Water Bath
Water Bath (Product Code: SLE/WB/02) is a hemispherical copper bath used to heat beakers, flasks and dishes gently over boiling water in school and college chemistry laboratories. Teachers choose it where a simple, flame-heated bath is wanted: it is made of thick copper sheet, with a set of concentric rings on top and 2 handles for lifting. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to schools, colleges and dealers.

What Is the Copper Water Bath Used For?
A copper water bath is the traditional way to warm or evaporate a liquid without putting the glass straight into a flame. The bath is partly filled with water and heated from below, usually on a tripod stand and wire gauze over a Bunsen burner. Rings are lifted off until the opening suits the vessel, which then sits in the steam and hot water — ideal for evaporating a solution towards crystallisation, drying a precipitate in a china dish or keeping test tubes warm during food tests.
Copper spreads heat quickly and evenly, and the hemispherical form sits steadily on a tripod. Keep water in the bath at all times while heating, because a copper bath heated dry can be damaged. Use the 2 handles with heat-resistant gloves or a cloth, and empty and dry the bath after each practical so it stays in good order for the next class. It remains a staple item of chemistry lab equipment for schools in India.
