Student Compound Microscope
Product Code : SCL-BLE-11863
The JLab India Student Compound Microscope is a high-durability optical instrument specifically engineered for educational biology, botany, and histology laboratories. This microscope utilizes a multi-lens system to achieve high-resolution magnification of microscopic specimens mounted on glass slides. It features a heavy-duty stable base and precision mechanical components designed to withstand high-volume student use while maintaining optical alignment.

Key Pedagogical Outcomes (Bloom’s Taxonomy Alignment)
- Observation Interface: Facilitates student understanding of cellular structures (nuclei, cell walls, chloroplasts), supporting the core curriculum of General Biology and Life Sciences.
- Optical Quantification: Enables the physical calculation of total magnification; learners apply the product of eyepiece power and objective power to record the scale of observed microorganisms.
- Refractive Analysis: Supports the analysis of "Numerical Aperture" and "Depth of Field"; students evaluate how adjusting the Iris Diaphragm and Condenser height affects image contrast and resolution.
- Histological Evaluation: Allows students to evaluate and identify different tissue types, such as epithelial or connective tissues, fostering advanced medical and veterinary preparatory skills.
International Logistics & Compliance
JLab India ensures comprehensive OEM readiness for global institutional procurement:
- Packaging: Export-grade, double-walled seaworthy packaging (ISPM-15 compliant). The optical components are housed in custom-molded styrofoam with silica gel desiccant to prevent fungal growth during maritime transit.
- Documentation: Includes Manufacturer’s Authorization Form (MAF), Certificate of Conformance (CoC), and a detailed user manual covering cleaning and maintenance protocols.
- Durability: Features a non-corrosive powder-coated finish and fungal-resistant coating on all glass surfaces, ensuring long-term optical clarity in tropical or high-humidity climates.
Direct OEM Sourcing Advantages
Procuring the JLab India Student Compound Microscope directly ensures vertical manufacturing control:
- Parcentric & Parfocal Alignment: Direct oversight of the lens centering process ensures that the specimen remains in focus and centered when switching between different objective magnifications.
- Safety Mechanical Stops: We integrate a "Pre-set Travel Limit" on the coarse focus to prevent the objective lens from making contact with the slide, significantly reducing lens damage and slide breakage.
- Direct Factory Spares Availability: Guaranteed availability of replacement objectives, eyepieces, mirrors, and LED bulbs to maximize the long-term ROI of laboratory assets.
- Quality Assurance: Every microscope undergoes a rigorous optical bench test to ensure a flat field of view and minimal chromatic aberration before dispatch.
