This high quality Ripple Tank from Optika combines ease of use with high visual resolution and responsiveness. The stroboscopic lamp is fitted with an extra-bright 3W LED which is synchronised with the surface-wave generator. The control unit is equipped with a digital display and allows to set or to stop the synchronism of the vibrator with the lamp the modulation of wave amplitude and its frequency. The vibrator is electro-dynamic type.

When used as a stroboscope the extra-bright 3W LED light can be synchronised with the wave generator allowing easy demonstration of standing waves etc.

The apparatus comprises a 0-50Hz wave generator electro-dynamic vibrator unit 3W LED source with both strobe and steady modes high quality metal frame with tank mirror screen power supply comprehensive notes and accessories.

The apparatus includes a variety of dippers and accessories allowing exploration of a wide range of wave phenomena including wave propagation reflection refraction interference patterns and standing waves.

The tank is provided with two adjustable feet and with an easy to-use drain pipe ending with a tap.
