Compact - Light barrier

Function and Applications

Use the compact infrared fork-type light barrier with flexibly mountable rod to record motion sequences completely without contact, providing students with an intuitive introduction to dynamic measurements and the fundamental concepts of motion science.

Benefits

• Flexible alignment thanks to four rod positions
• An incremental wheel with a string groove which can be attached to the fork of the light barrier allows to measure paths by counting the ribs of the incremental wheel.
• Areas of application: track experiments, freefall, pendulum experiments, leaf spring oscillations, drop counters, volumetric measurements concerning the gas laws.

Technical Specification

• Holder for incremental wheel for determining distances
• Internal dimensions (mm): 40 × 40
• Supply voltage: 5 V
• Includes incremental wheel
