BX43
World-famous optics and operating efficiency for a wide range of clinical applications
The new BX43 upright microscope replaces the BX41 with enhanced user operation and improved optical versatility. The new light intensity management system, binocular and trinocular observation tubes, and coded nose pieces for auto calibration.Olympus continues the history of providing outstanding value in a clinical microscope.
The BX43 supports brightfield, phase contrast, simple polarized light, and darkfield observation. New LED illumination assures a constant colour temperature for consistent and accurate color imaging.
Flexible system format supports a wide-range of observation methods
- New binocular and trinocular observation heads enhance the ergonomics and operation of a BX43 microscope. Choose between tilting and traditional configurations.
- The new light intensity management feature, with the new revolving encoded objective nosepieces, controls light intensity as observation magnification changes.
- The new LED light source offers superb colour reproduction from purple to cyan to red, and long lifespan.
- Get digital images in a snap! The new hand switch for the Olympus DP21 digital camera can be easily mounted within a finger’s reach of the focus knob, allowing the operator to snap a digital image without disrupting observation.
- New U-LC condenser achieves even illumination of specimens for observation from 2x to 100x dry. An assortment of other condensers allow you to perform a wide range of contrast techniques such as Nomarski (DIC), polarization for Gout analysis, phase contrast, and darkfield observation.
Ergonomic design for efficiency and comfort
- Updated Y-shaped frame brings user controls forward for ease of access, efficiency and enhanced operator comfort.
- The new tilting, telescoping/ lifting binocular observation tube offers unsurpassed comfort in viewing position. The new U-TTLBI binocular head tilts from 0-27°, extends an incredible 55mm, and lifts 45mm to accommodate different operators and reduce fatigue during use.
- The new colour-balanced LED with light intensity management system diminishes eye fatigue and the strain of repetitive adjustments.

Optimal LED lighting and UIS2 optics
Optimal LED Lighting for Brightfield
Olympus white LED with high color rendering index has wavelength characteristics close to those of halogen, realizing color reproduction equivalent to halogen lamps. LED lighting is dimmable with a constant color temperature, preventing filter adjustments.
