Electrostatic Charge Sensor

Each sensor requires a sensor cable to connect to LabMate+ or Tablet+. Sensor cable sold separately.

This is a dual range, all purpose Electrostatic Charge Sensor that can be used in many electrostatic experiments. Among this sensor’s advantages are that it is not affected by humidity and can perform quantitative measurements and indication of charge polarity. The Electrostatic Charge Sensor is housed inside Fourier’s plastic sensor case and is equipped with a zero button and range switch. In most cases, it will replace the traditional electroscope.
