Apparatus with a Wide Spectrum of Use

Product Code : SCL-CL-11463

Apparatus with a Wide Spectrum of Use (SKU SCL-CL-11463) is a general-purpose kit of side-arm test tubes, a dropper, rubber tubes and glass tubes that can be assembled in different ways for small-scale chemistry: generating and passing gases, adding reagents drop by drop, or carrying vapours to a second tube. Science Lab Supplies supplies the kit from Ambala, India to schools, colleges and training institutes, and prepares quotations for distributors and tender contractors.

Specifications

The key parts are test tubes fitted with a side tube about 22 mm long, which acts as a built-in outlet. A dropper adds liquid reagents, rubber tubes make flexible connections from the side arm, and glass tubes carry gas or liquid onward to a receiver or test reagent.

Applications and Experiments for the Wide Spectrum Apparatus

A side-arm test tube works as a miniature gas generator or reaction vessel: the reagent goes in from the top, while gas leaves by the side arm through rubber and glass tubing. This makes one kit usable for many small experiments with low chemical quantities and little waste.

• NCERT Class 10 science: acids with metals and carbonates, and testing the gases produced.
• Class 11 chemistry: small-scale gas preparation and tests in salt analysis.
• Middle-school science: simple reactions that give off a gas.
• Teacher-training and diploma labs: planning microscale versions of standard experiments.

Standard Scope of Supply

The kit contains test tubes with a side tube of about 22 mm, a dropper, rubber tubes and glass tubes. Stoppers, racks, heat sources and chemicals are not named in the listing and can be added to your quotation if required.

Packing, MOQ and Lead Time

You may request a quotation for a single kit or a class quantity. Each quotation spells out the packing, delivery time and price for that number, and extra side-arm tubes or tubing can be priced with it. As a laboratory glassware supplier in India, we can combine it with the rest of your list.

Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code and is a registered exporter that can ship to buyers in Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda and the UAE. Send your requirement from the contact page, collect items in the enquiry cart, or see the lab tender page for tender supply.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a side-arm test tube used for?
The side arm is a gas outlet. With the top stoppered or fed from a dropper, gas made inside leaves through the side arm and tubing, ready to be tested or collected.

Why is it called an apparatus with a wide spectrum of use?
Because the same side-arm tubes, dropper and tubing can be set up for many different small-scale experiments rather than one fixed practical.

Who supplies the Apparatus with a Wide Spectrum of Use?
It is supplied by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India to schools, colleges and institutes, with quantity quotations for distributors and tender contractors.

Is it safe for student use?
Small reagent amounts make it well suited to supervised student work. Students should wear eye protection and follow the teacher's instructions for any acids or gases used.
