XSZ6745 0.75X Stereo Microscope Barlow Lens
The XSZ6745 0.75X Barlow lens extends the working distance of a stereo microscope by 33% without changing the objective or magnification.

Product Overview
The XSZ6745 0.75X Barlow lens extends the working distance of a stereo microscope by 33% without changing the objective or magnification. It fits between the objective and the microscope head, so the operator maintains a clear view and a long working distance while inspecting large or deep components. This lens is designed for use with 1X objectives on Greenough stereo microscopes.
- Magnification factor0.75X
- Optical systemGreenough
- Mounting interfaceStandard microscope head thread
- Power requirementPassive, no power needed
- ApplicationWorking distance extension
- Field of viewUnchanged relative to original system
Key Benefits
- Increases working distance by 33% when used with a 1X objective
- Maintains stereo depth perception while extending reach under the optics
- No need to replace the objective or change the magnification to gain clearance
- Simple installation between the objective and the microscope head
- Preserves the original field of view and optical alignment of the system
Application Scenarios
- Inspecting deep circuit board traces or through-hole components with a soldering iron in use
- Handling large PCBs or moulded parts where the standard working distance is too short
- Performing rework on components mounted in tight enclosures or deep cavities
- Using a microscope with a fixed objective in a bench setup that requires more clearance
- Maintaining a consistent working distance across multiple inspection tasks without switching optics
Who It Is For
- Electronics rework and repair technicians working on SMD and through-hole assemblies
- Quality inspectors handling large or deep components on PCBs and connectors
- Manufacturing engineers in electronics and precision assembly lines
- Laboratory technicians in metallurgy, geology, and gemmology requiring extended reach
- Educational labs where students need to manipulate tools under the microscope
Problems It Solves
- A short working distance prevents the use of a soldering iron or probe under the microscope head
- Replacing the objective to gain clearance breaks the optical alignment and changes magnification
- Lack of a simple, low-cost solution to extend reach without modifying the microscope body
- Inability to maintain stereo vision when using extension tubes or adapters
- Need for a modular accessory that works across multiple microscope models with 1X objectives
Technical Features
- 0.75X magnification factor, reducing the effective magnification by 25%
- Designed for use with 1X objectives on Greenough stereo microscopes
- Threaded interface compatible with standard microscope head mounting
- Maintains optical alignment and binocular stereo view across the full zoom range
- No power required; passive optical component
- Constructed for use in bench-top inspection environments

- Designed to fit standard 1X objective systems on Greenough stereo microscopes
Comparison With Other Options
| No Barlow lens used with a 1X objective | The XSZ6745 extends working distance by 33% without changing magnification, allowing tool clearance without altering the optical setup. |
|---|---|
| Using a 0.5X objective instead | A 0.5X objective reduces magnification by 50% and changes the field of view; the 0.75X Barlow lens only reduces magnification by 25% and preserves the original optical characteristics. |
| Using an extension tube | An extension tube increases working distance but may degrade image quality and break stereo alignment; the Barlow lens maintains optical integrity and stereo depth. |
Use Guide
- Install the Barlow lens between the 1X objective and the microscope head
- Ensure the lens is fully seated on the objective thread to avoid misalignment
- Check that the working distance is sufficient for your tool clearance after installation
- Do not use with objectives other than 1X; compatibility is limited to 1X systems
- Verify that the stereo view remains aligned after installation; adjust if needed

View DetailsFrequently Asked Questions
What is the effect of the 0.75X Barlow lens on magnification?
It reduces the effective magnification by 25%, so a 10X objective becomes 7.5X.
Can I use this lens with objectives other than 1X?
No. It is designed specifically for use with 1X objectives on Greenough stereo microscopes.
Does this lens affect the stereo view?
No. The Greenough optical system is preserved, and stereo depth perception remains intact.
How much does the working distance increase?
Approximately 33% longer than the original working distance with a 1X objective.
Is power required to operate the Barlow lens?
No. It is a passive optical component with no power requirement.
Can I use this lens with a trinocular head?
Yes. It fits between the objective and the head, so it works with both binocular and trinocular configurations.
