Philip Harris Van de Graaff Generator (Motor-Driven)
Philip Harris Van de Graaff Generator (Motor-Driven)
A1008326
Product code: A1008326
Product Description
An efficient design for all the usual electrostatic experiments and for where a continuous source of high voltage is required. It has a strong metal base with profiled hand grips, housing a quiet running a.c. motor. The discharge sphere may be plugged into the base or supported separately, linked to the arching post with a standard 4mm connecting lead.
- Charge Collecting Belt: silicone rubber having excellent insulation resistance
- Tracking: belt-tracking easily adjusted
- Charge Collecting Combs: aluminium mesh, design to be clearly visible
- Spheres: aluminium, 230mm diameter
- Connections: 4mm sockets in dome and base
- Voltage Developed: up to 200kV, depending on ambient conditions, with a spark length of 60mm
- Discharger: spherical 75mm diameter on rod for plugging into the base earth socket or support in a retort stand
- Supplied with 1.5m mains lead, illuminated mains on/off switch and fuse
- This device is compliant to EN61010-2010 with certificates available on request
- Dimensions: 225mm x 180mm x 480mm.
Spares available:
- White Plastic Discharge Sphere Holders: B8R08205 - Pack of 10
- Plastic Sphere Holder Connector: B8R08207 - Pack of 10
- Charge Collecting Belt: B8H26769
- O-Ring Seal: B8R08206 - Pack of 10
- Key Stage 3 to A-Level Physics: Static Electricity, Charge Conservation and Transfer, Triboelectric Effect (Charging by Friction), Ionisation
- Static Generators should only be operated by trained school personnel.
- The Generators should not be used by individuals who have a pacemaker or cochlear implant fitted.
- Van de Graaff Generators should not be operated in close proximity to electronic devices such as computers, mobile devices or electronic whiteboards.
- Static electricity is affected by the weather. Operating Van de Graaff Generators in damp weather conditions can reduce their effectiveness.
