Key Features:

• A self-contained, benchtop base unit with four optional experiments .
• Simple and safe to use, its foolproof fi ttings allow students to change and connect the optional experiments quickly and easily without tools.
• Clear digital displays of all readings (you do not need a computer to work it or take readings).
• The experiments each have a bedplate with a clear schematic diagram to show students how they connect, and the measuring point positions. 
• Can connect to Versatile Data Acquisition System. 

Description:
It provides cold water and heater power to the optionalexperiments and all the instruments needed to measure their performance.The base unit’s water system connects to a suitable coldwater supply and drain. It includes a hand-operated valveto help give a controllable water flow and a simple returnpipe, both colour-coded.The water connections to the optional experiments areself-sealing quick connectors for safety and simplicity.The inlet and outlet fluid streams have diff erent colours toreduce errors.

Changing an experiment takes less than a minute.The base unit provides a variable and measured electricalcurrent to the heater in each experiment and works with a safety switch to stop the heater from becoming too hot. It also includes sockets for the thermocouples built into each optional experiment.Clear, multiline digital displays on the base unit show the temperatures and heater power of each experiment. A spare area to the right of the base unit frame allows you to fi t the optionalVDAS-F hardware.

Each optional experiment is on a bedplate that has a clear schematic diagram showing the connections and measuring point positions. The bedplate fi xes to the base unit with thumbscrews (students need no tools).
Note: You need at least one of the optional experiments. You cannot do experiments with just the base unit. You can do tests with or without a computer connected.However, for quicker tests with easier recording of results, can supply the optional Versatile Data Acquisition System.

This gives accurate real-time data capture, monitoring and display, calculation and charting of all the important readings on a computer (computer not included).
