Olympus SZX7 – Features

The Galilean optical system, with a 0.8x to 5.6x zoom range, pairs with distortion-free objective lenses featuring large numerical apertures. This combination produces sharp, clear images at any magnification, suitable for various sample types. Enhanced lens coatings further optimize image quality, making this system perfect for both routine and specialized work.

Ergonomics are a priority with the SZX7. The long tilting trinocular head positions the microscope closer to the user, while the extendable eyepoint adjuster accommodates different heights. These features reduce strain and ensure a comfortable working position, increasing efficiency and reducing operator fatigue. Controls are strategically positioned for easy access, minimizing unnecessary movement and promoting a natural posture.

For consistent and repeatable results, the SZX7 includes an integrated click-stop mechanism on the zoom control. This feature allows users to quickly return to specific magnifications, essential for tasks requiring comparable observations. The zoom knob stopper ensures precise magnification settings, with the current setting clearly displayed on the front panel for added convenience.

About the EP50 Camera:

Breaking away from static microscope labs, the EP50 camera and WLAN adaptor can transform the classroom into a dynamic, interactive space.

• Flexible camera control and viewing options: connect using mobile devices or WLAN-enabled PCs/laptops via wireless or wired LAN connection
• High-quality, crisp, 5-megapixel images
• Fast frame rates enable students to navigate quickly through the specimen

The flexible camera control and viewing options offered by the EPview app software expand interaction and collaboration possibilities:

• Control the EP50 camera using the EPview app for mobile devices or software for PCs/laptops
• Up to 6 users can connect their devices to the same WLAN-enabled EP50 camera
• Access the images of other EP50 cameras in the classroom
• Capture, process, store, and share the EP50 camera's images through the easy-to-use software interface
• Simultaneous live image output via WLAN and HDMI

Lecturers and students can both benefit from the image sharing, viewing, and storage options of the EP50 WLAN-enabled camera:

• Live stream images to a group of students on their mobile devices or WLAN-enabled PCs/laptops
• Display specimen images on a high-resolution monitor, projector, or interactive white board connected to the camera’s HDMI port
• Present Full HD videos
• Connect an SD card and save captured image data for further analysis

Students can experience a digital-image-supported learning process:

• Students can work comfortably on their own or in collaboration, using the camera’s On-Screen Display (OSD) imaging software
• The OSD software is simple and intuitive
• Easily capture, view, and process specimen images and movies
• Save observation data for further investigation on an SD card

About the SZ2-CLS dual fiber optic light source

The SZ2-CLS is an innovative fiber optic light source and an attractive alternative to conventional halogen cold light sources. It is ideal for use with routine “Greenough” type microscopes including any Olympus SZ microscope.

The SZ2-CLS is very small and compact and can be fitted to all Olympus stereo microscopes, thus forming a unit. The brightness of the 3 W, high power LED is equivalent to a 30 W halogen lamp, yet it consumes 80% less energy.

Another advantage is that the color temperature remains stable when the light is dimmed, and continuous electronic dimming can be affected, from zero to 100%. This powerful light source offers simple operation, excellent performance and value for money.

• LED brightness is equivalent to a 30-watt halogen lamp.
• Neutral white light (approx. 5,600 K) enables reliable observation.
• Maintains constant color temperature even when the light intensity is varied.
• Cold-light fiber-optic illumination minimizes damage to samples.
• 50,000-hour lifetime (approx.) with maximum 6-watt power consumption conserves energy and minimize maintenance.

Olympus SZX7 Stereo Microscope - Testing

This Olympus SZX7 is used and reconditioned. We bring in a professional optics technician to thoroughly assess the functionality of every component in your microscope. This includes inspecting the objectives, moving parts, eyepieces, illumination system, and all other critical components to ensure optimal performance.

If you have any specific requirements or particular concerns, please let us know. We are more than happy to accommodate your requests and ensure they are fully addressed during the testing and verification process.
