Demonstration Meter Horizontal
Product Code : LSK-LM-11134
Demonstration Meter Horizontal (SKU LSK-LM-11134) is a horizontal-type demonstration meter housed in a transparent case on a bakelite base, with a scale about 85 mm long. It is meant for showing meter readings during classroom and laboratory demonstrations in schools and colleges. Science Lab Supplies dispatches it from Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors who need demonstration meters.
Specifications
Each listed specification appears as a row in the table below. In brief, the meter lies flat in a transparent case fixed to a bakelite base, reads to ±2.5% of full-scale deflection on a scale of about 85 mm, and measures roughly 140 x 140 x 45 mm overall, so it sits low on the bench.

Applications and Experiments for the Horizontal Demonstration Meter
The horizontal meter is placed in a demonstration circuit so the teacher can show a reading while students watch the pointer through the clear case. It supports basic electricity lessons, circuit practicals and the study of how analogue meters are built, and is a practical item on any physics lab equipment list for Class 11 and 12.
- Class 8–10 science: showing that current flows when a circuit on a Junior Circuit Board is closed and stops when the switch is opened.
- Class 10 and 12 physics: Ohm's law demonstrations in which the current is changed with a Rheostat, Constantine (Eureka) Wire.
- Class 12 physics: discussing the moving coil galvanometer and the role of shunt and series resistances, with a Laboratory Battery Eliminator as the steady supply.
- Diploma and ITI electrician classes: practising analogue meter reading and understanding full-scale accuracy.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Demonstration Meter Horizontal is supplied as a single meter in its transparent case on the bakelite base, as described above. Connecting leads, a power supply, rheostats and circuit boards are separate items, and any of them can be added to the same quotation if the meter is wanted as part of a ready demonstration set.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
A quotation can be prepared for one meter or for a full set of demonstration meters across several classrooms. Science Lab Supplies lists the packing, delivery time and price for the quantity requested, and circuit boards, rheostats or power supplies can be included on the same quotation.
Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code and can ship to buyers in Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Reach the team through the contact page, build a list in the enquiry cart, or use the lab tender page for tender enquiries.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose the horizontal type for demonstrations?
The meter lies flat in a transparent case on a bakelite base and stands only about 45 mm high, so it can sit in a circuit on the bench while students look down onto the 85 mm scale.
How accurate is the Demonstration Meter Horizontal?
Its accuracy is ±2.5% of full-scale deflection. That is suited to classroom demonstrations and introductory practicals, where clear and repeatable readings matter more than laboratory-grade precision.
How is it different from the vertical demonstration meter?
The vertical model stands upright on a wooden stand with an 80 mm scale and is designed to show all the parts of a moving coil meter. This horizontal model sits flat in a transparent case with an 85 mm scale.
Who supplies the Demonstration Meter Horizontal?
It comes from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India. Schools and contractors can request it on its own or with other meters and circuit apparatus, and each item is priced separately on the quotation.
