Solar-Powered Fan Educational Model

Product Code : SCL-SK-12155

Solar-Powered Fan Educational Model (SKU SCL-SK-12155) is a demonstration model in which a solar panel drives a small electric fan. It gives students an instant, visible answer to the question of whether sunlight can do work: when light falls on the panel, the fan turns. Schools, STEM labs and science exhibitions use it. Science Lab Supplies manufactures the model in Saha, Ambala, India, at Plot 448 in the HSIIDC Industrial Area, and sells it without intermediaries to schools, colleges, contractors and distributors.

Specifications

The model links a photovoltaic panel to a fan motor to show light energy becoming electrical and then mechanical energy. Panel rating, fan size, motor type, switch and battery details are not given in the listing, so the quotation states the build of the unit supplied.

Applications and Experiments for the Solar-Powered Fan Model

Teachers use the fan model to show a complete energy chain in seconds and to let students test what changes fan speed. Shading part of the panel, tilting it or moving it closer to a lamp gives quick, observable results that suit short investigations.

• Primary and middle-school science: sunlight as a source of energy.
• Secondary physics: energy transformation and DC circuits.
• Environmental education: solar power for cooling and ventilation.
• STEM projects and science fairs: fair tests on light intensity and panel angle.

Standard Scope of Supply

The Solar-Powered Fan Educational Model is supplied as a single unit as described above. Whether a stand, switch or battery backup is part of the supply is not fixed by the listing, so every included part and any optional extra is written on the quotation.

Packing, MOQ and Lead Time

Quotations are available for a single fan model or for one per student group. Each sets out packing, delivery time and price for your chosen quantity, and other science kits for students in India, such as our solar models, can be quoted together.

Registered as an exporter under an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Bangladesh, Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa, Qatar and Sri Lanka. For a quote, message us via the contact page or submit the enquiry cart; tender details are on the lab tender page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the fan slow down in shade?
A solar panel's output falls as less light reaches it, so the motor receives less power and turns more slowly. This makes the model a simple way to show that light intensity controls electrical output.

Can it be used indoors?
Yes, with a bright lamp close to the panel, although the fan usually turns faster in direct sunlight. Avoid very hot lamps placed too near the panel.

Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
It is the manufacturer: the fan model is made at Science Lab Supplies' own plant in Saha, Ambala, India, and quotations are sent out by that plant.

Is the model suitable for young students?
It is a low-voltage solar model, suitable for supervised classroom use. Remind students to keep fingers away from the turning blades.
