PE-NK120 Peltier Heating and Freezing Stage

Benefits and Features

The PE-NK120 stage is a simple to use thermoelectrically cooled stage that accurately controls the temperature of microscope slides to +/-0.1C from -25 to 120°C.

The stage is built into the XY table of the Eclipse range of Nikon microscopes so that the high resolution 0.9NA condenser top lens can be used to setup kohler illumination. When coupled with a high resolution Plan Apochromat objective lens, this system provides the best optical performance temperature control stage available in it's class.
