This motor-generator set gives students an insight into the physical and technical relationships on which electric motors, generators and transformers are based.
The modular system allows to set up different function models without tools: Various DC motors Series and shunt motor Synchronous motor DC generator and alternator Transformer.
This set allows the performance of 10 student experiments about the following topics:
Magnetic field of a coil
Conversion of electrical energy into kinetic energy
Commutator
Direct current motor
Synchronous motor
Series and shunt-wound motors
Electromagnetic induction
The electrical generator
Engine-generator
Transformer
The motor consists of a two pole armature mounted between the ends of two bar magnets.
The armature has a two section commutator and a pair of slip-rings on its shaft and is so constructed that the wire cannot slip off the iron core.
The upper bearing and brushes for the commutator are mounted on a strong upright.
Separate brushes are provided for the commutator and for slip rings and each are connected to a terminal.
The magnets are held in position by thumb screws.
Comprising 1 welding coil of 5 turns on former with insulated handle and short-circuiting pins,1 annular melting trough with insulated handle to show heating by induction,1 jumping ring which is thrown clear when primary current is started and a floating ring which remains freely suspended when primary current is flowing.
Apparatus is designed primarily for demonstration of the basic principles of transformers.
It consists of a laminated U-core with laminated I-core, both with 32 x 25 mm cross section to form a closed core of size 102 x 127 mm.
Heavy aluminium alloy stand with removable clamping rods, 2 pole pieces, each 65 x 30 x 25 mm with one end cone shaped, to accept support rod and shading ring.
Poles also have a hole drilled through lengthwise to take a light beam. 300 turns 600 turns 1200 turns 3600 turns 12000 turns
For Westminster Electromagnetic Kit giving 1 V full wave rectified DC and 1 V / 2 V AC outputs at 8 A max.
The circuit diagram is printed on the top panel which also carries mains switch, light indicator and output sockets for DC and AC With 1.5 meter mains detachable cable.
