Standard Fortin's Barometer
Product Code : EL-PLE-16317Eduscope India is a leading Standard Fortin's Barometer Quick Answer:The Standard Fortin's Barometer is a high-precision mercury instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure, making it dependablephysics lab equipment Indiaschools and colleges rely on for pressure demonstrations and practicals — a durable, export-ready choice for institutions sourcinglaboratory equipment school Indiawide and overseas.
Construction and Specifications
The mercury column is housed in a glass tube within an enamelled and lacquered brass case, mounted on a polished wooden board fitted with plates for convenient wall mounting in the laboratory. The barometer measures atmospheric pressure over a range of600-800 mmHgwith fine divisions of0.05 mmHg, allowing precise readings for pressure-related experiments. It is fitted with an accompanying thermometer reading on both centigrade and Fahrenheit scales, covering a temperature range of-16°C to 46°C, so that temperature corrections can be applied alongside pressure observations. Its wall-mounted brass-cased design makes it a stable, long-lasting fixture for physics laboratories teaching atmospheric pressure and barometric principles.
