Device for Demonstrating the Anomaly of Water

The Device for Demonstrating the Anomaly of Water is a kit of apparatus for identifying the thermal anomaly of water, measuring its thermal expansion and determining its maximum density.

The kit is comprised of a Duran glass vessel with an inlet tube and two GL screw connections able to mount the riser tube, millimetre scale, temperature sensor or thermometer. The device also includes a supplied stirring rod.
