TEL-10400 Critical Point Apparatus
A high-precision apparatus for studying the compression and liquefaction of a gas, determining the critical point and recording isotherms in P-V (Clapeyron) diagrams. The test gas is sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), which has a critical temperature of 318.6 K (45.5°C) and a critical pressure of 3.76 MPa (37.6 bars), allowing for a simple experiment set-up.
The apparatus includes a transparent measuring cell that is highly resistant to leakage and compression. The volume inside the cell is changed via a finely adjustable handwheel, the change being indicated by a combination of a fixed and a rotary scale to an accuracy of 1/1000 of the maximum volume. The pressure is generated by a hydraulic system containing castor oil of medically approved quality. The measuring cell and hydraulic system are separated by a cap seal which rolls in as the volume increases. This design means the pressure gradient between the measuring cell and oil chamber is negligible. A manometer measures gas pressure instead of oil pressure without taking up any dead space inside the measuring cell. During transitions from the gaseous to the liquid phases and vice versa, it is therefore possible to observe the formation of the first drops of liquid and disappearance of the last gas bubbles.
The measuring cell is enclosed in a transparent water chamber. A circulation thermostat allows the temperature to be maintained at a highly constant value, which can be monitored by means of a thermometer. Practical indications of the volume, pressure and temperature permit easy recording of P-V or P-V-T diagrams providing qualitatively correct results. Pressure and temperature-dependent volumetric corrections also provide quantitatively accurate results comparing favorably with standard reference values.

TEL-14400 Immersion/Circulation Thermostat
This immersion/circulation thermostat has a closed bath for thermostatic control of water tanks or external apparatus with non-flammable liquids at temperatures of up to 100 °C. The fully electronic continuous controller and powerful circulation pump with a rotatable pump housing ensure ideal bath circulation and, therefore, a high degree of temperature constancy. The rotary knob is used for analog setting of setpoint values. Actual values are indicated by a glass thermometer. Clearly visible indicator lights for heating functions and errors increase operational safety. Includes a connection for a continuous cooler, a cooling coil which makes use of tap water as the coolant, a thermometer with a display range of 0 - 100°C and a plug.
