Product description

Modular optical microscope with interchangeable components, dual-surface mirror, and optional Köhler illumination.

The Nikon SE microscope, introduced in the 1960s, was a versatile instrument designed for biological, medical, and metallurgical studies. Its modular design allowed users to customise the microscope with various eyepieces, objectives, condensers, and stages to suit specific research needs.

Key features included:

  • Interchangeable components: Users could select from a range of eyepiece tubes (inclined monocular, binocular, and trinocular) and stages (rectangular mechanical and graduated circular rotatable) to tailor the microscope for different applications.
  • Dual-surface reflecting mirror: Provided illumination options with a plane surface for use with the condenser and a concave surface for objectives of 20X magnification or less.
  • Optional built-in illumination: A 15-watt substage lamp or a built-in Köhler illuminator (S-Ke model) offered enhanced lighting control.
  • Diverse objective lenses: A selection of achromatic and apochromatic objectives was available, catering to both metallurgical (episcopic) and biological/medical (diascopic) studies.

The Nikon SE was widely adopted in fields such as cell biology, biochemistry, and pathology, making it a staple in university laboratories, medical research centres, and industrial facilities. Its adaptability and precision optics contributed significantly to advancements in biotechnology and pharmaceutical research during its period of use.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
