Mechanical Timer 60min
Mechanical Timer 60min (Product Code: SLE/CL/59) is a spring-driven countdown timer for professional use, graduated 0 to 60 minutes and fitted with a loud, long ring-alert when the set time runs out. Because it works mechanically, it needs no batteries or mains supply, so laboratory technicians, teachers and students can rely on it for timing staining steps, incubations and sedimentation readings. It is one of the practical lab equipment accessories in India made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Typical Use
Turn the dial to the required number of minutes and the countdown starts at once; the one-minute marks make short steps such as stain contact, decolourising or a clotting-time check easy to set, while the five-minute marks cover longer incubations. When the alarm rings, the technician can move straight to the next step without watching the clock, which keeps results consistent from batch to batch.
Clip the timer to a lab coat pocket when moving between the centrifuge, the microscope and the reception desk, or stand it on the bench beside the staining tray. For teaching laboratories buying from a laboratory instruments supplier in India, a set of these timers lets each student group time its own practical work independently.
Manufacturer
This timer is part of the bench-accessory line of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala in Haryana and serves hospitals, colleges and schools. More about the company is on our company profile.
