BALLISTIC GALVANOMETER By Labcare Export About

A Ballistic Galvanometer is a highly sensitive device used for measuring the charge or current produced during a brief electric pulse, often in research and laboratory settings. It operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction, where the moving coil is deflected by the current passed through it, which is proportional to the magnitude of the pulse. The deflection is recorded, providing information about the electric charge or impulse duration. It is particularly used in experiments involving the charging and discharging of capacitors, as well as other transient current studies.

Ballistic Galvanometers (100 or 500 Ohm) typically have a resistance value, which influences their sensitivity and the range of measurements. These devices are often used in applications that require high accuracy over short time intervals.

Exceptional Sensitivity and Precision

This ballistic galvanometer is engineered for high sensitivity, with deflection directly proportional to the charge (micro-coulombs scale). The anti-parallax mirror scale, fine graduations, and knife-edge pointer enable accurate readings. The mirror and lamp arrangement further enhances measurement precision by minimizing reading errors, making it perfect for advanced physics experiments and educational demonstrations.


Robust and User-Friendly Construction

Encased in a durable enamel-coated cast iron body with a non-magnetic frame and glass front, this galvanometer provides long-lasting serviceability. Brass terminals with knurled nuts ensure secure connections, while the zero adjuster and external power source input allow for manual operation and fine-tuning. All relevant accessories and a detailed operation manual are included for straightforward setup and use.
