A high quality instrument of robust, reliable metal construction and excellent optical performance. Highly recommended for Primary Science Education and Field Study Centres (officially approved by the Royal Microscopical Society for use in primary schools). Extremely simple to use, the PM-1 is ideal for the examination of everyday objects (coins, gems, insects etc) in fascinating yet understandable detail.

The anti-tamper child/student proof design includes locked-on eyepiece & stage clips and a slip clutch on the focus movement.

The PM-1 is an extremely useful routine inspection microscope for use in industrial applications such as circuit boards, solder joints etc.

So what's so great about the PM-1?

This is a handsome and well made instrument. All its controls operate smoothly and it is great for looking at everyday objects. The attraction of this type of instrument is that it does not use glass slides and but instead offers close-up highly controlled images of solid objects. Simple objects like the tip of a ball-point pen or a leaf become an absorbing spectacle that encourages further study. This microscope is an ideal instrument for children 7+.
