EISCO calorimeter set is used for measuring amounts of heat, and is made of polished copper for thermal conductivity. Copper is both ductile and malleable, conducts heat and electricity well, is resistant to corrosion, and tarnishes easily to form a protective layer of brownish-black copper oxide coating. The set contains an inner vessel, outer vessel, lid, and stirrer for conducting experiments. The lid has a central tubule for placing a thermometer, and a slit for the stirrer (thermometer sold separately). The inner vessel has cork supports to help protect surfaces, and measures 75.0mm (H) with a 50.0mm diameter. The outer vessel measures 100.0mm (H) with a 75.0mm diameter. (H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point.) The set is suitable for high school or college students, or ages 14 to 21.

Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology.

EISCO Scientific manufactures and supplies lab equipment for education and industry. The company, founded in 1968 and headquartered in Rochester, NY, meets International Organization of Standardization (ISO) standard 9001: 2000.
