Galvanometer

Product Code : EL-MAILE-10857

Quick Answer: A Galvanometer is an electromechanical instrument used for detecting and indicating electric current, working as an actuator that produces a rotary deflection of a “pointer” in response to electric current flowing through a coil in a constant magnetic field. Early galvanometers were not calibrated, but later developments were used as measuring instruments, called ammeters, to measure the current flowing through an electric circuit, and the moving coil type remains the main galvanometer mechanism still in use today. This model is a moving coil galvanometer with 100μA sensitivity and a range of 30 – 0 – 30.

Early galvanometers were not calibrated, but their later developments were used as measuring instruments, called ammeters, to measure the current flowing through an electric circuit. Today the main type of galvanometer mechanism, still in use, is the moving coil. Galvanometers also had widespread use as the visualizing part in other kinds of analog meters, for example in light meters, VU meters, etc., where they were used to measure and display the output of other sensors.
