Spectro Meter (Product Code: SCL/AG26-121) is a prism and grating spectrometer used to measure angles of deviation, refractive index and wavelengths of light in college and senior-school physics laboratories. Its collimator and telescope are heavy castings, and angles are read on a 170 mm diameter circle scale graduated 0–360° with a spring-loaded vernier. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, for buyers who need a laboratory spectrometer in India or abroad.

The instrument covers the standard optics practicals of undergraduate and senior secondary courses. With a glass prism on the table, students find the angle of the prism and the angle of minimum deviation, then calculate refractive index and dispersive power. Swapping the prism for a diffraction grating in the holder lets them measure the wavelengths of spectral lines from a sodium or other discharge lamp, which is why it is often listed as a prism spectrometer in India's practical syllabi.
Good readings start with setup: level the prism table using its three screws, focus the eyepiece on the cross wire, then focus the telescope and collimator for parallel light. Keep the slit narrow for sharp lines, lock the relevant screw before using the fine adjustment, and add the vernier reading to the main scale value for each angle. The carrying box keeps the optics protected between sessions.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the Spectro Meter. The company makes this spectrometer at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, rather than sourcing it from a trader, and supplies it factory-direct to physics departments, colleges, schools, distributors and importers in India and international markets.
Because the maker handles your enquiry itself, questions about matching instruments for a repeat order or about replacement accessories such as the prism clamp or grating holder go straight to the manufacturer — just ask us. Production takes place at the company's licensed factory at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala (Factory Licence AMB-ONLINE-CHD-J-414), and the company is registered under CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597.

What scale does the Spectro Meter use?
The Spectro Meter has a 170 mm diameter circle scale graduated from 0 to 360° in 1° divisions, read with a spring-loaded vernier of rust-proof metal. The scale rotates independently and can be fixed in place with its locking screw.
What accessories come with the Spectro Meter?
The Spectro Meter comes with a small screwdriver, a tommy bar, a prism clamp for prisms up to 40 mm high and one diffraction grating holder with a 25 × 25 mm aperture. It is packed in a sturdy box with a carrying handle, plus an instructions and maintenance manual.
Can the Spectro Meter be used with a diffraction grating?
Yes, the Spectro Meter includes a diffraction grating holder with a 25 × 25 mm aperture, so grating experiments can be set up on the prism table. The grating itself is not listed in the contents, so add it to your enquiry if you need one.
What light source is needed with the Spectro Meter?
The Spectro Meter needs a separate light source at the collimator slit, such as a sodium lamp for monochromatic work. Lamps are not listed among its contents, so the Sodium Lamp Kit or Sodium Spectral Lamp can be quoted with it on request.
Who manufactures the Spectro Meter?
The Spectro Meter is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. It is supplied factory-direct to colleges, schools, universities and dealers in India and international markets, with quotations coming from the manufacturer itself.
What should a quotation request for the Spectro Meter specify?
A quotation request for the Spectro Meter should specify the number of instruments, any prisms, gratings or lamps needed with them, the delivery location and whether the order is for export. Send the list through the contact page for a combined quote.
Ask for a Spectro Meter quotation on the contact page, or build a full optics list in the enquiry cart with lamps and prisms and send it in one go. Quotations come direct from the manufacturer.
