If your electron microscope has been doing its job for years, or even decades, it's time for a new system.

If your budget is limited, certified pre-owned systems are definitely an option. These pre-owned systems are re-worked, certified to ZEISS standards and covered by legal warranty. The result: you receive guaranteed support at an attractive price.

Please contact your local sales representative to find out which pre-owned systems are currently available.

Please note that the availability of pre-owned instruments may differ from region to region.

Carl Zeiss Certified Pre-Owned Electron Microscope Program delivers fully refurbished microscopes with guaranteed performance at exceptional value. Our Certified Pre-Owned instruments are refurbished by our factory trained Engineers to meet the same factory standards as when the instrument was originally purchased. While there are dozens of “used equipment resellers” out there; only Carl Zeiss can guarantee you’re getting ZEISS Quality, Performance and Reliability, backed by our world-wide Service and Support Team.

Not every used instrument qualifies for the ZEISS Certified Pre-Owned Microscope Program. Only those instruments that have been well cared for, are still of recent generation and so are supportable for years to come, and have made it through our exhaustive regiment of factory tests, become ZEISS Certified Pre-Owned. Instruments that do not meet these criteria are not accepted into this program.

Quality:

• Thorough inspection upon arrival at our facility

Performance:

• Pre-delivery site audit of your facility to ensure optimum performance after installation, included
• Software updated to the most current version possible to ensure the maximum functionality possible
• In many cases, system upgrades and accessories can be bundled into your tool purchase, to provide capabilities typically only available on our most current generation instruments

Reliability:

• Carl Zeiss backed 1 Year Warranty on all complete Systems (extended warranty available for some products)
• All Pre-Owned instruments are given the same priority service as a new instrument
