Description

Levenhuk 5S NG Microscope is an entry-level optical tool that is excellent for studies or scientific hobby. It will be wonderful for a child, a middle school- or high school-aged student. With Levenhuk 5S NG Microscope, you can perform laboratory work in biology, carry out scientific experiments at home, and explore the micro world. The microscope provides up to 500x magnification that ensures a wonderful image of single-celled organisms. This magnification is enough for exploring prepared microscope slides.

Levenhuk 5S NG Microscope is a simple, reliable and safe optical instrument. A mirror is used for illumination of the microscope slides. It does not require electrical power or AC supply, so a kid will not come in contact with electricity. You can leave a young explorer alone without worrying about his or her safety. A diaphragm disk adjustment is used for the illumination intensity control.

All of the microscope’s optical elements are made of glass and are protected by a durable metal body. The revolving nosepiece is designed for three objective lenses and rotates easily. The monocular nosepiece allows for changing the eyepieces to achieve appropriate magnification. The stage is equipped with standard stage clips. You can adjust sharpness with the fine and coarse focusing knobs.
