Apparatus Conductivity Cam
Apparatus Conductivity Cam (Product Code: SLE/PHY/07) is a thermal-conductivity demonstrator used to compare how well different metals conduct heat in school and college physics classes. Metal rods are mounted vertically on the outside of the base of a cylindrical copper vessel, and the indices supplied with it let students mark results so they can be studied later. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

| Manufacturer | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM |
| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
What Is the Metal Conductivity Apparatus Used For?
The vessel is supported by its rim in a ring on a retort stand, so the rods hang below it. Hot water fills the copper vessel and heat travels down each rod at a rate set by the conductivity of its metal. A common way to make the difference visible is to coat the rods thinly with wax beforehand: the wax melts furthest along the better conductors, and students use the indices to mark how far the melting has reached on each rod.
Because the indices hold the readings, the class can compare the rods after the apparatus has cooled, rank the metals from better to poorer conductor, and relate the result to everyday choices such as copper-bottomed pans. Keep the vessel steady in its ring while filling it, keep hands clear of the hot copper, and let everything cool before the indices are handled.
OEM Manufacturer
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which markets its products under the ScienceLab name, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this conductivity apparatus and one of the physics instruments manufacturers based in Ambala, Haryana. The apparatus is manufactured at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, and shipped factory-direct to schools, colleges, science dealers and importers. For replacement indices or a repeat order, ask us directly; our company profile has more about the company.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Apparatus Conductivity Cam demonstrate?
The Apparatus Conductivity Cam demonstrates that different metals conduct heat at different rates. Heat from hot water in its copper vessel travels down metal rods mounted on the base, and students compare how far the heating effect progresses along each rod.
Which metals are the rods of the Apparatus Conductivity Cam made from?
The metals used for the rods of the Apparatus Conductivity Cam are not listed on this page. Please ask us through the contact page for the rod metals and number of rods before you order, especially if your syllabus names specific metals.
What are the indices on the Apparatus Conductivity Cam for?
The indices supplied with the Apparatus Conductivity Cam let students mark the position reached on each rod, so the observations can be studied at a later stage, after the apparatus has cooled or when the class returns to its results.
How is the Apparatus Conductivity Cam mounted?
The Apparatus Conductivity Cam has a thick rim at the top of its cylindrical copper vessel. The rim rests on a ring fitted to a retort stand, which holds the vessel steady with the metal rods hanging vertically below it.
Who manufactures the Apparatus Conductivity Cam?
The Apparatus Conductivity Cam is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and is supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges and dealers.
Can the Apparatus Conductivity Cam be supplied in bulk or for export?
Yes, the Apparatus Conductivity Cam can be quoted in quantity for schools, colleges, tender buyers, dealers and importers in India and international markets. Share the number of units, any retort stands needed and the delivery destination through our contact page.
