About This Product
Samples are placed in capillary tubes and inserted into the aluminium block, then watched through the magnifying lens under the LED lamp while the temperature is read on the thermometer. There is no complicated programming. The capillary tubes supplied are open ended, and one end should be sealed using a Bunsen burner before use. Export supply of the Analogue Melting Point Apparatus can be arranged to laboratories and schools in Niger, Croatia, Lesotho, Moldova and Montenegro.
