Applications and Experiments for the Glass-Ceramic Heating Plate
The plate heats glassware placed on its flat glass-ceramic surface without a flame, and the acid-resistant board tolerates small spills. It suits practicals across CBSE/NCERT Class 6–12 science and B.Sc. biology and chemistry, especially where a spirit lamp or gas burner is not allowed.
- Warming water baths for enzyme and digestion experiments, with temperature checked on Laboratory Thermometers.
- Boiling leaves in water before the starch test in photosynthesis practicals, using a Chemical Glasses (Beaker) 250ml.
- Heating solutions and evaporating water in general chemistry lessons.
The surface stays hot well after switching off and can reach 600 °C, so mark it as hot, never heat flammable solvents such as alcohol on it, and use only heat-resistant glassware.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Glass-Ceramic Heating Plate is supplied as a single unit as described above, with its 175 x 175 mm heating surface and acid-resistant board. Glassware is not included. Supply voltage, plug type and any optional accessories are listed on the quotation so the plate matches local mains.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Ask for one plate for a prep room or several for student benches. The quotation from Science Lab Supplies gives packing, delivery time and price for the quantity you specify, and beakers, flasks or other heating equipment can be quoted together to complete the order.
Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code, allowing it to ship to buyers in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Uganda. Mention your mains voltage when you write via the contact page or add the plate to the enquiry cart; tender buyers can go to the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
How hot does the plate get?
It reaches a temperature of 600 °C at a power rating of 700 W. Use heat-resistant glassware on it, and allow the surface to cool completely before cleaning it or putting it away.
What size is the heating surface?
The glass-ceramic surface measures 175 x 175 mm and sits on an acid-resistant board. Choose beakers or flasks whose base fits within the 175 mm square surface.
Who supplies the Glass-Ceramic Heating Plate?
Science Lab Supplies supplies the heating plate from Ambala, India. Institutions, tender contractors and distributors receive a direct quotation that covers packing, delivery and the electrical details of the unit.
Can it replace a spirit lamp in school practicals?
For heating water, solutions and water baths, yes. It gives flameless heat with no open burner on the bench, but flammable liquids must never be heated directly on its surface.
