About This Product
The lamp house is set on a stable bench or compatible optical bench, and its lamp rating, power supply and wiring are checked before switching on. It is aligned with the lens, mirror, slit, screen or other component, and its position adjusted for a clear beam or image. Students then record the ray path, focal point, reflected or refracted beam, or projected image, and the unit is switched off after the experiment. Export supply of the Rectangular Lamp House can be arranged to laboratories and schools in Tunisia, Cambodia, Qatar, South Africa, Angola and Argentina.
