Demonstraton Electric Bell

Description

For use on double 'C' core, wound with 1,100 turns of 22 swg copper wire with a resistance of about 6 ohms and inductance of about 15 henries, size 100 x 60 x 55 mm approx.

Description

The dynamo model is mounted on a base with a driving wheel. Output is through 4 mm sockets and a low voltage bulb is also provided as a simple output indicator.

Description

A simple kit for students to gain insight into field poles, armatures and switches, one mounting base, two coils of insulated wire , field pole, mounting bracket, two armature halves, one piece of insulating tubing, motor shaft, two commutator insulators, two bronze wire brushes, two shaft supports, four paper fasteners, a AA battery holder and 6 each of screws and nuts. Requires one AA battery, not supplied, with assembly instructions.

Description

Students can explore how a simple electric motor works by doing a series of investigations. This St. Louis motor can be adjusted so students can study the effect of voltage and position of the brushes on the commutator. The motor consists of a two pole DC armature. The brush holder, with two heavy binding post terminals, can be rotated for experiments. The permanent bar magnets, supported by clamps, can be adjusted to the desired location. This apparatus requires 4 D cell batteries with holder (not included) or a power supply and two connecting leads (not included).
