Nikon ECLIPSE 80i Microscope: Optical excellence for cutting-edge laboratories
The Nikon ECLIPSE 80i microscope is one of the most powerful upright microscopes in its class, specially designed to offer unrivalled precision in cell and tissue observation. Designed for scientific researchers, pathologists and cell biologists, it enables detailed analysis in transmitted light (daskopic) and reflected light (episcopic) modes, with optimal performance in fluorescence microscopy.
Its modular design can be adapted to a wide range of configurations, offering exceptional flexibility of use. Whether in standard configuration, with an ergonomic binocular tube or with a fluorescence unit, the ECLIPSE 80i can be adapted to any experimental protocol thanks to its specialised accessories and customisation options.
Equipped with a high-resolution optical system, this microscope uses interchangeable plan achromatic or plan fluorite objectives as required. The illumination system is based on a powerful light source compatible with halogen, mercury or xenon lamps, depending on the light intensity and wavelength requirements. The optical path is optimised by precisely adjustable field and aperture diaphragms, ensuring sharp, high-contrast images.
In addition to its optical qualities, the ECLIPSE 80i stands out for its ergonomic design, which is focused on user comfort. It features a coaxial focus system with gear reduction, smooth torque adjustment and a stable, adjustable sample holder. Its robust structure, weighing approximately 12 kg, ensures optimum stability during observations, reducing vibrations and ensuring consistent reliability.
This microscope can also be integrated into state-of-the-art digital imaging systems. It can be equipped with a digital camera head, a DSC port and image capture software, enabling precise imaging, digital archiving and computerised analysis of the observed data.
Safety and durability are at the heart of its design. The system includes multiple precautions against overheating, biological hazards and UV exposure (in fluorescence). Locking devices, safety filters and safe lamp replacement protocols are integrated for risk-free daily use.
The Nikon ECLIPSE 80i microscope is much more than an observation instrument: it is a reliable partner for researchers seeking accurate, reproducible and visually exceptional results.
