If something is spinning, oscillating or vibrating very fast, how can you see it?
A stroboscope gives the illusion of slowing down, freezing, or even reversing the action
This robust, light‐weight stroboscope is ideal for classroom work with vibrations and waves
It features a bright xenon tube that is effective even in low ambient light, meaning complete blackout is not necessary
Control of flash frequency is by way of intuitive controls, in the range 0.2‐300Hz
Coarse adjustment can be done by the multiplier buttons and fine adjustment can be done either by up and down buttons or by analogue‐style dial
An external signal can be used instead, such as a signal generator or manual trigger
The unit resets to 1Hz for safety when switched on
A large LED display shows the frequency setting when using the internal modulator, and will display the frequency of the incoming signal if the external trigger is used
The unit features a carrying handle and is powered via a mains lead
It is an excellent aid when doing experiments with the Vibration Generator and Accessories, or ripple tanks
