Large mobile gemstone laboratory KA52KRS

The premium, full-featured, portable gemstone lab

Ideally equipped for mobile gemmological use! You can use this fully equipped, portable gemmological laboratory, with precision optics, in an aluminium case from the Rimowa brand, anywhere in the world. It is totally flexible in its power offering – running on mains power (110-230V), it has an automatic voltage switch capability; in the event of reduced or no mains power it will switch to its integral rechargeable battery. The centrepiece is a gemstone stereo microscope, it has special features that are absolutely necessary for a professional gemmologist. The higher the microscopic magnification and the better the optics, the more information is obtained for the reliable identification of gemstones. The integrated cold light source provides excellent light intensity for dark field, transmitted and reflected light illumination for diamond and gemstone examination. Also available in the laboratory: A refractometer for the determination of the refractive index, a spectroscope for stone diagnostics using Fraunhofer’s lines and bands, a dichroscope for examining pleochroism, and a polariscope for quickly identifying common gem imitations. The entire mobile laboratory consists of:
