Product Overview

This listing combines the Olympus U-TR30 trinocular head and the IX-ATU front port adapter into a complete assembly that adds a fully functional 3-position trinocular observation head to the front (main) port of any Olympus IX series inverted microscope. The U-TR30 provides three selectable light path configurations: 100% of the light to the eyepieces for maximum-brightness visual observation, 100% to the camera port for uncompromised imaging sensitivity, or a split between eyepieces and camera for simultaneous observation and documentation. The IX-ATU adapter interfaces the U-TR30 directly with the IX series front port, making this a straightforward upgrade for IX systems that currently lack a trinocular head or camera output on the main port. Compatible with the full range of Olympus IX inverted microscopes including the IX50, IX51, IX53, IX70, IX71, IX73, IX81, and IX83. This unit is in excellent condition at a significant discount from the list price.
