Wimshurst Influence Machine
Product Code : SCL-LEP-12423
The Wimshurst Influence Machine (SKU SCL-LEP-12423) is an electrostatic generator that produces up to 160 kV, with a maximum discharge length of 120 mm. Turning the two 310 mm disks of the Wimshurst influence machine separates charge by induction and builds up a high voltage that discharges as a visible spark between the electrodes. The short-circuit current is 30 microamps and the machine measures 360 x 250 x 400 mm. JaincoLab supplies it to schools, colleges and universities.
