Electromagnet ‘U’ shape
Product Code : SCL-PLE-11765
The JLab India ‘U’ Shape Electromagnet is a high-efficiency induction component engineered for the empirical study of magnetic fields and industrial lifting principles. Optimized for Secondary and University-level physics, this horseshoe-style configuration is designed to bring both magnetic poles into the same plane, significantly increasing the tractive force compared to bar electromagnets. It facilitates the quantification of magnetic flux density and the verification of the relationship between ampere-turns and magnetic strength within institutional laboratories.

Key Pedagogical Outcomes (Bloom’s Taxonomy Alignment)
- Magnetic Field Interface: Facilitates student visualization of the concentrated magnetic field between two close-proximity poles, supporting Electromagnetism Module 101.
- Tractive Force Quantification: Enables the physical study of magnetism, allowing learners to apply different current levels and observe the direct proportionality to lifting capacity.
- Core Material Analysis: Supports the analysis of magnetic hysteresis; the soft iron core allows students to observe how the magnetic field collapses almost instantly when the current is disconnected.
- Polarity Evaluation: Allows students to evaluate the "Right-Hand Grip Rule" by identifying the North and South poles based on the direction of current flow through the dual coils.
International Logistics & Compliance
JLab India ensures comprehensive OEM readiness for global institutional procurement:
- Packaging: Export-grade seaworthy crating (ISPM-15 compliant) featuring anti-corrosion VCI (Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor) wrapping to protect the polished iron pole faces from oxidation during transit.
- Documentation: Includes Manufacturer’s Authorization Form (MAF), Certificate of Conformance (CoC), and a technical sheet on Ampere-Turns (N⋅I).
- Durability: Tropicalized design featuring high-temperature enamel insulation and moisture-resistant bobbin materials for stable performance in high-humidity laboratory climates.
Direct OEM Sourcing Advantages
Procuring the JLab India ‘U’ Shape Electromagnet directly ensures vertical manufacturing control:
- In-House Core Annealing: Every soft iron core is batch-annealed to ensure maximum permeability and minimum residual magnetism, providing "clean" on/off transitions for experiments.
- Precision Winding: Coils are machine-wound to ensure a consistent number of turns (N), providing uniform results across all units in a classroom set.
- Direct Factory Spares Availability: Guaranteed availability of replacement armatures, hooks, and safety leads to maximize long-term laboratory ROI.
- Manufacturing Control: Direct oversight of the winding direction ensures that the two poles are always correctly established as North and South, preventing the "bucking" fields common in low-quality models.
