Product Specification Sheet
Ballistic Galvanometer
Model Number: MT-E501
The Ballistic Galvanometer is a precision laboratory instrument designed for measuring electric charge and current impulses with high sensitivity. Manufactured by Micro Technologies, it is widely used in physics laboratories, engineering colleges, universities, and research institutions for electrical and electromagnetic experiments.
Product Specification
The Ballistic Galvanometer is a highly sensitive electrical measuring instrument developed for accurate measurement of electric charge passing through a circuit over a short duration. Manufactured by Micro Technologies, this precision instrument is extensively used in physics laboratories, educational institutions, research organizations, and scientific laboratories for advanced electrical and electromagnetic experiments.
Unlike conventional galvanometers, the Ballistic Galvanometer is specially designed with a large moment of inertia in its moving system. This construction allows the first deflection of the moving coil to remain directly proportional to the total electric charge passing through the instrument, making it ideal for transient current measurements.
The instrument features a rigid and carefully balanced mechanical structure that provides excellent stability, long-term accuracy, and smooth operation. Its attractive laboratory design is suitable for continuous educational and research use.
The Ballistic Galvanometer can operate as both a Periodic and Aperiodic instrument. An internal arrangement allows the moving coil system to be converted into an aperiodic mode by introducing a suitable resistance in parallel with the moving coil, enabling users to perform a wider range of laboratory experiments.
A zero adjustment and locking mechanism are provided to ensure safe transportation, accurate zero setting, and protection of the delicate moving system. The suspension system utilizes a high-quality phosphor-bronze strip, minimizing zero drift and maintaining long-term measurement stability.
The moving coil carries a specially polished front-silvered concave mirror having a 100 cm focal length, making the instrument suitable for use with a lamp and scale arrangement for highly accurate deflection measurements.
The Ballistic Galvanometer is available in two standard resistance models:
- 100 Ohms with an approximate time period of 10–12 seconds
- 500 Ohms with an approximate time period of 10–12 seconds
Manufactured using precision mechanical and electrical components, the instrument provides reliable performance, excellent sensitivity, and long service life.
The Ballistic Galvanometer is extensively used in engineering colleges, universities, physics laboratories, electrical engineering laboratories, research institutes, scientific laboratories, calibration facilities, and technical training institutes.
Every Ballistic Galvanometer manufactured by Micro Technologies undergoes comprehensive quality inspection and calibration to ensure dependable performance and high measurement accuracy.
