Use the Gas Pressure Sensor to monitor pressure changes of a gas in chemistry and biology experiments.
The Gas Pressure Sensor can be used to monitor pressure changes in a gas. The range is wide enough to perform Boyle’s law yet it is sensitive enough to conduct vapor-pressure or pressure-temperature experiments. Biology teachers can use the Gas Pressure Sensor to monitor transpiration or respiration in an enclosed environment.
Pressure Range:0 to 210 kPa (0 to 2.1 atm or 0 to 1600 mm Hg)
Accuracy:±4 kPa
User manual
The Go Direct Gas Pressure Sensor measures the absolute pressure of a gas. It directly connects wirelessly via Bluetooth® or wired via USB to your platform.
Use Go Direct Gas Pressure Sensor to monitor gas pressure in a variety of experiments. It records accurate absolute pressure readings relative to the perfect vacuum reference point inside the sensor, allowing you to go below atmospheric pressure or up to 400 kPa. Easily change the displayed units to any one of seven options (kPa, mmHg, inHg, mbar, psi, atm, torr). Includes a syringe, tubing, and stoppers to ease setup for experiments such as Boyle’s law.
The Go Direct Gas Pressure Sensor can be used in a variety of experiments:
Investigate Boyle’s law and Charles’ law.
Investigate grip strength and muscle fatigue (using Gas Pressure Bulb, not included).
Measure the production of oxygen gas produced when hydrogen peroxide is destroyed by the enzyme catalase.
Monitor plant transpiration.
