Optics Set OW1, Wave Optics
Product Code : SCL-PL-12302
Optics Set OW1, Wave Optics (SKU SCL-PL-12302) is a boxed set for 14 optics experiments, from shadow formation and the camera to microscopes, telescopes, vision defects and prism spectra, carried out together with the OG1 set. It suits secondary and senior secondary optics teaching. Science Lab Supplies supplies OW1 from Ambala, India, for schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The set holds four lenses in holders, a concave mirror, screens, diaphragms, a diffraction grating, polarization filters and a hollow prism, in a foam-lined case. They mount on a 1000 mm universal rail offered with the ME2 set.

Applications and Experiments for the OW1 Optics Set
Used with OG1, the set moves students from basic ray optics to optical instruments, the eye and spectra. They build a camera, magnifier, microscope and telescopes on the rail and study vision defects, which suits Class 10 and Class 12 optics and first-year college demonstrations.
- Class 10 science: the human eye, vision defects, prism spectra and rainbows.
- Class 12 physics: real and virtual images from concave mirrors and converging lenses.
- Class 12 physics: optical instruments, including the magnifying glass, microscopes, Galileo’s telescope and a mirror telescope.
Standard Scope of Supply
The case holds all the lenses, mirror, screens, diaphragms, holders, wave optics parts and literature listed in the table above, in a foam insert. Not included: the 1000 mm universal rail, the low-voltage power supply and the square with protractor.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Ask Science Lab Supplies to quote OW1 alone or with OG1 and the rail; the quotation lists packing, delivery time and price for that combination. Other optics lab equipment for schools can be added.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does OW1 work on its own?
Its 14 experiments are carried out with the OG1 set. The universal rail is offered with the ME2 set, and the power supply and square are OG1 accessories.
What instruments can students build with it?
They can set up the camera, a magnifying glass, microscopes, Galileo’s telescope and a mirror telescope, using the four lenses and the concave mirror in holders.
Does the set include wave optics components?
Yes. It includes a double-slit diaphragm, a slit diaphragm, an optical diffraction grating and polarization filters, along with a hollow prism for producing spectra.
Who supplies the Optics Set OW1?
OW1 is supplied from Ambala by Science Lab Supplies, a physics instruments supplier in India, which can quote it alone or together with OG1, the ME2 set or separate optics items.
Related Optics Sets and Accessories
OW1 is designed to run alongside other sets, so these four items belong on the same quotation: OG1 for the optics it builds on, ME2 for the universal rail, and gratings and polarizers for wave optics.
- Optics Set OG1, Geometrical Optics — companion set for 20 ray optics experiments.
- ME2 Mechanical Box, Forces — set for 13 experiments on forces, under which OW1 lists its 1000 mm universal rail.
- Diffraction Gratings with Holder — gratings of 100, 300 and 600 lines/mm.
- Polarizing Filters — linear polarizers in 35 mm square frames.
