These Bright-Line (Rhodium coated) glass Haemacytometers are designed for accurate counting of cells in blood or other fluids, with one-piece glass construction, an H-shaped moat to form two counting areas (plateaus) and ""V"" slash at the loading side of each plateau. Each plateau features enhanced Neubauer rulings, the ruled surface being 0.1 mm below the cover glass, limiting the volume of blood or fluid over square mm to 0.1 cu.mm and over each of 400 squares (within the central square mm) to 0.00025 cu. mm. Contact of the flat, polished cover glass surfaces with cover glass supports produces an exact volume of fluid over the counting area. The difference in surface tension characteristics between the metallic surface on the chamber and the polished cover glass assures smooth capillarity for precise loading and more even cell distribution. Supplied as double chamber with two cover glasses or kit which includes double counting chamber, cover glasses and red and white pipettes, all in protective case. Spare/replacement glass cover glasses are also available, as pack of 2. • Bright Line (Rhodium coated) counting chamber • Improved Neubauer ruling pattern • Cell Depth: 0.100 mm ±2 • Volume: 0.1 µL To clean the counting chamber after use: remove the cover glass and clean with water or mild cleaning solution (e.g. 10% bleach solution).

The perfect choice for experiments with, for example, electron beam tubes requiring voltages up to 500 V DC at a low current level. The unit also provides two auxiliary outputs: A continuously variable negative voltage (down to -50 V DC), series connected with the 500 V output, and a stepwise selectable AC voltage with galvanic isolation from the DC outputs. Continuous adjustment of the -50 V and 500 V voltages. The current is limited to 50 mA. Voltage and current can be read from separate displays. A switch selects which output to monitor. The AC output delivers up to 3 A and is provided with a thermo fuse. Note: Not recommended for students due to high output current.

This has to be the best signal/function generator available for educational use! Developed in conjunction with physics teachers and designed specifically for education, this unit provides all the functionality you need for physics teaching. really useful feature for those less familiar with using signal generators is that for basic use, you just operate two buttons: One for frequency and one for amplitude that's it! There is, of course, far more sophistication for those who require it. If you want to change waveform or to utilise the step and sweep modes, the display keeps you updated on the status of the generator. Unique frequency control: The frequency is set by speed sensitive button. Turn slowly to set the display's last digit, turn faster and the response accelerates designed to work intuitively in practical experiments. Drives speakers, vibration generator etc. directly: The built-in 10 power amplifier effortlessly drives power appliances e.g. vibration generator. The amplifier can deliver more than amp for all frequencies between 0.001 Hz and 100 kHz. Step mode: In many applications you need to study physical system at fundamental frequency and at different multiples of that frequency. The special step feature makes this task incredibly easy. Once the fundamental frequency has been determined (e.g. of spring connected to vibration generator), other harmonics (or overtones) can be demonstrated by simply pressing button, which changes the frequency to progressive multiples of the fundamental frequency. Sweep mode: The generator can sweep through frequency range in order to discover eventual resonances. You decide the frequency range and the speed. You have the choice between linear sweep (fixed number of Hz per unit time) and logarithmic sweep (fixed number of octaves per unit time). Advanced Features: The generator connects to your PC through standard USB cable and acts as USB flash drive. Custom defined waveforms (e.g. created by means of spreadsheet) can be saved to the generator. Sequences of settings can be programmed for automatic execution.
A high-quality simple-to-use student signal generator with a range of applications. Operated with just three buttons: Waveform, Frequency and Amplitude.
