Frequently asked questions
What head configurations are available?
The Unico IP755 is available with two types of versatile Seidentopf head configurations to meet different laboratory needs:
- Binocular Head (IP755): This configuration is standard, optimized for comfortable, direct viewing and observation.
- Trinocular Head (IP755T): This option is designed for digital capture and documentation, featuring an 80/20 beam splitter to integrate an external camera or imaging system easily.
Both heads are built for ergonomic use during prolonged observation sessions, including:
- Full 360° rotation for flexible positioning.
- Adjustable Interpupillary Distance (IPD) from 55 mm to 75 mm.
- They utilize 10x/20mm Widefield or 15X Widefield eyepieces (user selectable).
Is it equipped with Infinity Plan Phase objectives?
Yes, the Unico IP755 utilizes High-End Infinity Plan Optics designed for superior image clarity, flat fields of view, and aberration correction, which is essential for advanced microscopy.
The system includes a full set of precision objectives mounted on a durable 4-hole reverse nosepiece:
- 4X Infinity Plan (Standard Brightfield)
- 10X Infinity Plan Phase
- 40XR Infinity Plan Phase
- 100XR Infinity Plan Phase
These objectives enable versatile phase contrast microscopy, allowing for detailed viewing of transparent or phase-shifting specimens.
Is Koehler illumination included?
Yes, the Unico IP755 is equipped with a Built-In Illuminator that supports Koehler Type Illumination. This advanced illumination type is essential for achieving optimal contrast, clarity, and high-resolution imaging, particularly when utilizing the Infinity Plan Phase objectives.
Key components of the illumination system include:
- Field Diaphragm: The illuminator includes a field diaphragm, which is necessary for proper Koehler alignment.
- Condenser: A focusable and centerable Abbe Condenser (NA 1.25) is integrated, featuring a graduated iris diaphragm and filter holder for light and aperture control.
- Brightness Control: Illumination intensity is adjustable via a Variable Intensity Rheostat Wheel located on the base of the microscope.
The system’s electrical parts are UL & CSA approved and designed for universal voltage input (110V-60Hz to 240V-50Hz).
Is the IP755 suitable for viewing cellular structures?
Yes, the Unico IP755 is highly suitable for detailed observation of cellular structures, microorganisms, and other transparent or unstained specimens. It is engineered specifically for advanced laboratory and research applications.
This capability stems from specialized optical features:
- Infinity Plan Phase Objectives: The system includes 10X, 40XR, and 100XR (oil immersion) Infinity Plan Phase objectives. Phase contrast is crucial for achieving high contrast and detail when viewing living or unstained cells.
- High-End Infinity Optics: These optics deliver superior image clarity and ensure a flat field of view across all magnifications, enhancing the visibility of fine cellular details.
- Koehler Illumination System: Featuring a field diaphragm and a focusable/centerable Abbe Condenser (NA 1.25), the built-in Koehler illumination provides the uniform, high-intensity light distribution necessary for optimal performance, especially at high magnification.
Does it include high-quality widefield eyepieces?
Yes, the Unico IP755 is equipped with high-quality High Eyepoint Widefield eyepieces, designed for excellent clarity and user comfort during extended observation.
Key viewing system features include:
- Eyepiece Options: Standard configurations offer either the 10x/20mm or 15X widefield eyepieces.
- Ergonomics: The eyepieces are fitted to a 360° rotatable Seidentopf head, featuring diopter adjustment and an adjustable interpupillary distance (55–75mm).
Does the head offer ergonomic adjustments?
The Seidentopf head of the Unico IP755 is designed for user comfort and flexibility, featuring two key adjustments:
- Interpupillary Distance (IPD): The distance between the eyepieces is fully adjustable from 55 mm to 75 mm to ensure a custom, comfortable fit.
- 360° Rotation: The head can be rotated a full 360° for convenient shared viewing or customized positioning during long observation periods.
What is the travel range of the mechanical stage?
The built-in mechanical stage has an X-Y travel range of 76 mm x 50 mm, graduated in 0.1 mm.
Does this microscope use universal voltage?
The Unico IP755 is designed for international versatility, featuring universal voltage compatibility.
It operates seamlessly across power inputs from 110V-60Hz to 240V-50Hz.
Additionally, all electrical parts are UL & CSA Approved, ensuring high standards of safety and compliance.
Is the focusing system highly precise?
Yes, the Unico IP755 is engineered for highly precise control and user comfort. It utilizes an ergonomic low-position coaxial coarse and fine focusing system.
- Precision: The fine focus knob is exceptionally accurate, graduated in 0.002 mm increments for micro-level adjustments necessary for detailed observation.
- Ergonomics: The low-position controls and inclusion of coarse focus tension control minimize operational strain, making the microscope suitable for prolonged use.
Is this an advanced phase contrast microscope?
Yes, the Unico IP755 is an Advanced Infinity Plan Phase Microscope, designed for high-level laboratory and research environments.
Its advanced capabilities are based on several key features:
- Specialized Optics: It utilizes high-end Infinity Plan Phase Objectives (10X, 40XR, 100XR) to deliver superior image clarity and a perfectly flat field of view, essential for professional phase contrast observation.
- Optimal Illumination: The built-in illumination system provides Koehler Type Illumination, which is crucial for achieving high contrast and resolution necessary for viewing transparent or living specimens without staining.
- High Precision Focusing: The ergonomic, low-position coaxial focus system offers exceptional control, with a fine focus graduation of 0.002 mm for accurate focusing at high magnifications.
- Trinocular Option: The microscope is available in a trinocular configuration (IP755T), which includes an 80/20 beam splitter for easy attachment of digital imaging systems.
