Carl Zeiss Primo Star: The Student's Microscope

Primo Star Carl Zeiss Microscope.jpg

The new Primo Star student microscopes from Carl Zeiss are offered in ten configurations and built to withstand "extensive use and rough handling". 'Ideally designed for educational use, Primo Star offers numerous innovative solutions: a modular illumination concept was developed with the choice between a 30 W halogen bulb, LED and the tilting mirror. This means that, for the very first time in this instrument class, it is possible to switch between the various types of illumination, with easy, convenient replacement of used bulbs. The control display on both sides of the stand provides information about the light intensity of the microscope - even from a distance of several meters.

The integrated carrying handle allows simple, safe transportation from the lab bench to the storage cabinet. The external arrangement of the power supply unit in the rear panel allows easy replacement in the event of damage and ensures tidy stowing of the supply cable. Further benefits include the ergonomically correct Siedentopf tube with two different viewing heights, the variable interocular distance between 48 mm and 75 mm, reversed nosepiece, course focus with friction control and fine focus with jog/shuttle knob on the right side of the stand.'
