Featured Equipment
Middle School Science Extension Lab Station
Includes the four complementary wireless sensors to the Middle School Science Starter Lab Station.
Middle School Science Starter Lab Station
This Starter Lab Station includes the wireless temperature, motion, light, and pH sensors used to perform key lab activities from the Essential Middle School Science Lab Manual.
Wireless Temperature Sensor
The Wireless Temperature Sensor is a general-purpose sensor found in many science labs. With a rugged, waterproof design and a long-lasting battery, students can spend more time collecting data and less time dealing with equipment.
Support
Many lab activities can be conducted with our Wireless, PASPORT, or even ScienceWorkshop sensors and equipment. For assistance with substituting compatible instruments, contact PASCO Technical Support. We're here to help.
