Ring Launcher

To demonstrate the Lenz’s law and effects of electromagnetically induced currents. A ring launcher consist of the base unit and built-in vertical solenoid of thick copper wire with a removeable iron core. Launch rings are provided with launcher includes: aluminum ring without split, aluminium ring with split and a plastic ring. These rings fit over the solenoid and are supported at some height above the base by an adjustable collar.

Unique characteristics:

• Circuit activation by insertion of solenoid.
• Buzzer for the confirmation of activation.
• IR remote for safe & controlled launch.
• Designed for use in school/college laboratories.
• Rigid housing with the indication of power, activation status & core status.
• Press to launch switch.
