Spirit Lamp
Spirit Lamp (Product Code: SCL335/66) is a stainless steel alcohol lamp used to give a small, steady flame for gentle heating and for flaming tools in laboratories without a gas supply. It holds 60 ml of fuel, and biology teachers use it for warming food-test tubes, flaming loops and heat-fixing smears on slides. A staple of microbiology lab equipment in India, it is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is the Spirit Lamp Used For?
Spirit lamps burn an alcohol fuel through a wick, giving a cooler and quieter flame than a gas burner. That makes them well suited to warming a test tube of Benedict's reagent in a water-bath set-up, passing an inoculating loop or forceps through the flame before and after handling a culture, and briefly heat-fixing a bacterial smear before staining. Because the lamp is self-contained, it can be placed on any bench, in a field station or in a classroom that has no gas supply, and the 60 ml reservoir suits intermittent heating during a practical.
Refill only when the lamp is out and cool, away from other flames, and wipe away any spilled fuel before lighting. Stand the lamp on a stable, heat-resistant surface, never carry it while lit, and put the flame out by smothering it rather than blowing. The stainless steel body will not shatter if knocked over, which is one reason schools often choose metal lamps for student benches when buying school biology lab equipment.
OEM Manufacturer
ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this stainless steel spirit lamp and makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Because the lamp comes from the factory rather than a reseller, schools, colleges, dealers and importers deal directly with the maker on price and supply. For spares or extra lamps for a new lab, ask us and the manufacturer itself will respond. More about the company is on our company profile.

- Glass Spirit Lamp — a glass-bodied alternative where the fuel level should be visible.
- Test Tube Holder — keeps fingers clear when a tube is warmed over the flame.
- Test Tubes (With Rim) — for heating small samples in food and enzyme tests.
- Plain Slides — for smears that are heat-fixed over the flame before staining.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much fuel does the Spirit Lamp hold?
The Spirit Lamp holds 60 ml of fuel, enough for intermittent heating and flaming during a normal practical. Refill it only when the flame is out and the lamp has cooled, and always away from other flames.
What fuel should be used in a spirit lamp?
A spirit lamp is designed for alcohol-based fuels such as methylated spirit or denatured ethanol. Never fill the spirit lamp with petrol, kerosene or other volatile fuels, which can flare dangerously.
Why choose a stainless steel spirit lamp over glass?
A stainless steel spirit lamp does not break if it is knocked over on a busy student bench, while a glass lamp lets users see the fuel level. Choose the body that suits your students and your bench layout.
Is the spirit lamp hot enough to replace a Bunsen burner?
The spirit lamp gives a gentler flame intended for light heating, warming test tubes and flaming loops. For strong heating or for boiling larger volumes, a gas burner remains the better tool.
Is a wick or fuel supplied with the spirit lamp?
Whether a wick or fuel comes with the spirit lamp is not detailed in our listing. Please contact us to confirm what is included and to add spirit to your order if needed.
Who manufactures the Spirit Lamp SCL335/66?
The Spirit Lamp is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools and dealers get quotations for the stainless steel lamp straight from the manufacturer.
Can you supply spirit lamps for a whole lab or for export?
Yes, the spirit lamp is quoted for whole labs as well as for dealer and importer orders in India and international markets. Tell us the quantity, code SCL335/66 and the delivery destination for a quotation.
