  • Introducing AO's Low CostMICROSCOPE ILLUMINATOR

    "Budgets remain the same while costscontinue to rise." That is the problem to-day, purchasers of laboratory equipmentreport. To meet the growing demand, AOhas developed a sturdy, low cost combina..tion table and microscope illuminator.

    Placed in the center of a laboratorytable, it is a central light source for asmany as four microscopes. This illuminatorprovides an even circle of light, withoutglare. In addition, it furnishes general il-

    Illuminator, complete with 7 footcord and plug

    Only $18.00In lots of S or more $16.20

    lumination for the entire laboratory tabletop.

    Light supplied by the 150 watt cleardaylight lamp is evenly diffused by theopal glass globe. Both globe and lamp areinexpensive replacements available at anyelectrical supply store. Top-vented droprim shade assures cool operation. Thestable base is heavy enough to preventtipping. Attractive maroon wrinkle enamelfinish resists usual laboratory reagents.
