Educational Benefits & Key Features
Feature: Seasoned Hardwood Construction.
Benefit: Naturally provides high resistance to corrosive chemical vapors and aqueous spills, eliminating the oxidation and rusting issues prevalent with low-cost iron stands in long-term storage.
Feature: Adjustable Horizontal Support Arm.
Benefit: Solves the problem of varying beaker heights by allowing students to vertically position the funnel stem closer to the receiving vessel, significantly reducing reagent splashing and potential chemical exposure.
Feature: Non-Conductive and Non-Reactive Material.
Benefit: Ensures laboratory safety during diverse experimental protocols by providing a surface that does not react with spilled substances or conduct thermal energy from hot filtrates.
Feature: Beveled Funnel Apertures.
Benefit: Designed to seat borosilicate funnels securely without localized pressure points, protecting fragile laboratory glassware from mechanical stress and accidental breakage.
Feature: Weighted Stability Base.
Benefit: Lowers the center of gravity for the entire assembly, ensuring that the apparatus remains upright even when holding heavy, liquid-filled glass funnels during filtration.
Curriculum Alignment
This apparatus is precision-engineered to meet the foundational hardware requirements for STEM and NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards). It is a critical component for teaching introductory chemical separation techniques, including gravitational filtration and the preparation of saturated solutions, mandated by international primary and secondary education frameworks.
