Steam Heater to Heat Lead Shots Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-MH-11426
Quick Answer: The Steam Heater to Heat Lead Shots is a 1-litre copper chamber that brings lead shots or other metal samples to steam temperature before they go into a calorimeter. Steam from a separate boiler or steam generator enters through an inlet tube and leaves by an outlet tube.

About This Product
In the method of mixtures a metal sample must start at a known temperature. The heater holds the lead shots in steam, at about 100 degrees Celsius at standard atmospheric pressure, until they reach equilibrium; students then transfer them quickly to water in a calorimeter and use the temperature rise to work out the specific heat capacity of the metal. The same set-up helps show conduction through the copper wall and the idea of thermal equilibrium. The Steam Heater to Heat Lead Shots can be supplied on export terms to France, Armenia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Comoros, Grenada and Liberia.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the steam heater produce its own steam?
No. Steam comes from an external source such as a steam generator or boiler and is passed into the copper chamber through the inlet tube.
What temperature are the lead shots heated to?
They are held at the temperature of boiling steam, approximately 100 degrees Celsius at standard atmospheric pressure, until thermal equilibrium is reached.
