Product Overview

The Olympus SPlan 40x (catalog number 1-LB551) is a Semi-Plan achromat objective designed for use with Olympus BH2 series microscopes using the 160mm finite tube length optical system. With a numerical aperture of 0.70 and a working distance of 0.5mm, it delivers strong resolution and light-gathering capability at 40x magnification for routine brightfield, histology, and cytology applications. The SPlan optical design provides a noticeably flatter and more uniformly sharp field compared to standard achromats, with excellent color fidelity across the visible spectrum.
