A copper water bath heats glassware indirectly: the bath sits on a tripod and gauze over a burner, the water is brought to a simmer, and the vessel rests on the concentric rings so it is warmed by hot water and steam rather than a direct flame. Chemistry classes use it to evaporate salt solutions in a dish until crystals begin to form, to dry precipitates gently, and to warm test tubes for reactions that must not be overheated.
Copper conducts heat well, so the water warms evenly across the bowl. Choose the ring size so the vessel sits securely, keep the water above the base of the vessel and top up before it boils dry, and lift the bath by its 2 handles only once it has cooled. It remains a staple of chemistry lab equipment in India for school practical benches.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, manufactures the Water Bath Copper SCL-602/049 at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Because the company is the OEM, schools and colleges buy it factory-direct instead of through a trader, and repeat orders for extra benches or replacement ring sets are handled by the manufacturer — ask us.
Dealers and importers in India and international markets are supplied the same way. See the ScienceLab profile for company details.

How is the Water Bath Copper heated?
The Water Bath Copper SCL-602/049 is normally placed on a tripod and wire gauze over a Bunsen burner or similar heat source. Once the water simmers, vessels on the rings are heated gently by hot water and steam instead of a direct flame.
What are the concentric rings on the Water Bath Copper for?
The concentric rings on the Water Bath Copper let you change the size of the opening. Remove rings until an evaporating dish, beaker or flask sits securely, so it is heated by steam and hot water without dropping into the bath.
Does the Water Bath Copper have a thermostat?
No thermostat or heater is listed for the Water Bath Copper SCL-602/049; it is a plain copper bath heated from below. For a set, controlled temperature, consider an electric thermostatic water bath, or ask us which option suits your practical.

Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) is the OEM manufacturer of the Water Bath Copper SCL-602/049, making it at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplying schools, colleges, dealers and importers directly.
How should a copper water bath be cleaned?
After use, let the Water Bath Copper cool, empty it and dry it thoroughly to reduce scale and tarnish. Wash it with mild detergent when needed and avoid harsh abrasive scouring, which can wear the copper surface over time.
What should a quotation request for the Water Bath Copper include?
