ZM8207 Pascal’s Apparatus Didactic Equipment Lab Equipment Prices Fluid Mechanics Laboratory Equipment Description:
This apparatus, designed to demonstrate Pascal’s principle, consists of a machined body incorporating a horizontal flexible diaphragm to which one of three alternative glass vessels can be fitted.
The diameter at the base of each vessel is common but the shape of each vessel varies; one parallel sided, one conical and one tapering inwards.
The diaphragm, located at the base of the vessel, conveys the force from the water inside the vessel to a lever arm with a sliding counterweight. Technical details:
