ZEISS Axio Scope A1 Used Fluorescence Microscope

This Axio Scope A1 System manufactured by Zeiss is configured for fluorescence applications. This system was used over the course for about a year for customer demonstrations. The optics are fully functional, and the system has been cleaned.

• Objective Lenses: Infinity corrected N-Achroplan 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x oil, 100x oil objectives. 
  • N-Achroplan 5x/0.15, WD = 12mm
  • N-Achroplan 10x/0.25, WD = 6.5mm
    
  • N-Achroplan 20x/0.45, WD = 0.63mm
  • N-Achroplan 50x/1.0 Oil, WD = 0.22
    
  • N-Achroplan 100x/1.25 Oil, WD = 0.29mm
    
• Viewing Head: Ergonomic head allows the eyepieces to be adjusted between 5 and 30º of inclination. FN = 23. Upright image with prism switch and 100:0/ 0:100 light to camera/ eyepieces. Camera port has interface 60N.
