Daniell Cell Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Daniell Cell (Product Code: SLE/CH/98) is a classic zinc–copper electrochemical cell for studying how a redox reaction between two metals and their salt solutions produces a voltage. It consists of a cylindrical zinc electrode and a copper electrode, a clay vessel and a battery glass; filled with electrolyte it supplies approx. 1.1 volts, and 4 mm jacks make connection to a meter straightforward. Chemistry and physics teachers in schools and colleges use it to introduce galvanic cells, electrode potentials and the origin of battery voltage. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, as an electrochemical cell kit for school and college labs.

Specifications

Typical Use

Prepare 10% copper sulphate and 10% zinc sulphate solutions, place each electrode in the solution of its own metal with the clay vessel keeping the two liquids apart, and connect a voltmeter to the 4 mm jacks. Students should read close to 1.1 V, and can then discuss which electrode is oxidised, which way electrons flow through the external circuit, and why the clay vessel must let ions pass while stopping the solutions from mixing freely.

After the lesson, pour out both electrolytes, rinse the clay vessel and electrodes with clean water, and let everything dry so crystals do not build up in the clay. The zinc electrode is gradually consumed as the cell works, so inspect it before each class. As part of a school chemistry lab equipment set in India, the cell links electrochemistry theory to a reading students can take themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the electrolytes included with the Daniell Cell?
No. The cell is delivered without a filling. Copper sulphate and zinc sulphate solutions, each at 10% concentration, are the suitable fillings.

What voltage does it produce?
Approximately 1.1 volts when filled with the cell electrolyte.

How do I connect it to a meter?
Through its 4 mm jacks, using leads fitted with matching plugs.

How big is it?
It stands 105 mm high with a diameter of 65 mm, small enough for student benches.

Can it power a bulb or motor?
It is intended for studying cell properties rather than as a power source, and its current capacity is not specified. Contact us if you plan a load experiment.

How should it be stored between classes?
Empty both solutions, rinse all parts with water and let them dry fully before storing.

Do you supply sets for a whole class?
Yes. Tell us how many cells you need and whether the electrolytes should be quoted too; we supply institutions in India and international markets.
