Hund Wetzlar H600/12 Microscope

• Used for detailed observation of biological samples, tissue cultures, and microscopic organisms in laboratory settings.
• Suitable for educational purposes in universities and colleges for teaching microscopy techniques.
• Employed in clinical diagnostics for examining blood smears, pathological samples, and microbiological cultures.
• Utilised in research and development for material science, quality control, and general scientific investigation.

Optical System

Typically features a 160 mm tube length system, supporting brightfield, darkfield, and phase contrast, with some models offering incident fluorescence.

Magnification Range

Commonly provides a total magnification range from 100x to 1000x, depending on objective and eyepiece combination.

Illumination

Integrated 12 V / 30 W halogen lamp with continuous brightness control is typical; LED or HBO fluorescence options may be found on some units.

Eyepieces

Binocular tube with a 30° viewing angle is standard, often equipped with wide-field eyepieces (e.g., 10x/18 or 10x/20).

Objectives

Typically includes a set of plan or achromatic objectives, such as 10x, 20x, 40x phase, and 100x oil immersion.

Stage

Features a mechanical stage, commonly around 160 x 130 mm, with coaxial coarse and fine focusing controls.

Power Supply

Operates on standard mains voltage, typically 230 V, 50 Hz for the UK market, with an integrated power supply for the illumination system.
