Core technical features 1.
LIM light intensity management function to reduce frequent dimming ECLIPSE Si is equipped with LIM (Light Intensity Management) function.
After the user sets the appropriate brightness under different objectives, the system can automatically memorize the illumination intensity corresponding to that objective lens; when switching to that objective lens again, the microscope will automatically restore the corresponding brightness.
This function can reduce the steps of repeatedly adjusting the light intensity when switching between low-magnification and high-magnification objective lenses, and can also reduce the discomfort caused by sudden darkening or over-brightness of the field of view.
According to Nikon’s official description, LIM can reduce the time spent manually adjusting light intensity when switching objective lenses, and is suitable for teaching experiments, clinical routine observation, and long-term sample screening. 2.
CFI60 optical system and wide-field observation ECLIPSE Si adopts Nikon CFI60 infinity-corrected optical system, which can be used with CFI E Plan Achromat and other series of objective lenses for routine bright-field observation, cell sample observation, tissue section observation and teaching specimen observation.
Depending on the eyepiece and tube configuration, the ECLIPSE Si supports an FN 20 or FN 22 field of view.
The wide field of view configuration helps to expand the scope of single observation, reduce the frequency of moving slides, and improve the efficiency of sample positioning, teaching demonstrations, and routine microscopy. 3.
High-brightness white-light LED transmitted illumination ECLIPSE Si uses a high-brightness white-light LED transmitted illumination system and a built-in compound eye lens to provide more uniform field of view illumination.
The system can accommodate up to two 45 mm diameter filters and is suitable for routine brightfield observation and basic sample recording.
LED light source has the characteristics of low power consumption, low maintenance and long life, and is suitable for high-frequency teaching experiments and daily clinical observation.
LED lighting reduces the maintenance that comes with replacing bulbs compared to traditional halogen lights. 4.
Expandable phase contrast observation, suitable for unstained transparent samples ECLIPSE Si can expand the phase contrast observation function according to application needs.
By configuring a phase contrast objective lens, phase contrast condenser or corresponding phase contrast accessories, the contrast of transparent samples can be enhanced without staining, making it easy to observe cell outlines, cell status, microbial samples and some living cell samples.
Phase contrast observation is suitable for teaching experiments, cell culture observation, basic life science experiments and clinical routine sample observation.
For laboratories that need to further observe the details of transparent samples beyond brightfield, ECLIPSE Si's phase contrast expansion capabilities can increase the system's applicability. 5.
Ergonomic design for long-term observation ECLIPSE Si adopts an ergonomic design that meets the needs of long-term observation.
The standard lens tube tilt angle is 45°, and the eye point height can be adjusted in two levels, making it easier for users of different heights and sitting postures to obtain a more natural observation posture.
Depending on the configuration, an ergonomic tube is also available to further improve neck and shoulder comfort during long examinations.
The microscope adopts a low stage design with a stage travel of X 76 mm and Y 52 mm, which is suitable for routine slide observation and continuous sample operation.
The focusing knobs are located on both sides of the fuselage.
It adopts a coaxial coarse/fine focusing structure, and is equipped with a coarse focusing torque adjustment ring and a stage vertical movement limit function, which helps to improve operating comfort and reduce the risk of collision between the objective lens and the glass slide. 6.
Compact structure, suitable for teaching and general laboratories.
ECLIPSE Si adopts a built-in reverse five-hole objective lens converter and a built-in rectangular mechanical stage.
The overall structure is compact and suitable for teaching laboratories, hospital laboratory departments, basic scientific research laboratories and general sample observation environments.
Its design focuses on reducing operating burden, improving continuous observation efficiency, and helping users maintain stable operation during long-term microscopy. 2.
Application selection guidance Nikon ECLIPSE Si is suitable for users who need to balance teaching convenience, clinical routine observation efficiency, phase contrast expansion capabilities and comfort for long-term microscopy.
For university teaching laboratories, basic medical teaching, hospital laboratory departments and general laboratories, ECLIPSE Si's LIM light intensity management, LED transmitted lighting, low-level stage, phase contrast expansion and ergonomic design can effectively improve daily observation efficiency.
If the main needs are basic teaching, routine brightfield observation, unstained transparent sample observation, clinical sample screening and digital image recording, ECLIPSE Si is a more suitable choice.
If the laboratory needs more advanced fluorescence expansion, multi-modal observation, high-intensity diagnostic functions in pathology department, or richer system expansion capabilities, higher-end platforms such as Nikon ECLIPSE Ci-L plus and Ni-L can be considered based on needs.
Nikon ECLIPSE Si is an upright biological microscope designed for educational teaching, routine clinical observation, and basic laboratory microscopy.
This model uses the Nikon CFI60 infinity-corrected optical system, equipped with high-brightness white LED transmitted illumination, and is equipped with a LIM light intensity management function that can automatically call the corresponding lighting brightness when switching objective lenses of different magnifications, reducing repeated manual dimming and improving comfort and operating efficiency during long-term observation.
Depending on application requirements, ECLIPSE Si can also be extended for phase contrast observation for high-contrast observation of unstained transparent samples and live cell samples.
