Digital Chronometer (Stopwatch) (Product Code: SCL-059/01b) is a compact digital electronic stopwatch for timing motion, oscillation and reaction experiments in the school laboratory. Its 10 mm display figures are easy for a whole group to read, and its stated accuracy is 0.01 s. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, alongside its wider line of physics lab instruments in India.

The stopwatch is the everyday timer for experiments where students start and stop the count by hand: the period of a pendulum, the time a block takes to slide down an inclined plane, or the oscillation of a mass on a spring. In simple pendulum apparatus India practicals, a good habit is to time 10 or 20 complete swings and divide, because this spreads the delay of pressing the button over many oscillations and gives a far more reliable period.
It is also handy for rate experiments in chemistry and biology, such as timing a colour change or counting pulse beats over a fixed interval. Ask students to repeat each reading at least three times and average the results, then discuss why reaction time, rather than the 0.01 s display, limits the accuracy of hand timing.
This stopwatch is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala in Haryana and prepares physics and general science apparatus for educational buyers. Details of the business are on our company profile.
Timing is only half of most motion experiments; these catalogue items complete the set-up:

How fine are the readings on this stopwatch?
The stated accuracy is 0.01 s. With hand timing, human reaction time is usually the larger source of error, so repeat and average readings.
Does it come with a battery?
Yes, it is provided with a battery, so it is ready to use on arrival.
How big is the stopwatch?
It measures 30 x 50 x 15 mm, with a stated deviation of 10 mm on each side, and the display figures are 10 mm high.
How should it be looked after?
Keep it dry and away from direct heat, wipe it with a dry cloth, and remove the battery if the stopwatch will be stored for a long break such as the summer vacation.
Is a calibration certificate available for timing accuracy?
Please raise this with us before ordering through the contact page so we can discuss what documentation is possible.
What warranty applies?
Warranty terms are confirmed in each quotation; ask our team through the contact page.
Can you supply class sets for several laboratories?
Yes. Quote the product code SCL-059/01b with the number of units and delivery location; we supply schools and distributors across India and international markets.
