New Arrivals
UV-Vis Fiber Optic Kit
UV-Vis Fiber Optic KitEnhance the capabilities of your PASCO UV-Vis Spectrometer (SE-3607) for the analysis of emission sources, external samples, and the classification of lasers with the UV-Vis Fiber Optic Kit. This complete kit includes a quartz core cable (50-cm quartz core, 0.2-mm diameter) and a front surface mirror, reflective cuvette. Other applications include: analysis of external absorption spectra, measurement of electronic transition energies, calculation of the Rydbergh constant, and determination of light source energies.
Greenhouse Sensor
Greenhouse SensorThe Greenhouse Sensor measures temperature, light intensity, soil moisture, and atmospheric humidity, making it the perfect tool for monitoring conditions in agricultural and environmental science. Designed for use with PASCO’s Greenhouse Sense and Control Kit.
Demonstration Electric Motor
Demonstration Electric MotorThe Demonstration Electric Motor is a ready built fully functional unit showing all the essential features of a simple motor as taught in the KS4 syllabus. A single rectangular coil rotates in a linear magnetic field with a simple commutator and brush arrangement. Field directions can be reversed by reversing the ferrite slab magnets and current direction can be reversed by reversing the leads. Requires DC voltage in the range 1.5 V – 6 V.
Mounted Component Resistor 10ohms
Mounted Component Resistor 10ohmsA mounted resistor 1R with a tolerance of 5%. A full range of resistors for general circuit work and Ohm’s Law studies etc. Convenient metric values make for easier student calculations. Power ratings vary from 2W for the lower values to 0.25W for the higher ones.
Digital Signal Generator
Digital Signal GeneratorDecade free frequency changing by press button UP and DOWN controls with time sensitive rate of change. Sweep from 0.1 Hz to 100kHz in seconds without the need to change ranges.
Thermal System Steel
Thermal System SteelThis new approach to measuring Specific Heat Capacity provides a self-contained apparatus to replace the traditional metal blocks and immersion heaters. A 300 g steel block (brass and aluminium also available) is mounted on an insulating base with a heating element attached to the underside. The block has a 4mm hole for data-logging probes, thermometer hole and felt insulating jacket. The heater is 30 W at 12 V and requires a standard laboratory power supply to provide up to 3 A. Typical temperature rises are 40 C in 5 minutes providing a convenient investigation for students using thermometers and stopwatches as well as computer based data systems. Full instructions and theory included.
Thermal System Brass
Thermal System BrassThis new approach to measuring Specific Heat Capacity provides a self-contained apparatus to replace the traditional metal blocks and immersion heaters. A 300 g brass block (aluminium and steel also available) is mounted on an insulating base with a heating element attached to the underside.

PASCO Wins Best of STEM for 2023 Educators Pick Awards
We’re excited to share that three PASCO products have been chosen as Best of STEM Winners!
PS-2600A Spectrometer – Pairing Process Update
The way that the updated PS-2600A Spectrometer pairs to the Spectrometry software is different to how the original PS-2600 pairs to the software. The PS-2600A will pair directly with the software without having to first pair the device to the computing device operating system.
Sanako Connect – New Version Released
Sanako have released a new version for their web-based language teaching platform Sanako Connect!
This new version includes an exam mode, the ability to divide an exercise into multiple pages, and the ability to import .mff files (.mff is the file format for content/exercises in previous Sanako products like Sanako Study).
