Epidiascope

Epidiascope — Opaque & Slide Projector for Classrooms

The Samtech Epidiascope is a dual-purpose optical projector that combines an episcope (projects opaque objects — book pages, photographs, diagrams, coins, leaves) and a diascope (projects transparent slides and film). One instrument lets a teacher enlarge almost any object or slide onto a screen for the whole class, with no need to redraw or photocopy material.

Built for school and college classrooms, it uses a high-output 1000 W projection lamp with a built-in cooling fan, a quality projection lens with focusing control, and simple lever controls to switch between opaque and slide projection and to raise or lower the image.

Key Features

• Dual projection — opaque (episcope) and slide/transparency (diascope) in one unit
• High-output 1000 W lamp, 220–230 V AC, for a bright and sharp image
• Built-in forced-air cooling fan with separate lamp and fan switches
• Adjustable projection lens with focus control
• Lever controls for opaque/slide changeover and UP/DOWN image positioning
• Rugged powder-coated metal body on a stable stand

Classroom Uses

• Projecting book pages, diagrams, maps, photographs and flat specimens
• Projecting glass or film slides and transparencies
• Enlarging small printed material so the whole class can read it
• Physics optics teaching, geography, biology, art and general demonstrations

Safe Use

Always switch the fan ON before the lamp, and let the fan run for a few minutes after the lamp is switched off so the unit cools down. Keep the epidiascope covered when not in use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an epidiascope used for?

It projects an enlarged image of both opaque material (book pages, photographs, diagrams, small objects) and transparent slides onto a screen, so a whole class can see the same material at once.

What is the difference between an episcope, a diascope and an epidiascope?

An episcope projects opaque objects by reflected light, a diascope projects transparent slides by transmitted light, and an epidiascope combines both functions in one instrument.

What lamp does the Samtech Epidiascope use?

A 1000 W projection lamp running on 220–230 V AC, with a built-in cooling fan and separate switches for the lamp and the fan.

Can it project pages directly from a book?

Yes. In opaque (episcope) mode you can place a book, photograph, chart or flat specimen on the platform and project it without making a slide or photocopy.

Do you supply epidiascopes in bulk to schools and colleges?

Yes — Samtech is the manufacturer, so bulk and institutional pricing is available. Call +91-86838-78878 or WhatsApp us for a quote.
