Spectrum tubes kit, with power unit
Product Code : SCL-OS-12850
The Spectrum Tubes Kit with Power Unit by Educational Instrument combines educational spectrum tubes with a compatible power unit for supervised laboratory demonstrations. The kit helps students see how different gases emit characteristic colours and spectral line patterns when electrically excited.
This apparatus is suitable for practical lessons in atomic structure, wave optics, spectroscopy, and modern physics. It can be used with a wooden spectroscope, diffraction grating, or other optical viewing equipment for clear classroom observation.

How to Use the Spectrum Tubes Kit with Power Unit
Place the power unit on a dry, stable laboratory bench.
Select the required spectrum tube and check it for cracks or damage.
Insert the tube into the compatible holder or connection point.
Connect the power unit to the correct mains supply.
Switch on the unit only under teacher or laboratory supervisor guidance.
Observe the emitted light through a spectroscope or diffraction grating.
Switch off the unit before changing or removing the tube.
Safety note: Spectrum tube power units may use high voltage. Do not touch tube contacts, terminals, or connected parts while the unit is powered.
Care & Maintenance
Store the tubes in protective packaging after use.
Disconnect the power unit before cleaning, inspection, or tube replacement.
Keep the unit dry and away from dust, chemicals, and impact.
Do not use cracked tubes, damaged cables, or loose terminals.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Spectrum Tubes Kit with Power Unit used for?
It is used to demonstrate atomic emission spectra from gas-filled tubes. Students can observe how each gas produces a unique line spectrum.
Does the kit include the power unit?
Yes, the product name indicates a kit with power unit. The exact rating and supplied components should be confirmed before ordering.
Can this kit be used in schools?
Yes. It is suitable for school and college physics laboratories when used under trained supervision.
Which gases are supplied with the kit?
The supplied gases must be confirmed before order. Common educational spectrum tubes may include different gases, but the actual configuration should be verified.
Is a spectroscope required?
A spectroscope or diffraction grating is recommended for observing clear spectral lines. A glass lens set may also support related optics experiments.
Is the kit safe for students?
The kit should be used only under teacher supervision because the power unit may involve high voltage. Students should not touch tubes or terminals during operation.
