Hypsometer Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-PL-12389
Jlab Export is a leading Hypsometer Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Hypsometer (code EL-PL-12389) is a copper boiling vessel with a steam-jacketed inner tube, a lid whose tubule holds the thermometer under test in a bung, a side draining tube and a manometric tube, used to find the upper fixed point of a thermometer and boiling points at pressures away from standard atmospheric. JLab manufactures the hypsometer in Ambala, India.

Why the Bulb Sits in Steam, Not Water
Boiling water can be slightly hotter than its true boiling point, because dissolved impurities raise it and the liquid may superheat. The steam above it is at one definite temperature for a given pressure. So the thermometer is pushed through the bung only until its bulb is in the steam in the inner tube, clear of the water, with the expected steam-point mark just above the bung. Steam in the outer jacket keeps the inner tube at the same temperature, so the walls do not cool the steam around the bulb.
Reading the Pressure
A boiling point means little without its pressure. The manometric tube shows whether the steam inside is at the pressure of the room: with its two levels equal, the pressures match, and a barometer reading taken at the same moment gives the pressure for that steam point. Correcting the reading to standard atmospheric pressure gives the upper fixed point of the thermometer.
Parts and Thermometers
- Rubber Cork for Hypsometer — assorted red rubber corks made for the hypsometer.
- Laboratory Thermometer — single-scale glass thermometer whose range runs past the steam point.
The Physics Lab range has further heat and thermometry apparatus.
