Model No:AEI-VDGD-SH41
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.
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.
