Material Surface Examination

The microscope can be used to observe surface textures and visible features of suitable materials.

Laboratory Specimen Preparation

The stereoscopic viewing arrangement and 60 mm working distance support observation and positioning of suitable small specimens during preparation tasks.

Educational Demonstrations

The KCX-189 is suitable for demonstrating three-dimensional optical observation and the differences between 20X and 40X magnification.

Working Principle

The Binocular Stereo Zoom Microscope KCX-189 operates using the Greenough stereoscopic optical principle.

The microscope incorporates two separate optical paths that view the specimen from slightly different angles.

Each optical path produces a distinct image. When the observer looks through both eyepieces, these images are combined by the visual system to produce an impression of depth and three-dimensional structure.

The specimen is positioned beneath the microscope objective system and illuminated using the available LED lighting arrangement.

The revolving objective turret allows users to select between 2X and 4X objectives.

When combined with the WF10X eyepieces, these objectives provide total optical magnifications of 20X and 40X.

The coaxial coarse and fine focusing controls allow users to adjust the image until the specimen appears sharp.

The 60 mm working distance provides clearance for suitable specimen positioning and handling.

Optical Magnification Combinations

Note: The microscope uses a revolving objective turret with two magnification settings. The supplied specifications do not establish a continuous zoom mechanism.

Microscope Compatibility and Usage

The KCX-189 Binocular Stereo Zoom Microscope is designed for observation of suitable biological specimens, small industrial components and laboratory objects.

It can be used in educational institutions, scientific laboratories, electronics inspection facilities and technical training centers.

For general specimen examination, users can select the 2X objective to obtain 20X total magnification.

For more detailed observation, the 4X objective provides 40X total magnification.

The LED intensity controller allows users to adjust lighting according to specimen characteristics.

The coarse and fine focusing controls should be used to obtain a clear stereoscopic image.
