Description
FRE 464000 – Galvanometer Insert
-
The insert is designed to build a simple galvanometer for demonstrating induction and small currents.
-
It consists of a permanent magnet with a pointer mounted on a thin blade-bearing, allowing the pointer to swing freely.
-
It includes a 0-centre scale, meaning the pointer rests at zero when there’s no current, and deflects in both directions with induced currents.
-
Compatible with Frederiksen’s induction coils (specifically, coils with article numbers 462510 – 462540).
Key Features
-
Permanent Magnet Assembly: Provides a stable magnetic field for the pointer to interact with.
-
Pointer Mechanism: Lightweight pointer mounted on a blade bearing ensures sensitive deflection with small currents.
-
Centre-Zero Scale: Allows measurement of positive or negative deflections; ideal for induction experiments.
-
Modular / Replaceable: Because this is just the insert, it can be mounted into a larger setup or used as a replacement part.
-
Lab-Friendly Design: Suitable for educational physics labs where demonstration of electromagnetic induction is needed.
