Product Details
Van de Graaff generator
Generates very high DC voltages, but is safe to use due to low output current.
The generator features a conducting sphere with a diameter of 220 mm.
The sphere is fitted with a Ø 4 mm socket for connecting other equipment via a lead.
Description
The top of the sphere can be dismantled to reveal the design of the device.
Static electricity is produced by a rubber belt (item no. 370001) and 2 plastic rollers.
The bottom roller is powered by a drive belt (item no. 370002) from a stepless variable-speed 230 V motor or a hand crank.
There is an earthing socket on the motor housing for a ground connection or for connecting to a separate conducting sphere.
