An improved version of the classic Bell in Jar experiment. The base is fitted with rubber sheet which ensures a good seal between the jar and pump plate, without the need for vacuum grease. The pump plate is lightweight aluminium, mounted on a heavy tripod base, with a tube connection to the central pillar to evacuate air from the bell jar on top. A stopcock allows the chamber to be sealed, allowing the vacuum to be kept when turning off the pump. The bell jar is robust acrylic which is safe in the event of implosion, and has flat flange to ensure good seal with the pump plate. The bell is suspended by wires to reduce conduction of sound to the bell jar. Connection is by 4 mm sockets on the top bung. The bell can be heard getting quieter as the air is evacuated. Then, by closing the tap, turning off and disconnecting the pump, and then slowly allowing the air back in, the bell can be heard getting louder, as air is required to conduct the sound. The high-quality bell operates on 4-6 V DC or AC. Requires suitable vacuum pump, and heavy-walled vacuum/pressure tubing. Dimensions: Bell Jar • Height 260 mm to neck • Internal diameter 140 mm • External diameter flange 180 mm Pump Plate • Height 195 mm • Diameter 250 mm

Pump plate for SO180500.

Bell jar for SO180500.

An effective and compact alternative to the traditional Bell in a Jar apparatus. Comprising a strong acrylic vessel, with a simple buzzer circuit. The vessel has an outlet through which air can be evacuated using a vacuum pump (not included). The buzzer is mounted on foam to reduce transmission of sound to the vessel walls. When the air is evacuated, the sound of the buzzer is attenuated, as there is no air through which the sound is transmitted to the walls of the vessel. Dimensions (H x dia): 140 x 100 mm

This laser emits an intense monochromatic red beam of wavelength 630 nm at 0.9 mW (Class II operation). Typical beam divergence is approximately 1 millirad. The laser is ideal for the demonstration of the behaviour of light in a visually effective way, reinforcing the practical work carried out by pupils using white light. It is an essential tool to develop basic understanding of the passage of light through different media, slits etc. The laser beam can be modulated by applying an external digital or analogue waveform to the 3.5 mm jack socket on the rear panel. Alternatively, the beam can be modulated by the internal generator which produces 0.1 µs pulses at approximately 1 MHz. This allows speed of light experiments to be easily performed. The passage of light through light guides and optical fibres can be demonstrated by filling a glass or plastic tube or U-tube with very dilute milk. The growth of laser-based communication systems and research into the use of lasers in computers of the future make this an essential piece of equipment to bring up-to-date relevance into teaching. The laser is powered by a 6LR61 (PP3) battery or external smoothed and regulated supply, has adjustable focus, no warm-up time and has a key operated safety switch. Housed in a robust anodised aluminium case. Supplied with key.
