Description
Stereo microscope modular system head KERN OZP 551 is a stereo microscope head intended for modular laboratory and industrial microscopy setups. As part of a building-block system, it can be combined with universal stands and external illumination units to match specific applications and workspace layouts. Different optical characteristics of the available stereo heads, together with flexible stands and secure holders, allow users to configure a tailored stereo microscope rather than accepting a fixed instrument. This modular approach supports individuality, variety and flexible day-to-day work in inspection, preparation and routine observation tasks. The head is supplied as a single piece and integrates into the wider KERN modular stereo range. Net weight is 2,6 kg. Designed for professional combination with matching stands and lighting from manufacturer Kern, the OZP 551 head helps laboratories and workshops assemble a practical stereo microscopy workstation adapted to their own requirements without unnecessary complexity.

Questions about Stereo Microscope Modular System – Head, KERN OZP 551
What is this article?
Stereo Microscope Modular System – Head, KERN OZP 551 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kern for laboratory use. It sits in Stereo microscopes, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A stereo microscope gives a low-magnification, upright, three-dimensional view for dissecting, for sorting and for inspecting a surface. It is not the instrument for a stained section at high power. Working distance and zoom range are the choices.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
