The PZMIII offers stereo viewing with ample working distance when used with the long working distance (LWD) option. The long working distance (LWD) option with the 501371 and 501375 on a trinocular microscope shows nearly the same scene on the screen as the viewer sees in the eyepieces.

- Trinocular version available
- Perfect for a boom stand or articulating arm
Applications
- Tissue Dissection
- Cell injection
- Specimen manipulation
- Electrode inspection
WPI’s third-generation stereo microscope, PZMIII, is an ideal tool for tissue dissection, cell injection, specimen manipulation, electrode inspection, and many other applications that require a magnified, stereo viewing and ample working distance. It offers the leading brand’s quality and performance at an affordable price. Advanced optics provide the sharpest image that can only be found among the best of this class. It is superior to many stereo microscopes costing almost twice as much. Zooming is achieved by a spring-loaded knob that is smooth and effortless. The compact size and light weight make it more stable and easily manipulated on the boom stand. A specially designed photo/video module is used in the trinocular version of the microscope (PZMTIII) for photo, video, or digital imaging. In addition, an extensive list of optional accessories is available that can make the PZMIII suitable for almost any bio-research applications requiring a stereo microscope. See next page for options.
The PZMTIII trinocular version of this microscope offers a true trinocular view. Both eyepieces and the trinocular ports are active all the time. There is no need for the right eye piece to switch off. The left eye piece dims slightly, and the right eye piece is 50/50.
The following images show various setups for microinjection. Keep in mind that parts are interchangeable. For example:
- M10 or the M9 magnetic base could be used.
- PZMIV microscope could be used instead of the PZMIII.
- M3301 or the KITE micromanipulators can be used, and these micromanipulators can be placed on either side. (Keep in mind, though, If you wanted to use a KITE on the right side of the setup below, you would order a KITE-R (right hand), or if you want an M3301 on the left side, you would order an M3301.)
- 5479 or 5052 magnetic bases are virtually interchangeable.
- One or two Nanoliters, one or two UMPIII systems, or one Nanoliter and one UMPIII may be used, as desired.
Applications
ONE NANOLITER/ONE UMP3-1
ONE NANOLITER
ONE NANOLITER/M3301
ONE NANOLITER/KITE
ONE UMP3-1
Cleaning
For optical components, use high quality, dry air to blow dust and debris from the surface.
Never use organic solvents such as acetone to clean the microscope body. If a wet tissue must be used, try not to leave moistures on the microscope body and optical components.
