Lateral Search Coil

Lateral Search Coil

B8R07038

Product code: B8R07038

The Lateral Search Coil consists of 5000 turns of very fine copper wire on a bobbin fixed at one end of fibreglass board (electrically insulated and non magnetic), and on the other end two 4 mm socket terminals are fitted. It can be used to determine field strengths or flux density inside the air gap of magnets or solenoids. An a.c. or d.c. signal can be applied to the search coils to study the effect of interacting magnetic fields. Coil mounted with its axis at 90 degrees to the axis of the PCB board.

Signal Generator also required for use (B8G85779 or similar).

  • An Axial Search Coil is also available to purchase separately (B8R07037).
  • Key Stage 4 Physics - Magnetism and Electromagnetism: Magnetic effects of currents, how solenoids enhance the effect.  Exploring the magnetic fields of permanent and induced magnets, and the Earth’s magnetic field.
