Aneroid Barometer
Product Code : SCL-CL-12360
Aneroid Barometer (SKU SCL-CL-12360) is a dial-type instrument that shows atmospheric pressure without any liquid column, reading 960–1060 hPa (720–795 mmHg) on a single black pointer. It suits air-pressure and weather lessons in middle and secondary school, and the dual units help with pressure-conversion work. Orders are quoted and dispatched by Science Lab Supplies, an Ambala-based supplier in India, for schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The table sets out each specification of the 960–1060 hPa dial barometer. In short, it is an aneroid instrument that works without mercury or any other fluid: the dial sits behind a perspective window, the black pointer marks air pressure, and the lightweight case can hang on a wall or rest on a surface.

Applications and Experiments for the Aneroid Barometer
The barometer lets students read atmospheric pressure directly and follow how it changes from day to day. It supports air-pressure and weather topics in school science, geography practicals on weather instruments, and introductory physics work on pressure units, where hPa and mmHg readings can be compared on the same dial.
- NCERT Class 8 science (force and pressure): showing that the atmosphere exerts pressure, alongside demonstrations with the Air Pump (Vacuum Pump with Aluminium Plate).
- Geography practicals: keeping a daily pressure log beside wind-speed readings from a Cup Anemometer with Analog Display.
- Class 11 physics (fluids): converting between hectopascals and millimetres of mercury, and comparing them with the cmHg and inHg gauge of the Hand Vacuum Pump with Pressure Gauge.
- School weather corners: relating a falling or rising pointer to the weather that follows.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Aneroid Barometer is supplied as a single dial unit, ready to hang on a wall or stand on a surface. Wall fixings or any optional items you want can be added as separate lines on the quotation, together with other weather instruments for the same classroom.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations can cover one barometer for a staff room or one for every science classroom, and each lists the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity. Thermometers and psychrometers can go on the same request, so a whole weather-study order can come from one chemistry lab instruments supplier.
As a registered exporter holding an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria and Kenya. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). For a price on one dial or several, message the team on the contact page, place the barometer in the enquiry cart, or turn to the lab tender page when the purchase runs through a formal bid.
Frequently Asked Questions
What range does this aneroid barometer read?
It reads 960 to 1060 hPa, shown on the dial as 720 to 795 mmHg. Schools well above sea level can have lower local pressure, so share your altitude through the contact page before ordering.
Does the barometer contain mercury?
No. An aneroid barometer works without any liquid column, so there is no mercury to fill, spill or dispose of; the black pointer on the dial shows the air pressure directly.
Who supplies the Aneroid Barometer?
Science Lab Supplies, working from Ambala in India, handles this barometer from quotation to dispatch and can price one dial for a staff room or a larger quantity for a school group or tender.
Can it be mounted on a wall?
Yes. The lightweight case is easy to install and can hang on a wall or be placed on a flat surface such as a shelf or table, so it can serve a classroom, laboratory or weather corner.
