The Gas Pressure Sensor can be used to monitor pressure changes in a gas. The range is wide enough to perform Boyle's law yet it is sensitive enough to conduct vapor-pressure or pressure-temperature experiments. Biology teachers can use the Gas Pressure Sensor to monitor transpiration or respiration in an enclosed environment.

The Polarimeter can be used to measure chiral properties of optically active samples without chemically modifying or destroying the sample. This is a vertical polarimeter that uses a 589 nm LED, a fixed polarizer, and a manually rotated polarizer to detect changes in rotation of plane-polarized light in the presence of an optically active compound. Used with Vernier technology, students no longer have to determine the optical maximum with their eye but have a graph that shows a clear change in the light's polarization.

The Constant Current System is a DC power source with a built-in current probe designed for use in electrochemistry experiments, and as such eliminates the need for a separate power supply when performing electroplating and electrolysis experiments in Chemistry. It is capable of delivering 0.6 A at 5VDC
Use the Constant Current System to explore Faraday's law and determine Avogadro's Number.
Note: It can only be used in conjunction with its own built-in power supply. It cannot be used to measure the current of a circuit using a different power supply.
