Pascal Law Apparatus, Weinholds Type
Product Code : EL-POM-10370
Pascal Law Apparatus, Weinholds Type from Lab Exports demonstrates that the pressure of a liquid varies with the depth of the liquid column and is independent of the shape or size of the vessel. It consists of a base with a hole at the bottom to which any one of a set of glass vases of different shapes and sizes (with identical bottom openings) can be attached, a vertically adjustable index pointer to set liquid level, and a lever arm pivoted to a vertical support rod with a pressure disc at one end to close the hole and a counterpoise pan at the other. Lab Exports manufactures and exports this apparatus from India to schools, colleges and laboratories worldwide.

Key Features
- Interchangeable vases: Different shapes and sizes share identical bottom openings for consistent comparison.
- Counterpoise pan mechanism: Precisely balances the pressure disc against liquid pressure at the base.
- Adjustable index pointer: Allows precise liquid level referencing for each vase tested.
Applications
This Pascal Law Apparatus, Weinholds Type is used in physics lab experiments to show that hydrostatic pressure depends only on the depth of the liquid column, independent of container shape or size — a key concept in fluid pressure studies.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does this apparatus demonstrate?
A: That liquid pressure depends on depth, not on the shape or size of the container.
Q: Why does it use interchangeable vases?
A: To show that different-shaped vessels with the same liquid depth produce the same pressure at the base.
Q: What is the counterpoise pan for?
A: It balances against the pressure disc to measure the force from liquid pressure.
Q: What is another name for this apparatus?
A: It is also referred to as Pascal's Vases in some references.
Q: Does Lab Exports export this product internationally?
A: Yes, Lab Exports manufactures and exports physics lab equipment from India to schools, colleges and laboratories worldwide.
