See Saw Water Pump STEM Lab Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-MH-12481

The See Saw Water Pump STEM Lab is a specialized educational apparatus designed by Educational Instrument India to bridge the gap between theoretical physics and practical engineering. This model demonstrates the efficiency of a Class 1 lever system integrated with a dual-piston hydraulic pump. Engineered for durability and high-frequency classroom use, this kit is an essential resource for math labs (teaching mensuration and volume) and physics labs (teaching mechanics and pressure).

Why Choose Educational Instrument India?

Our STEM labs are designed to meet the rigorous demands of institutional tenders, adhering to the standards set by CBSE, ICSE, and international educational boards.

Product Description

The See Saw Water Pump STEM Lab features a central fulcrum mounted on a stable base, supporting a horizontal lever beam (the "See-Saw"). Two precision-calibrated piston cylinders (syringe pumps) are attached to the beam. As students alternate the seesaw motion, the pistons create a vacuum that draws water from the main reservoir and pushes it through a discharge network.

Core Learning Objectives:

Mechanical Advantage: Calculating the torque and effort required based on the position of the piston relative to the fulcrum.

Fluid Mechanics: Observing the relationship between atmospheric pressure and suction.

Mensuration & Geometry: Measuring the surface area of the piston and the volume of water displaced per stroke to solve for:

How to Use the Model

Preparation: Fill the large clear reservoir with clean water. Ensure the smaller base block is securely positioned on a flat surface.

Priming the System: Gently move the see-saw beam up and down to draw water into the input tubes. Ensure the piston cylinders are clear of air bubbles for accurate volume readings.

The Experiment: Apply effort to one end of the see-saw. Observe how the downward force on one piston corresponds to the upward suction of the other.

Data Collection: Measure the distance from the fulcrum to the piston. Use the graduated markings on the cylinders to calculate the volume of water moved in 10 full strokes.

Math Integration: Calculate the surface area of the cylinder base and compare the theoretical volume output against the actual water collected.

Health and Safety Standards

At Educational Instrument India, we engineer our products to prevent common classroom health issues:

Ergonomic Design: The see-saw beam is micro-sanded to prevent splinters and skin lacerations, eliminating common dermatological health issues associated with low-quality wooden models.

Hygienic Fluid Loop: Our "Hygienic Design" uses closed-loop silicone tubing, preventing stagnant water buildup and bacterial growth that could cause respiratory or skin-contact health issues.

Non-Toxic Materials: All polymers and adhesives are 100% lead-free and hypoallergenic, ensuring a safe learning environment for students with sensitive skin.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can we use colored water to make the demonstration clearer? A: Yes. Food-grade dyes can be added to the water to make the fluid path more visible for large classroom demonstrations. Ensure the tubes are rinsed with clear water after use.

Q2: What grade level is this model suitable for? A: This model is versatile. It is used in primary schools for basic machine concepts and in high schools for complex fluid dynamics and mensuration calculations.

Q3: Is the wood treated for water resistance? A: Yes, the wooden components are treated with a non-toxic moisture barrier to prevent warping, rot, and fungal health issues during prolonged use in wet lab conditions.
