Laboratory Spot Reflecting Galvanometer

Product Code : SCL-EAE-12253

The Spot Reflecting Galvanometer is a sensitive physics laboratory instrument used for detecting and observing small electric currents through a reflected light-spot indication system. It is suitable for schools, colleges, physics labs, electronics classrooms, technical institutes, STEM labs, distributors, and educational procurement buyers.

Product Description

The Laboratory Spot Reflecting Galvanometer from Science Lab Supplies is intended for experiments that require sensitive current detection and visible deflection indication. A related Science Lab Supplies Galvanometer EDSPOT listing describes an integral taut suspension movement, lamp unit, scale, light-spot indication, damping provision, 4 mm colour-coded socket terminals, zero adjustment, and sensitivity adjustment.

This instrument is useful for demonstrating galvanometer sensitivity, null detection, bridge circuits, current direction, electromagnetic measurement principles, and low-current circuit behaviour. Exact product equivalence with the EDSPOT model, sensitivity values, coil resistance, scale format, cabinet material, and certifications must be confirmed before final publication.

Key Features

• Light-spot indication: supports clear observation of small current deflections where the supplied model uses a lamp-and-scale system.
• Sensitive current detection: suitable for detecting low-current changes in supervised physics experiments.
• Galvanometer teaching aid: helps students understand moving-coil response, current direction, and deflection principles.
• Socket terminal connection: related EDSPOT listing specifies 4 mm colour-coded socket terminals for signal input.
• Adjustment controls: related EDSPOT listing includes lock/unlock, zero adjustment, and sensitivity adjustment at the front.
• Capacity not applicable: this is a current-detection instrument, not a liquid-volume product.
• Verification-led specification: sensitivity, resistance, accuracy, scale, and certification claims must be checked against the final model.

How to Use the Laboratory Spot Reflecting Galvanometer

1. Confirm the input rating, terminal type, sensitivity setting, and wiring instructions before use.
2. Place the instrument on a stable, vibration-free laboratory bench.
3. Keep the circuit switched off while connecting leads to the galvanometer terminals.
4. Set zero adjustment according to the supplied operating instructions.
5. Select sensitivity or attenuation only as permitted for the final model.
6. Power the circuit and observe the light spot or scale indication.
7. Record deflection or null-point readings as required by the experiment.
8. Switch off the circuit before changing connections or moving the instrument.

Safety note: Use only under trained supervision. Do not exceed the verified input rating, do not connect to unsuitable mains or high-current circuits, do not use damaged leads, and avoid mechanical shock to the suspension system.

Care & Maintenance

• Store the galvanometer in a dry, dust-free cabinet after use.
• Protect the suspension, lamp, scale, terminals, and screen from vibration and impact.
• Clean the outer body gently with a soft, dry cloth.
• Use qualified service support for lamp faults, suspension damage, terminal issues, or calibration concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Spot Reflecting Galvanometer used for?

A Spot Reflecting Galvanometer is used to detect small electric currents and show deflection through a reflected light spot or scale indication in physics experiments.

Is this the same as Galvanometer EDSPOT?

The related Science Lab Supplies EDSPOT listing matches the spot-indication concept, but exact product equivalence should be confirmed before using the same SKU or specifications.

What scale does the instrument use?

The related EDSPOT listing specifies a front scale graduated 0–18 cm left-zero and 9–0–9 cm centre-zero. Confirm this scale for the exact supplied model.

Can it be used in school physics labs?

Yes. It is suitable for supervised school and college physics labs when the experiment remains within the verified input and sensitivity limits.

Does it include a lamp unit?

The related EDSPOT listing includes a lamp unit. Confirm whether the lamp unit, spare lamp, and scale assembly are included with this exact product.

Can it measure high current directly?

No. A spot reflecting galvanometer is intended for sensitive current detection, not direct high-current measurement. Use only within the verified rating.
