Microwave Accessories Set of Plates (Product Code: SLE/PHY/250) is a set of five free-standing plates used to demonstrate the reflection, interference, partial transmission and polarisation of microwaves in school and college physics laboratories. It combines three aluminium plates, one perspex plate and a polarization grille, each on supporting feet so it stands upright in the beam. The set is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

A large aluminium plate acts as a mirror for microwaves, so students can check that the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence, or face it towards the transmitter and move the receiver between them to detect standing waves. Standing the two large aluminium plates either side of the narrow 60 mm plate creates a double slit, and moving the receiver across the far side reveals the interference pattern — a microwave version of the Young double slit experiment.
The perspex plate reflects part of the beam and transmits the rest, which is useful when discussing partial reflection. The polarization grille shows that the transmitter's output is polarised: the signal passes in one orientation and falls sharply when the grille is turned through a right angle. Stand each piece firmly on its feet, keep the aluminium faces clean and flat, and store the set so the grille cannot be bent.
The Microwave Accessories Set of Plates comes from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab and is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the set. It is produced at the company's own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges, laboratory dealers and importers in India and international markets. If a plate or the grille needs replacing, or you want to extend the kit, ask the manufacturer directly; see the ScienceLab profile for company details.

What is included in the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates?
The Microwave Accessories Set of Plates includes one aluminium plate of about 60 x 280 mm, two aluminium plates of about 200 x 280 mm, one perspex plate of about 200 x 280 mm and a polarization grille of about 200 x 200 mm, all on supporting feet.
How is a double slit made with the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates?
A double slit is made with the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates by standing the two large aluminium plates in line with the narrow 60 mm plate between them, leaving two gaps. Moving the receiver across the far side then shows the microwave interference pattern.
What does the polarization grille in the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates show?
The polarization grille in the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates shows that microwaves are polarised: the received signal changes strongly as the 200 x 200 mm grille is rotated in the beam, being greatest in one orientation and smallest at right angles to it.
Do the pieces of the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates stand on their own?
Yes. Every piece of the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates, including the polarization grille, is mounted on supporting feet, so each stands upright on the bench and can be positioned quickly in the microwave beam without extra clamps.
Who manufactures the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates?
The Microwave Accessories Set of Plates is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer with its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations and repeat orders are handled directly by the manufacturer.
What should a quotation request for the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates include?
A quotation request for the Microwave Accessories Set of Plates should give the number of sets, any transmitter, receiver or other microwave accessories you want included, and the delivery location, so the manufacturer can reply with a single complete price.
