The Westbury SP series has recently undergone a style improvement, giving the instruments a very modern appearance. They are high power microscopes with a robust high quality design and finished to an excellent standard. The impressive specification of this range is considered ideal for the advanced student or professional. Standard features of the series are: Quadruple nosepiece turret. The eyetube units, monocular and binocular, are inclined and fully rotatable through 360 degrees. Rack and pinion coarse and fine focus mechanism.
The SP30 monocular is also available with LED lighting making the microscope truly portable. The triple LED lighting is powered by internal rechargeable batteries, and the recharging plug transformer is supplied. An overnight charge will allow a full 8 hours use with rheostat brightness control. The LED version can also be used connected to a mains power supply when the batteries are low. An excellent innovation. Not available for the SP40 binocular.
All models have a full substage which includes an Abbe condenser with an independent focus control (N.A. 1.25), iris diaphragm and filter carrier. DIN standard parfocal objectives. The high power objectives have retractable front lenses for slide safety. Focus stop. Inbuilt illumination with a 20 watt quartz halogen rheostat controlled lighting system.
The monocular and binocular versions are available with a very effective multiple LED lighting system. This enables the microscope to be used away from an electricity supply for up to 40 hours from one charge.
