Spirometer
Product Code : JA-S-2392
The Spirometer (SKU JA-S-2392) is a float-type instrument used in physiology practicals to measure lung volumes such as tidal volume and vital capacity. The float is balanced by a counterweight on a chain or cord running over a pulley, and a calibrated tube shows the volume breathed in or out. This 6 litre spirometer comes with a corrugated tube and mouthpiece and is manufactured by JaincoLab for teaching laboratories.
Specifications
The spirometer has a 6 litre capacity, a float counterbalanced by chain or cord over a pulley, a tube calibrated to show volume, inlet and outlet tubes, and a corrugated tube with mouthpiece.

Applications of the 6 litre spirometer
In teaching, it shows how much air the lungs move at rest and at maximum effort, and how these volumes differ between students.
- Measuring tidal volume, inspiratory and expiratory reserve volumes and vital capacity in physiology practicals
- Human physiology teaching in medical, nursing, pharmacy and physiotherapy colleges
- B.Sc and school biology demonstrations of breathing and lung volumes
- Comparing lung volumes before and after exercise in student experiments
