The 880 is mounted on an Axio Observer Z1 with automated xyz control. The system is equipped with a spectral 32-channel QUASAR GaAsp detector allowing for spectral imaging and maximum sensitivity photon counting. There are two adjacent PMT's and a transmitted light detector. The accompanying incubation system, which encloses the microscope, offers stable environmental conditions with temperature, humidity and carbon dioxide control.

The 780 is a combined confocal/FCS/NLO system, mounted on an inverted Axio Observer Z1. The 780 employs the spectral 32-channel QUASAR GaAsp detector allowing for spectral imaging, maximum sensitivity photon counting and Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS) as well as two adjacent PMT's. The accompanying incubation system, which encloses the microscope, offers stable environmental conditions with temperature, humidity and carbon dioxide control.

The CC3 is a combined confocal and FCS system, mounted on a AxioVert 200M. This system has two avalanche photodiodes (APD) with ultimate sensitivity allowing for decreased laser power with delicate specimens as well as three traditional PMTs. The APD's are highly efficient in the red wavelength range where fluorescent signal can be very weak.
