Van De Graff with Accessories
Product Code : JL-LE-10648
The Van De Graff with Accessories (SKU JL-LE-10648, Cat. No. JSS-102/084) is a Van de Graaff generator for electrostatic experiments that need a continuous source of high voltage. A smooth-running DC motor on the base, working from 220 V AC 50 Hz, drives a silicone rubber belt that carries charge to a 150 mm aluminium sphere, developing up to 200 kV with a 60 mm spark, depending on ambient conditions and humidity. It comes with full accessories.
