Shop - Frederiksen Scientific 381175 – Galvanometer, Analogue

Description

Overview

• This is an analogue galvanometer / micro-ammeter, designed for measuring very small DC currents.

• It has a centre-zero scale, meaning it can measure currents in both directions (positive and negative).

• The dial is 45° inclined, allowing for better readability.

• It is fitted with safety 4 mm sockets, making it safer for use in student / lab environments.

• Current range: –500 µA to +500 µA.

Key Features

• High Sensitivity: Because it measures microamperes, it’s ideal for small current or induction experiments.

• Clear Readout: Large, tilted display helps improve visibility.

• Durable / Safe Design: Built for educational use; includes safety sockets to prevent misuse.

• Compact & Lightweight: Budget model, so it’s relatively simple and easy to integrate into basic physics setups.

• Wide Compatibility: Useful for teaching electromagnetic induction, or demonstrating current in coils.
