Clinostat Electric
Product Code : JC-PE-7535
The Clinostat Electric (SKU JC-PE-7535) is an electric clinostat for studies of geotropism and phototropism in seedlings, cut shoots and small potted plants. Seedlings are pinned to a cork-faced disc, which also takes a specimen tube, and an electric motor turns the disc at 5 revolutions per hour so that gravity acts evenly from all sides. The angle is set with a thumb screw under a clear plastic cover. This electric clinostat is made by JaincoLab for 220 V, 50 Hz supply.
Specifications
The clinostat stands 300 mm high, runs on 220 V, 50 Hz with a 3-core cable and turns at 5 revolutions per hour; the disc is listed both as 70 mm and as 100 mm in diameter, so its size is confirmed on the quotation.

Applications of the electric clinostat
The clinostat is used as the control in tropism experiments: slow rotation cancels the one-sided effect of gravity or light, so students can compare growth with a stationary seedling.
