Product Overview

The Olympus U-BI30-2 is the standard binocular observation head for the Olympus BX series research microscope platform, providing two-eye observation with interpupillary distance adjustment to accommodate a wide range of users. The 30mm eyetube inner diameter accepts the full range of Olympus 30mm eyepieces — including the WH10X-H adjustable widefield, SWH 10x super widefield, and crosshair variants — giving users flexibility to configure the head for their specific observation or measurement needs. The binocular design distributes the optical load between both eyes, significantly reducing eye fatigue during extended observation sessions compared to monocular viewing. The U-BI30-2 mounts directly to the Olympus BX and CX series microscope stand dovetail, making it a straightforward replacement or upgrade for existing systems. Supplied as a genuine Olympus OEM component (part no. 3-U224) in new/open box condition.
