Description
Teltron Discharge Tubes
The Teltron range of demonstration discharge tubes
has been designed to show the properties of the free
electron.
The D range is the original Teltron range with connections
fixed on the tubes. The S range is a newer range with
connections on the stand rather than the tubes.
Please note the ranges are not interchangeable.
Other equipment for use with the Teltron tubes:
605-006 EHT Power Supply
261-031 Digital Meter with two shunts included
231-080 Shrouded Test Lead Red
231-081 Shrouded Test Lead Black
Teltron Diode D
Pair of Helmholtz coils for generating a uniform magnetic
field perpendicular to the axis of the Teltron D series
tubes. Teltron Tube Holder D allows the coils to be
configured in the Helmholtz geometry or to produce
magnetic fields aligned vertically, or coaxial, with respect
to the tube axis. The maximum field strength generated
by the coils (~ 10 mT) is approximately 300 times weaker
than that produced by an MRI machine (~ 3T), which are
known to be safe for use by people with medical
implants such as pacemakers.
