Quick answer: A Nessler Cylinder is a tall, flat-bottomed glass cylinder used for colorimetric analysis, allowing visual color comparison between samples such as in water testing for impurities. Cylinder, Nessler is priced at approximately ₹230 (indicative market benchmark, incl. GST, August 2026).
A Nessler cylinder is a tall, narrow glass cylinder with a flat base, designed for colorimetric analysis — comparing the color intensity of a test sample against a standard by looking down through the liquid column. The flat base and uniform bore give consistent light transmission, making color differences easier to judge visually. This technique is used in water testing and general chemical analysis to detect and estimate trace impurities. It’s a standard piece of equipment for colorimetric practicals in college and research chemistry laboratories.
