entire field of view.
- Magnification Range: Available in a wide selection from 4X up to 100X to suit diverse viewing requirements.
- Retractable Protection: Specific high-power variants (40X, 50X, and 100X for G380/G390 & H600 series) include a retractable front lens mechanism to protect the objective and specimen slide from damage during focusing.
- Compatibility: Designed for seamless use with Unico G380/G390, G500, and H600 Series microscopes.
Does the Plan Achromat design ensure sharp images?
Yes, the Plan Achromat design is a key feature that provides high-quality, flat-field imaging essential for precision microscopy.
This correction system works by addressing two major optical issues:
- Flat Field Correction (Plan): This corrects for field curvature, guaranteeing that the image remains sharp and in focus across the entire field of view, not just the center.
- Chromatic Correction (Achromat): This minimizes chromatic aberration (color fringing), resulting in clearer images with more accurate color representation.
How do these objectives enhance microscope performance?
The Unico DIN Plan Achromat Objectives significantly improve your microscope’s performance by providing a flat field of view that minimizes distortion, ensuring your entire image is in focus. They also effectively correct for chromatic aberrations, which leads to sharper images with enhanced clarity and accurate color representation.
Are these objectives compatible with other microscope brands?
No, these Unico DIN Plan Achromat Objectives are specifically designed for use with Unico’s G380/G390, G500, and H600 Series microscopes. This ensures a seamless fit and optimal performance.
Do the high-magnification objectives have a retractable lens?
Yes, the high-magnification objectives are equipped with a retractable front lens mechanism. This feature is crucial for protecting both the objective optics and the specimen slide from accidental contact and damage during focusing.
This retractable design is included on the following magnifications for the Unico G380/G390 and H600 Series microscopes:
- 40X
- 50X
- 100X
