Motic BA310 Professional Light Microscope

The Motic BA310 is designed for the rigors of daily routine work in the demanding applications of Professional Cytology, Hematology and Pathology laboratory settings. Motic's CCIS^® Optics (Color Corrected Infinity System) with newly designed EF-N Plan objectives provides high resolution and excellent optical performance for all microscopy needs. The BA310 is upgradeable to include additional contrast methods and multi head viewing. These features ensure this model will offer long term functionality to all user levels in a variety of applications.

The BA310 is a superior microscope meeting the rugged demands for daily work needs in a Professional laboratory setting. The BA310's 30W illumination provides the user with a powerful and adjustable light source to meet both delicate and detailed lighting requirements for all sample types. The fully featured Koehler illumination of the BA310 helps in highlighting even the weakest stained specimens.

Motic's Color Corrected Infinity Optics CCIS^® and the EF-N Plan Achromat objectives provide optimal image contrast through newly designed multi-layer lens coatings. The fully corrected tube lens and subsequent intermediate image without color fringing is now fully accessible through both eyepiece and the trinocular port making digital images as crisp and clear as those seen through the eyepieces. The BA310's design also includes a standardized (DIN/ISO) photoport exit. The BA310's large, hard coated and chemical resistant stage, with an expansive 76x50mm travel range, includes a new slide holder with improved tighter grip. This ensures easy and repeatable scanning of numerous slides in all daily routines. A complete range of options and accessories are available to configure the BA310 to your application. See all options available on the BA310 Microscope Systems Diagram .

Trinocular Head

Siedentopf Observation Tube The BA310's sidentopf observation tube is designed with an ergonomic viewing angle of 30° and incorporating an interpupillary distance of 55-75mm. The BA310's observation tubes guarantee fatigue free viewing for hours. An optional large field of view (20mm) enables fast and comfortable screening of a specimen. The trinocular tubes allow digital documentation and integration to a wide variety of digital cameras, with optional 20/80 or 0/100 light splits for the trinocular exit.

Eyepieces The standard eyepieces are made of high quality optical glass and have a high-eyepoint for eyeglass wearers. The eyepieces provide consistent diopter adjustments for both eyes. This enables perfect usage of reticles for measuring, counting, etc. Standard lockable eyepieces guard against inadmissible removal.

Reversed Quintuple Turret Revolving Nosepiece The BA310 has the capability for mounting up to five quality objectives, allowing easy access to the slide. Precision positive click-stop mechanism ensures precise alignment of objectives. Objectives To improve overall optical performance of the BA310, Motic introduces a newly designed generation of Plan Achromatic Objectives made of high quality optical glass: CCIS® EF-N Plan. These new lenses are now multilayer coated for improved contrast to enhance images even with weak slide staining. Together with a newly calculated tube lens, the result is a fully coated, perfected intermediate image without colored fringes. The trinocular BA310 gives digital access to the same for even sharper imaging and improved digital output quality for professional results at the student level

Fine/Coarse Coaxial Focusing

Coaxial fine and course focusing mechanism is precision brass manufactured using a reliable triangular rail system, with adjustable tension, providing durable operation of the microscope. The focusing range is 25mm with minimum increments of 2µm.

Condenser To ensure the best possible illumination quality, the Digital BA310 has a full Koehler feature giving complete freedom to set the height of the condenser, so counting chambers with unusual height dimensions can be used.

Illumination The BA310 introduces a new collector lens assembly with a secure, threaded holder for the frequently used blue daylight filter, which is an integral part of the illumination package. The fixed cap prevents the filter from dropping and breaking when the instrument is moved or stored. The BA310 offers two illumination options to use on the microscope- 6V/30W Halogen or 3W LED.

Mechanical Stage The BA310 offers an optional left/right hand control and the slide holder enables consistent sample movement across a 76x50mm range with a stage of 175mm x 145mm. The BA310 also offers a hard coated surface, resistant against routine usage abrasion and most lab chemicals.

Light source with integrated power supply

The universal power supply (100-240V) is integrated inside the frame for increased stability. The 6V/30W halogen lamp with intensity controls provides bright and even illumination at any magnification. Alternatively, a bright white 3W LED illumination is available.

Anti-Fungus Coating

To protect the system from fungus formation in high-humidity environments, an anti-fungus coating is used to prolong the life of both microscope and objectives.

Multi Viewing Devices The Motic BA310 offers multi-viewing devices for teaching especially in Pathology and Histology. For BA310 model, 2 options are available. Depending on the teaching situation in your laboratory, MVH-2 can be realized as a face-to-face or a side by- side solution. With a viewing field of 20mm provided by the Motic BA310's widefield eyepieces, maximum information will be given to the observer. Pointers provided in red and green color.

Simple Phase Contrast Offered as an option, simple phase contrast is available for magnification 10x and 40x.

Phase Contrast

Also available is the 5-position turret type phase contrast condenser and CCIS phase plan objectives.

Simple Darkfield Darkfield is possible with a separate DF slider.

Simple Polarization Convenient and simple, the BA310 polarization system consists of an analyzer filter placed between the head and body; and a polarizer filter placed on top of the collector lens.

Documentation

The importance of documentation has expanded into every aspect of microscopy, as has the method of documentation. The BA310 is available with both a traditional method (photomicrography) and a digital method.

Standard Photomicrography Selecting the trinocular version of the BA310 allows the user to capture the images observed through a photomicrography system. The system consists of a mechanical adaptation combined with a photo eyepiece (2.5X or 4X) The T2 adapter referring to the camera model is supplied by the camera manufacturer. Digital Documentation The integration of the BA310 trinocular microscope and Moticam series of digital cameras delivers crisp and live images. All Moticams come equipped with software to transfer the BA310 into an analysis and documentation station. With a USB2.0 output to the computer, the system provides high resolution imaging in both real time and capture modes. Should you select a third-party camera, Motic provides a range of CCD-adapters covering all demands for field vs. resolution. Another digitalisation option is the BA310 digital head. Conventional For further information, please refer to the BA310 Digital brochures on our website.

Key Improvements on BA310

• The WF10x/20 eyepieces are non-compensated, removing the yellow fringe.
• A Siedentopf Head with chromatic compensated tube lens, therefore the image at the trinocular port is also compensated.
• New lead free and multi-layer coating EF-N Plan objectives with a new sleeve.
• New capabilities for stage movement either with the right or left hand.
• A new stage with a new slide holder. The slide holder for the BA310 has a wider slide holder fixing screw distance to fix the holder firmer. There is also a smoother surface paint and finish to improve scratch resistance.
• Has removed the stage position lock. This improves flexibility to view specimens contained in different kinds of sample holders.
• A newly designed condenser.
• Now comes with a condenser position lock for fixed-Koehler illumination for optimal light intensity.
• A new stage and condenser support assembly to increase the movement range for the condenser. The upper position of the condenser can be adjusted to within 1mm from the specimen to avoid formation of the ground glass image on the image plane. It also prevents the left hand control knob from getting too close to the condenser focusing knob and interfering with its operation.
• A newly designed coarse focusing knob mechanism.
• A new collector with a filter lock. The blue filter can be fixed onto the collector lens by a screw cap to protect the filter from being removed or dropped and broken during system movement.
• A new lamp module for increased light intensity and improved heat dispersion.
• A newly designed arm stand with new rubber feet. The new rubber feet are made of softer material to reduce vibration from the work environment.
• A new white body color giving a better impression as professional laboratory equipment with model name and a new logo.
• A new ISO adapter with a 38mm diameter.
• Many accessories are compatible with the new BA310 including 2.5x and 4x photoeyepieces, a turret phase condenser, CCIS PL PH objective, centering telescope, multiviewer head(side by side or face to face), phases sliders, darkfield sliders, polarizer and analyzer.
