"Technology - NEW"

3D Printer Cleaning Kit contains useful tools for cleaning up 3D printed objects.

This low friction cart is designed to study motion and collisions on the Vernier Combination 1.2 m Track/Optics Bench. The Plunger Cart has a spring-loaded plunger and super-elastic trigger button that allows for new types of collisions.

This PLA filament is perfect for most 3D printers.

This is the primary generator for wind turbine experiments because it runs smoothly and provides high power output at a relatively low RPM. This is the competition generator used in KidWind Challenge events. This generator has 4-foot leads which are attached with shrink-wrapped, reinforced soldering. Typical output in non-geared wind devices is 0.5–2.5 V at 0.1–0.3 A.

Explore solar energy with this innovative science kit designed to help students investigate energy transformations. A hinged box helps students discover how the angle of photovoltaic panels relative to the sun affects power output. Compare your experimental findings to online sun-angle calculators.

The Microstirrer takes the place of the stirring bar that is typically used with a laboratory magnetic stirrer. The new Vernier Microstirrer easily attaches to the end of a pH Sensor, Conductivity Probe, Dissolved Oxygen Probe, or Ion-Selective Electrode. When the magnetic stirrer plate (required, but not included) is turned on, its magnetic field turns the paddle wheel of the Microstirrer, resulting in enhanced stirring near the electrode tip. The Microstirrer works with any magnetic stirrer.

The Vernier Arduino Interface Shield plugs directly on top of the Arduino and adds two BTA (analog) and two BTD (digital) sockets. This shield was developed to be used with the SparkFun Arduino RedBoard but will work with the Arduino Uno and other Uno equivalents like the Leonardo. It also works with the Intel Galileo.

The sound level sensor allows users to easily measure sound level in decibels (dB) in a variety of school settings. Simply connect and collect, as no background knowledge of sound-level weighting, response times, or the decibel scale is needed to use this sensor.

This adapter allows a Go!Temp or Go!Link* to connect to the USB port of a TI-Nspire handheld or TI-84 graphing calculator. The adapter has a USB standard-A receptacle which connects to the Go!Temp or Go!Link and a USB Mini-A USB plug that connects to the calculator. The adapter can also be used with the USB cable that comes with a Go!Motion.

The Pressure sensor 400 is the optimal sensor for conducting physical and analytical chemistry experiments, such as approximating the adiabatic expansion of a gas, Charles' law experiments, and ideal gas law investigations. It measures absolute pressures from 0 to 400 kPa and operates with excellent accuracy over a wide temperature range. The robust metal fittings allow for a tight, leakproof seal to reaction apparatus.

The Motion Encoder Cart is a dynamics cart compatible with the Vernier Dynamics Cart and Track System. The Motion Encoder Cart replaces a motion detector when used for dynamics cart-on-track activities. An optical sensor beneath the dynamics cart senses the passage of the cart over a marked strip on the track. The position information is sent as an encoded IR signal to a receiver at the track’s end. By avoiding the possibility of stray sound reflections, this optical-only system provides excellent, repeatable, and noise-resistant motion data.

The High Torque Generator is another option for your wind turbine generator. When compared to the standard Wind Turbine Generator, this High Torque Generator will produce lower voltage but higher current for a given rotor RPM. The High Torque Generator is great for load devices with higher current draw, such as the water pump. This generator has the same 2 mm driveshaft as the standard Wind Turbine Generator, so the Wind Turbine Hub is interchangeable with either motor. The generator also has 4-foot leads with shrink-wrap reinforced soldering.

Vernier Chemistry Investigations for Use with AP* Chemistry lab book provides a comprehensive set of resources for the AP Chemistry teacher, including sample data, sample analysis and calculations, and helpful guides to assist in preparing reagents and chemical solutions. In addition, a carefully chosen set of step-by-step instructions for operating probes and software is included to help students make the best use of available lab time, while retaining the spirit of an inquiry environment.

The pH Buffer Capsules (3x10) kit is a convenient set of three vials containing capsules to make pH 4, pH 7, and pH 10 buffer standards for calibrating pH sensors. Each vial contains 10 capsules, each of which produces 100 mL of solution when mixed with DI water. Add three drops of the buffer preservative to 100 mL of your buffer solution to prolong the shelf life. Hydrion Color Key Buffer Preservative is a combination mold inhibitor and universal indicator for color coding the buffer solutions: orange for pH 4, green for pH 7, and blue for pH 10.

The O₂ gas sensor measures oxygen concentration in air, and is temperature compensated for use in different environments. It has a wide measurement range, allowing it to be used to study human and cellular respiration. The O₂ gas sensor also includes a 250 ml bottle that can be used to study the rusting of iron, or as a respiration chamber for monitoring plants and insects.
