An electromagnet is a magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. The magnetic field disappears when the current is switched off.
The electromagnet consists of a thick soft iron core wound with 600 turns of insulated copper wire.
It operates on a 12 V DC supply.
The robust construction provides a strong magnetic field and higher lifting capacity.
It is suitable for demonstrating how increased wire windings concentrate the magnetic field around the core.
The apparatus also helps students understand that the strength of the magnetic field is related to the amount of current flowing through the winding.
Manufactured by Atico Export with a focus on the practical needs of modern laboratory environments.
