Optisches Modul Regula 4178

Regula 4178 is a compact USB device constructed in plastic body in the form of a base for a spectral luminescent magnifier Regula 4177. The device power supply, control, displaying and processing examination results are carried out via a PC and Regula Forensic Studio software.

The optical module widens the spectral luminescent magnifier field of view. The device is equipped with additional light sources.
