Information>
Van De Graff Generator Designed for electrostatic experiments and where continuous source of high voltage is required. Fitted on base with smooth running A.C. Motor, operates on 220 volts A.C. 50 Hz. Charge collecting Silicon rubber having excellent. Belt : insulation resistance. Tracking : Belt-tracking easily adjusted. Charge collecting combs : Aluminium mesh, clearly visible.
Product Description:-
Spheres : Aluminium 150 mm. dia.
Connections : 4 mm. sockets in dome and base.
Voltage developed : Upto 200 kV, depending on ambient conditions, with a spark length of 60 mm.
Discharger : Spherical 100 mm. dia., with insulated Handle and 4 mm. sockets.
The Van de Graaff generator operates on the principle of electrostatic induction. A motor-driven belt made of insulating material moves over rollers, transferring electric charge from a lower brush (connected to a high-voltage power supply) to an upper brush. The upper brush transfers the charge to the metal dome, creating a high potential difference.
Features:-
- High Voltage Generation: Produces a strong electrostatic potential of several thousand volts, enough to perform classic experiments like hair-raising demonstrations, sparking, and charge transfer.
- Motor-Driven Mechanism: Equipped with a reliable electric motor that continuously drives the rubber belt, ensuring smooth and consistent charge accumulation on the dome.
- Polished Dome: Features a large, smooth metallic dome that acts as the charge collector, allowing safe and visible demonstrations.
- Sturdy Construction: Designed with a durable base and insulated column to minimize charge leakage and maximize performance.
- Educational Utility: Ideal for demonstrating electrostatic principles such as corona discharge, electric wind, lightning simulation, and charge distribution.
