Student Kit - Optics Set

The Student Kit - Optics Set contains the apparatus needed to carry out a range of basic optics experiments for lower secondary school. Detailed instructions and manuals for teachers and students are included on CD-ROM. The apparatus is stored in a rugged Gratnells tray which includes foam inserts for each piece of apparatus to ensure the apparatus is stored safely and securely.

Available in Multiple Voltages

This kit is available in two different voltages to match your needs. It's available in 230V, 50/60Hz and 115V, 50/60Hz.

Takes up Less Space

The experiments the Student Kit - Optics Set enable you to carry out are designed to take up a minimal amount of desk space - ideal for a range of environments and desk designs.
