Product Description
Zoom is a esteemed manufacturer and exporter. It has all types of lab equipments and microscopes.
This apparatus is used to measure surface tension by Capillary rise in a small bore.
It comprises six glass capillary tubes 125 mm long, ends ground flat, of different bores, supported by a metal frame in a shallow metal trough.
Efficient Multi-Sample AnalysisThe apparatus is engineered to handle up to 46 capillary tubes at a time, making it ideal for labs that require quick melting point analysis of multiple samples. Its robust heating system and uniform heat distribution accelerate and standardize the testing process, helping professionals save time while ensuring consistent results.
Precision and Safety CombinedWith a capillary thermostat for accurate temperature control (1C), the device maintains optimal safety with leak-proof construction, safety cap, and built-in fuse protection. Accurate sample observation is facilitated through a large viewing window and integrated magnifier, ensuring reliable results with each measurement.
FAQs of Capillary Tubes Apparatus:
Q: How does the Capillary Tubes Apparatus determine the melting point of substances?
A: The apparatus heats sealed capillary tubes containing the sample using an immersion heater. As the temperature rises (displayed on an analog dial or scale), the melting process is viewed through a large magnified window. When the substance melts, the temperature is noted as the melting point.
Q: What safety features are present in this melting point apparatus?
A: For user protection, the apparatus includes a leak-proof body, a safety cap, and internal fuse protection. These features guard against accidental spills, over-heating, and electrical issues during operation.
Q: When is this apparatus typically used in laboratories?
A: The Capillary Tubes Apparatus is used whenever precise determination of a chemicals melting point is required, such as in routine analyses, research experiments, and educational demonstrations in medical, academic, and industrial labs.
Q: Where can the apparatus be installed and used safely?
A: This device is suitable for installation on flat laboratory benches within medical, research, or educational laboratories. It requires a mains power supply (220240V) and proper ventilation for its natural air cooling system to function efficiently.
Q: What process should be followed to operate the apparatus?
A: Place samples inside capillary tubes, insert them into the apparatus, set the desired temperature with the control knob, and monitor the heat-up via the analog scale. Watch the melting process through the magnified window and record the temperature when melting is observed.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this model over traditional methods?
A: Key advantages include the ability to test several samples at once, high accuracy (1C), uniform heating, easy insertion of capillaries, precise temperature control, and enhanced visibility with a magnifier. The durable, powder-coated, leak-proof design ensures long-term reliability and user safety.
