FAQs

Q1. What is a pneumatic trough used for?
It is used in laboratory experiments to collect gases—such as hydrogen, oxygen, or nitrogen—by displacing water from an inverted container over the trough. 

Q2. Why use soda glass for this trough?
Soda glass is transparent, enabling clear observation of gas bubbles and the collection process while being cost-effective and lab-stable.

Q3. What sizes are available?
Commonly, a 20 cm diameter trough is offered, with larger sizes such as 25 cm and 30 cm also available depending on lab needs.

Q4. How does it work?
Fill the trough with water, invert a gas-collection vessel into it, and bubble generated gas into the container, displacing the water and capturing the gas.

Q5. What else can it be used for?
Beyond gas collection, the trough can serve as a drying tray for glassware, a temporary storage basin, or for general liquid handling tasks. 

Q6. Is it reusable?
Yes, when handled carefully and cleaned properly, the trough can be used repeatedly.

Q7. Are there alternatives to glass? What about pricing?
Pneumatic trough variants are also available in materials like polypropylene—for schools and lightweight usage—and stainless steel with added features like overflow outlets. 

Q8. How do I choose the right size?
Consider the volume of gas you plan to collect, the size of the collection vessels, and lab space constraints—larger troughs are suitable for bulk experiments and multiple bottles.
