Communicating Vessels Apparatus
Product Code : SCL-PLE-10435
The Communicating Vessels Apparatus from Lab Glassware Manufacturer is a physics laboratory device used for demonstrating that liquid reaches the same level in connected vessels regardless of their shape or cross-section.
Quick answer: When several differently shaped vessels are connected at the base, liquid settles at the same height in each one, illustrating that hydrostatic pressure depends only on depth, not vessel shape.

A Visual Proof of Hydrostatic Equilibrium
Because the vessels differ in shape yet settle at the same liquid height, students can see directly that pressure at a given depth is independent of the container’s cross-section. It complements the Outlet Container for a broader set of hydrostatic pressure demonstrations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the communicating vessels apparatus demonstrate?
A: It demonstrates that liquid reaches the same level in connected vessels regardless of their individual shape or cross-section.
