This type of standard electromagnet is used in many experiments. 'U' shaped soft iron yoke. The soft iron is of a special quality, structurally uniform, well machined and nished to meet the rigid standards. The pole pieces are made from dead annealed soft iron blocks of the best quality available. They are well shaped, machined and nished. The air-gap is continuously variable with two way knobbed wheel screw adjusting system. EMU-50T is supplied with tapered pole pieces.
The coils are wound on non-magnetic former with uniform layers of best quality copper wire, (S.W.G. No. 17). The new and modern design of the coils provides good thermal conductivity characteristics and eliminates troublesome hot spots even at high magnetic elds.
