SEK Solar Energy (230 V, 50/60 Hz)

Description
Required
Experiment

Large equipment set for carrying out 16 fundamental experiments on solar energy. The basic parameters and properties of solar modules and the aspects which affect their energy efficiency can all be demonstrated by experiment. Contained in a rugged metal case including foam inlay with recesses in the shape of the apparatus. The system allows you to assemble experiments easily and in a compact set-up on or in the lid of the kit’s carry case. Includes CD with experiment instructions.
