Introducing The Premiere 260
The Premiere 260 microscope (available with Binocular or Trinocular Head) is the Achromat (Finite) version of our very popular Premiere 1600 Infinity Plan microscope and supersedes our Premiere 250. It offers exceptional value for money with its robust build, modern ergonomic features and high specifications. It is ideal for the small to medium size practice laboratory where a variety of procedures are required on a frequent basis.
Notable features are its Seidentopf binocular head with a diopter focusing ring on each eye- tube which make binocular focusing a lot easier for people with unequal eye focus ability; four forward facing, high quality achromat objectives which give a field of view larger than normal; a large mechanical stage and a powerful 3 watt LED built -in illumination system.
The Vetlab Premiere 260 also has a battery compartment and can be used if there is a power cut or in remote locations where no electricity is available.
Upgrades are available in the form of a pair of Plan 10X / 20mm wide field of view eyepieces with rubber eye guards enhancing your viewing experience, and a 60X dry objective which can be used for viewing stained blood smears without the need for messy oil! For those wishing to perform semen analysis there is an option to fit a heated stage.
A Trinocular version is also available for photomicrography/teaching applications.
The Vetlab Premiere 260 is supplied with a full 2-year warranty & free consumables pack to get you started.
Powerful LED Illumination
New innovative techniques for creating white light with an LED source have resulted in a completely new and unique path in imaging. The use of this light source in LED microscopy means firstly, by optimising the image this way, much more detail of the sample can immediately be seen, and secondly, the heat emission levels are kept very low.
The powerful LED illumination gives perfect image quality which provides up to 50,000 hours of use. The 3W light source is one of the most powerful available and provides an excellent source of bright white light which is perfect for microscopy image quality and photography. Bringing all the advantages of LED technology, as well as a comfortable viewing position during long periods of microscopy examinations, this microscope will stand the test of time in any laboratory.
Cutting-edge Design – Available with a Binocular Head
With its stylish, cutting-edge design, this professional LED microscope will not fail to impress, with the superb quality of its images, as well as its ease of use. In addition to its powerful LED light source, there are four Achromat objectives fitted as standard: 4X, 10X, 40X and 100X, which are all spring-loaded. Finally, it has a mechanical stage – and height – adjustable Abbe condenser.
