Straight Cooler (Condenser)
Product Code : SCL-CL-11479
Straight Cooler (Condenser) (SKU SCL-CL-11479) is a Liebig-type glass condenser, 480 mm long, in which cold water flowing through an outer jacket cools and condenses vapour passing along the straight inner tube. It is the core of simple distillation and reflux set-ups in school, college and training chemistry labs. Enquiries for it are answered by Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, which supplies schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The Liebig pattern and a 480 mm length are the headline entries in this condenser's table. In short, the long cooling path suits water and common solvents, and the transparent glass is heat and chemical resistant, so students can watch condensation happen inside the tube.

Applications and Experiments for the Straight Cooler (Liebig Condenser)
The condenser is used to turn vapour back into liquid during distillation, and, fitted vertically, to return vapour to a boiling flask during reflux. It supports separation and purification practicals from Class 9 science to B.Sc. organic chemistry and small-scale water distillation.
- Class 9 science: separating acetone and water, or another pair of miscible liquids, by distillation.
- Class 11 chemistry: purifying an organic liquid by simple distillation, with the condenser held in a Three Prong Glassware Holding Clamp.
- B.Sc. organic practicals: refluxing reaction mixtures and distilling off solvents.
- Water treatment topics: preparing distilled water and discussing why it is used in labs.
Connect the cooling water so it enters at the lower inlet and leaves at the upper outlet; this keeps the jacket full. Clamp the condenser securely to a Laboratory Stand and never heat a closed system.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Straight Cooler (Condenser) is supplied as a single 480 mm Liebig-type glass condenser. Rubber tubing for the water supply, clamps, flasks and the receiver adapter are separate items that can be added to your quotation to build a complete distillation train.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
We quote condensers singly as replacements or in sets for a full distillation practical. Your quotation states the packing, delivery time and price for the quantity, and other laboratory distillation apparatus in India such as flasks, adapters and tubing can be quoted with it.
Science Lab Supplies is a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, able to ship to buyers in Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq and Nigeria. Condenser lengths and quantities can be confirmed by writing through the contact page, a distillation-train list can be saved in the enquiry cart, and public procurement is explained on the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a straight cooler?
It is another name for a Liebig condenser: a straight glass tube inside a water jacket. Vapour passing through the inner tube is cooled by the circulating water and condenses to liquid.
How long is this condenser?
It is 480 mm long, which provides a long cooling section for distillation and reflux of water and common organic solvents in teaching labs, compared with the 200 mm Liebig condenser in the same range.
Who supplies the Straight Cooler (Condenser)?
This condenser reaches buyers through Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, which prices it on a quotation and handles packing and shipment for schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
What else do I need for a distillation set?
A boiling flask, a stand with clamps, rubber tubing for the cooling water, a receiver adapter and a receiving flask. All of these can be quoted together with the condenser.
