Інструкцыя па наладзе

Follow these steps to set up your EXC-350 microscope for initial use:

  1. Unpack the Microscope: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Place the main microscope body on a stable, level surface away from direct sunlight and vibrations.
  2. Усталюйце Viewкіраўнік: Gently place the trinocular viewing head onto the top of the microscope body. Secure it by tightening the set screw, if present, to prevent rotation.
  3. Устаўце акуляры: Insert the WF 10x/20mm eyepieces into the eyepiece tubes of the viewing head. Ensure they are fully seated.
  4. Attach Objectives: Screw the Infinity Plan Achromat objectives (4x, 10x, 40xR, 100xR oil) into the nosepiece in ascending order of magnification (e.g., 4x, 10x, 40x, 100x). Ensure they are securely tightened.
  5. Падключыце харчаванне: Locate the power input port at the rear of the microscope. Connect the provided power cord to the microscope and then to a suitable 110v-240v AC power outlet.

Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі

This section details the operation of your EXC-350 microscope for optimal viewінж.

  1. Power On and Illumination: Turn on the microscope using the power switch. Adjust the 3-watt LED illumination intensity using the variable control knob to achieve comfortable brightness for your sampле.
  2. Адрэгулюйце Viewкіраўнік: The trinocular Siedentopf head can be inclined 30° and rotated 360°. The eyepoint height can be adjusted by 180° rotation of the binocular tube to accommodate different users.
  3. Set Interpupillary Distance: While looking through the eyepieces, adjust the interpupillary distance (50mm-75mm) until you see a single, clear circular field of view.
  4. Рэгуляванне дыёптрый: If your eyepieces have diopter adjustments, adjust them for individual eye focus. Typically, you focus with one eye (e.g., right eye) using the coarse and fine focus knobs, then adjust the diopter on the other eyepiece (e.g., left eye) until that eye is also in focus, without touching the main focus knobs.
  5. Place Specimen: Place your prepared slide onto the mechanical stagе, замацоўваючы яго з дапамогай stage clips. Use the X-Y movement knobs to position the specimen directly over the condenser's light path.
  6. Select Objective: Rotate the rear-facing quintuple nosepiece to select the desired objective lens (e.g., 4x for initial scanning). Ensure the objective clicks firmly into place.
  7. Факусоўка: Use the coaxial focusing system. Begin with the coarse focus knob to bring the specimen into approximate focus. Then, use the fine focus knob for precise focusing. The upper limit stop prevents accidental damage to slides and objectives.
  8. Condenser and Iris Diaphragm: Adjust the Abbe condenser (NA 1.25) using its rack and pinion mechanism to optimize illumination. Open or close the iris diaphragm to control contrast and resolution.
  9. Light Path Selector: Use the two-position light path selector to direct light: 100% to eyepieces for observation, or 80% to eyepieces and 20% to the camera port for imaging.

Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your microscope.

  • Чыстка оптыкі: Use only specialized lens cleaning paper and solution for objectives and eyepieces. For oil immersion objectives (100xR oil), clean off immersion oil immediately after use to prevent residue buildup.
  • Абарона ад пылу: Always cover the microscope with the provided dust cover when not in use to protect it from dust and debris.
  • Генеральная ўборка: Працірайце корпус мікраскопа мяккай сухой тканінай. Пазбягайце выкарыстання агрэсіўных хімікатаў або абразіўных ачышчальнікаў.
  • Святлодыёдная лямпа: The 3-watt LED bulb is rated for over 25,000 hours of continued use and typically does not require frequent replacement. If replacement is needed, consult a qualified technician or the manufacturer.
  • захоўванне: Захоўвайце мікраскоп у прахалодным, сухім месцы, удалечыні ад прамых сонечных прамянёў і экстрэмальных тэмператур.

Ліквідацыю непаладак

У гэтым раздзеле прадстаўлены рашэнні распаўсюджаных праблем, з якімі вы можаце сутыкнуцца.

  • Няма падсветкі:
    • Check if the power cord is securely connected to both the microscope and the power outlet.
    • Пераканайцеся, што выключальнік харчавання знаходзіцца ў становішчы «ON».
    • Verify the illumination intensity knob is turned up.
  • Выява размытая або не ў фокусе:
    • Адрэгулюйце ручкі грубай і тонкай факусоўкі.
    • Ensure the objective lens is fully clicked into position.
    • Check if the specimen slide is placed correctly on the stage.
    • For 100x oil immersion objective, ensure immersion oil is applied correctly.
    • Adjust interpupillary distance and diopter settings for your eyes.
  • Поле в View is Dark or Uneven:
    • Adjust the condenser height.
    • Open the iris diaphragm.
    • Ensure the light path selector is set correctly (e.g., 100% to eyepieces).
    • Check if the objective lens is clean.
