The IEC mechanical release type ‘Free Fall Apparatus’ permits a ball of any type of metal to be released from an adjustable height up to 1000mm. As the ball falls from the upper platform, the starting of the timer is clean, accurate and reliable. To permit the tall instrument to be positioned up on a demonstration table and permit a person to reach the release mechanism, the release is by a cord hanging down the side of the instrument to a point close to the base. A sprung bronze wire is pushed into a small hole in the ball and the ball is held upwards against the underside of the upper platform by the weight on the release cord. As the release cord is gently pulled downwards, the sprung bronze wire is pulled from the ball and it falls cleanly.

Included: All cables & plugs, LCD timer (LB4057-001) and 3 balls of different sizes.
