Atmospheric Pressure Demonstrator (ME-8966)
Dramatically illustrate the force of atmospheric pressure
As you pull up on the handle, a low pressure region is created.
Reveal the full force of atmospheric pressure with this simple demo. Just place this rubber sheet on the smooth surface of an object and lift.
How it works:
A partial vacuum forms under the Atmospheric Pressure Demonstrator when it is placed on a smooth, flat surface and pulled straight upward with the handle. The substantial pressure differential created means you can lift sizable objects such as boards, stools and more.
Here's What You Need:
Magdeburg Plates (SE-9717)
Perform a classic demonstration
These two plates are a modern and versatile rendition of a classic demonstration:
- Air is evacuated using a syringe; no vacuum pump needed
- Two different "O" rings allow 2 different size areas
Includes:
- Polycarbonate Plates (2)
- O-rings (2)
- Syringe (60 cc)
- Connecting Tube with one-way valve with inline connector for optional Pressure Sensor
