XUB Series
Laboratory biological microscopes designed for hospital research and teaching applications, with monocular, binocular and trinocular observation heads, adjustable interpupillary distance and 30° inclined, 360° rotatable Seidentopf tubes.
The XUB Series comprises laboratory biological microscopes built for consistent performance in hospital research and teaching environments. Each model features a one-piece frame from arm to base, ensuring stability during extended use. Observation heads include monocular, binocular and trinocular options with 30° tilt, adjustable interpupillary distance from 48mm to 75mm, and 360° rotation. The Seidentopf observation tubes are diopter adjustable and support both standard and photographic eyepieces.

What Goes Wrong Without the Right XUB Series
- A fixed-angle observation head limits comfort during long inspection sessions
- Lack of interpupillary adjustment causes eye strain when multiple users share the same microscope
- Non-rotatable tubes prevent optimal positioning when viewing from different angles
- Fragile or separate tube assemblies reduce stability and increase alignment issues
- No provision for photographic or digital imaging in basic models limits documentation capability
Who Buys From This Category
- Hospital research laboratories conducting tissue and cell analysis
- Teaching institutions using biological microscopes in undergraduate biology courses
- Clinical pathology labs performing routine sample examination
- University labs supporting student-led research in microbiology and histology
- Research teams needing stable, adjustable microscopes for repeated sample observation
Why These Items
- One-piece frame construction from arm to base ensures mechanical stability and reduces vibration
- 30° inclined, 360° rotatable Seidentopf observation tubes allow flexible positioning for multiple users
- Adjustable interpupillary distance from 48mm to 75mm accommodates a wide range of users
- Diopter adjustment on each eyepiece compensates for individual vision differences
- Trinocular models support photographic and digital imaging with optional 0.4X photographic eyepiece
- Monocular and binocular heads provide cost-effective options for basic observation tasks
Where These Are Used
- Examining blood smears in a hospital lab where multiple technicians use the same microscope
- Conducting histology slide analysis in a university teaching lab with students of varying eye spacing
- Documenting cell cultures using a trinocular head with a digital camera attached
- Performing routine tissue section checks in a clinical pathology setting with long observation periods
- Adjusting the viewing angle during a group demonstration in a biology class
Before You Order
- Confirm whether a monocular, binocular or trinocular head is required based on imaging needs
- Check the interpupillary distance range to ensure compatibility with the primary user's eye spacing
- Ensure the microscope stand and stage are compatible with the intended application and sample size
- Select a model with a trinocular head if photographic or digital imaging is required
- Verify that the eyepiece and objective lens combination supports the required magnification for the sample
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the XUB100, XUB200, XUB300 and XUB400 models?
The models differ in observation head configuration and available features. XUB400 and XUB300 offer trinocular heads, while XUB200 and XUB100 include monocular and binocular options. All models have 30° inclined, 360° rotatable Seidentopf tubes with adjustable interpupillary distance.
Can I use a photographic eyepiece with these microscopes?
Yes. The trinocular models support a 0.4X photographic eyepiece for connecting to cameras or digital imaging systems.
Are the observation tubes diopter adjustable?
Yes. All Seidentopf observation tubes in the XUB Series are diopter adjustable on each eyepiece.
Do these microscopes have a built-in light source?
No. The XUB Series microscopes do not include a built-in illumination system. A separate light source must be used with the base and condenser.
Can I rotate the observation head 360 degrees?
Yes. The Seidentopf observation tubes on all models are 360° rotatable, allowing the user to position the head for optimal viewing.
