Vacuum Chamber
  •  A cylindrical stainless steel chamber (Volume ~14.5L) equipped with 2 view ports, a door and 15 ports. Chamber is covered with ultra thin sheet heaters, cable heaters and tape heaters to heat up the chamber to maintain constant temperature of chamber body.
  • Low vacuum capability <0.01 Pascal.
  • Used for condensation and boiling experiments.
Boiler
  • A cylindrical stainless steel canister (Volume ~6L) equipped with electrical heaters to heat up the liquid inside.
  • Used to purify liquids (water and others) of dissolved gases.
