STATEMENT OF WORK OLYMPUS SYSTEM MICROSCOPE BX43F3 Northport VAMC Background/Scope: The Northport VAMC Dermatology Department wishes to purchase an Olympus BX43 microscope. The current microscope is out of order and replacement parts are no longer available. The microscope is an essential piece of equipment for reviewing pathology slides in the clinic before optimal treatment can be determined. The microscope allows physicians to conduct slow Mohs procedures a microscopy-guided staged excision to help manage complex skin cancers. Additionally, with an LED illuminator equivalent to or better than a 100 W halogen lamp, the BX43 microscope delivers brightness that s appropriate for teaching and various contrast methods. Specifications: The BX43 microscope utilizes a high color rendering white LED with a luminosity equivalent to a 30 W halogen lamp. The long-lasting LED provides a consistent color temperature at any brightness level and allows for highly accurate color reproduction while producing little heat that will cause specimens to deteriorate. The BX43 s light intensity manager eliminates the step of adjusting lamp brightness when changing magnification. By maintaining uniform brightness at any magnification, users can achieve their observations quickly and with reduced eye strain. A low magnification condenser allows quick and easy change of the objective magnification from 2x to 100x. The BX43 microscope is customizable with modular units including condensers, nosepieces, a rotating stage, objectives, and intermediate optics optimized for various observation methods. The following is a list of components the Northport VAMC wishes to purchase to complete the Olympus BX43F3 microscope system in its entirety: Item Description Qty BX43F3 BX43F-1-3; Microscope Frame with Transmitted Arm, Led Illumination 1 3-U330 U-TTR-2; TILTING TRINOC HEAD 50:50,100:0,0:100% POSITIONS 1 WHN10X-1-8 Eyepiece for BX/IX, 10x w/ =24mm t=1.5mm Retical Shelf, FN22 1 WHN10X-H-1-8 Eyepiece for BX/IX, 10x Focusing w/ =24mm t=1.5mm Retical Shelf, FN22 1 U-R156 U-D6RE;6 POSITION NOSEPIECE, REVERSE, ANALYZER SLOT, RMS THREAD 1 1-U2B921 PLAPON2X; PLAN APO 2X OBJECTIVE, NA 0.08, WD 6.2MM 1 1-U2B5222 UPLFLN4X-2; U Plan Fluorite 4X Objective, NA 0.13, WD 17MM 1 1-U2B5242 UPLFLN10X2-2; U Plan Fluorite 10X Objective, NA 0.3, WD 10MM 1 1-U2B5252 UPLFLN20X-2; U Plan Fluorite 20X Objective, NA 0.5, WD 2.1MM 1 1-U2B5272 UPLFLN40X-2; U Plan Fluorite 40X Objective, NA 0.75, WD 0.51MM 1 1-U2B53522 UPLFLN100XO2-2; U Plan Fluorite 1 00X Oil Objective, NA 1.30, WD 0.20MM 1 4-U130 U-SVRB-4; RIGHT HAND MECHANICAL STAGE, RACKLESS, LONG STALK 1 4-U142 U-HLDT-4; LEFT RELEASE SLIDE HOLDER, DOUBLE SLIDE, THICK 1 6-U1218 U-SC3-8; STRAIN FREE SWING CONDENSER, NA 0.9/0.17, 1.25X-100X COVERAGE 1 5-UL3152 U-LHLEDC-1-2; TRANSMITTED WHITE LED FOR BX43, BX46, BX63 1 7-DP27-CSE DP27 5MP COLOR CAMERA, CELLSENS ENTRY LICENSE, USB 3.0 CBL 1 U-V105C48 U-TV0.5XC-3-8; CCD CAMERA ADAPTER,0.5X LENS, C-MOUNT 1 HP-Z2G4SFF Z2 G4 Small Form Factor Tower, Win10, Intel Xeon E-2174G 4 Core CPU, 16GB DDR4-2666 RAM, 256GB SATA SSD, 1TB SATA HDD, Quadro P620 2GB 1 HP-Z24N-G2 1JS09A4; Z24n G2 24" Narrow Bezel iPS Monitor 1 UYCP-11 UYCP-11; US STYLE 3-PRONG POWER CORD 1 COVER001 COVER-001; DUST COVER, SHEET TYPE FOR DUAL OBSV SETUPS 1 Warranty: The microscope and its components shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for a period, beginning from the date of shipment, of (a) five (5) years for optical or mechanical defects and (b) one (1) year for electrical, electro-mechanical, electronic, or wear-related components.
