Certified Refurbished Microscopes

Nikon Model SC Binocular Microscope

The Nikon Model SC is a durable Japanese-made binocular compound microscope for routine biological, educational and clinical observation. Its rotating binocular head, mechanical stage, Abbe condenser and coaxial focusing controls provide a straightforward platform for brightfield microscopy.

This certified refurbished microscope is checked for optical alignment, focus, stage travel and illumination. Objective and eyepiece sets are often changed during the service life of an SC, so the installed magnifications, oil-immersion objective, condenser and accessories should be confirmed on the individual unit.
