Electrostatic Discharger
Model Number: MTEE-23
The Electrostatic Discharger is a practical accessory designed for controlled discharge during electrostatic experiments. It consists of two small plated brass spheres mounted on jointed arms with an insulated handle, providing convenient positioning while helping keep the operator electrically isolated from the conductive components.
Product Specification
The Electrostatic Discharger is a specialized accessory designed for use in experiments involving accumulated electrostatic charge and controlled electrical discharge.
The apparatus incorporates two small plated brass spheres that serve as conductive contact points. Their smooth spherical surfaces provide a convenient arrangement for approaching or contacting charged electrostatic apparatus.
The spheres are mounted on jointed arms, allowing their relative position to be adjusted according to the experimental setup. This articulated arrangement makes the discharger suitable for use with different electrostatic apparatus and terminal configurations.
An insulated handle allows the apparatus to be held and positioned without directly touching the conductive sections.
The discharger can be incorporated into suitable experiments involving Leyden jars, electrostatic generators, charged conductors, and other compatible static-electricity apparatus where controlled removal or transfer of accumulated charge is required.
Its compact construction and adjustable jointed arms make it a useful accessory for electrostatic laboratory setups.
