Vernier Melt Station

Vernier's new Melt Station connects to LabQuest, LabQuest Mini, Go!Link, or LabPro. It is used to measure the melting temperature of solid substances.

  • Accurate results using built-in RTD over a range of 30°C to 260°C
  • High-quality 6X viewing lens for clear observation of the samples
  • Innovative, adjustable tilt allows for optimal viewing angle
  • Cooling fan reduces time between tests

Each Melt Station comes with 100 standard capillary tubes. Additional packages of 100 are available.

Vernier Spectrovis Plus

Having a CCD Array Spectrometer/Fluorometer combination is now affordable for each of your lab stations! Array spectrometer technology allows you to collect a full wavelength spectrum, Absorbance, Percent Transmittance, or Intensity in less than a second. Once the peak wavelength is determined, you can easily determine the concentration of a solution (Beer’s law) or monitor rates of reaction.

With its two different excitation wavelengths, SpectroVis Plus can quantitatively measure the fluorescence spectra of many compounds, such as chlorophyll, fluorescein, GFP, and more.

Say Goodbye to Long Queues at the GC Station

Now there's a portable instrument for separating, analysing, and identifying substances contained in a volatile liquid or gaseous sample.

 

Vernier Mini Gas Chromatograph

The Vernier Gas Chromatograph, or “Mini GC”, has all of the key components of a traditional gas chromatograph, including an injection port, temperature and pressure controls, a thin capillary column through which different substances pass at different rates depending on various chemical and physical properties, and a sensor for detecting the arrival of compounds.

The Mini GC also has the added benefit of a new patented MEMS chip sensor which allows for room air to be used as a carrier gas. Its compact size makes it an ideal solution for students to learn the principles of gas chromatography.

Vernier Melt Station

The Wide-Range Temperature Probe features a wide temperature range from -20°C to 330°C. The high upper limit of the sensor allows for melting point determinations of most organic compounds. It uses Resistance Temperature Detection (RTD) technology to establish a ±0.1°C accuracy throughout its temperature range, as well as excellent stability and repeatability.
