Boyles Law Apparatus, Advanced with Oil
Product Code : LSK-POM-11202
Boyles Law Apparatus, Advanced with Oil (SKU LSK-POM-11202) traps air in a thick-walled glass tube above coloured oil; raising the pressure in the oil chamber pushes oil up the tube, and a Bourdon gauge and 0–65 cm³ scale give pressure and volume together. It serves Class 11, B.Sc. and diploma physics. Science Lab Supplies is the maker, building the apparatus at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and quoting schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors without a reseller.
Specifications
Each part of the oil-type Boyle's law set has a row below. In short, a Bourdon gauge on a high-pressure oil chamber connects through an O-ring sealed metal tube to a thick-walled glass tube in front of a 0–65 cm³ scale, behind a transparent safety screen.

Applications and Experiments for the Boyle's Law Apparatus with Oil
As the pressure in the oil chamber is raised, oil rises into the glass tube and compresses the trapped air. Students read the air volume on the scale and the total pressure on the gauge at each step, then plot pressure against 1/V to confirm Boyle's law.
- NCERT Class 11 (Kinetic Theory): verifying Boyle's law, an item on the physics lab equipment list for Class 11 and 12.
- Raising the pressure with a compressor such as the Portable Diaphragm Type Vacuum Pump cum Air Compressor, Oil Free, Light Weight; confirm the fitting with the team.
- Comparing this method with the simpler syringe-type Boyle's Law Apparatus.
Keep the safety screen in place, raise the pressure slowly, stay within the gauge range and release the pressure before opening any joint.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each apparatus includes the oil chamber with Bourdon gauge and pump valve, the thick-walled glass tube on its O-ring sealed metal tube, the 0–65 cm³ scale and the transparent safety screen. It is supplied without the pump and oil, which the laboratory provides.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a pump or oil supplied with the Boyles Law Apparatus, Advanced with Oil?
No. The apparatus is supplied without pump and oil. The valve on the oil chamber connects to an air compression pump, and the chamber takes coloured oil before use.
What range do the gauge and scale cover?
The Bourdon gauge is graduated 0 to 3.4 × 10⁵ N/m², and the volume scale behind the glass tube runs from 0 to 65 cm³, with zero at the inside of the closed end.
What safety features does it have?
The glass tube has thick, high-strength walls with a large safety overload margin, an O-ring gives a leak-proof joint, and a transparent safety screen sits in front of the tube.
Is this apparatus manufactured by Science Lab Supplies?
Yes, it is produced at the company's Saha, Ambala plant in India. As the manufacturer, Science Lab Supplies can answer technical questions about the oil chamber and gauge and issues the quotation itself.
