Sliding resistor 10 Ohm 5.6 A Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-EI-10660

The Sliding Resistor 10 Ohm 5.6 A is a physics laboratory variable resistor used for controlling current and changing resistance in low-voltage electrical circuit experiments. It is suitable for schools, colleges, STEM labs, electronics trainer boards, physics practical rooms, distributors, and institutional procurement buyers.

Product Description

The Sliding resistor 10 Ohm 5.6 A from Lab Glassware Manufacturer is intended for classroom demonstrations where students need to vary resistance smoothly and observe its effect on current, voltage, lamp brightness, motor speed, or meter readings. The supplied product name confirms a resistance value of 10 Ω and a current rating of 5.6 A.

A sliding resistor, also called a rheostat, is commonly used in series with a circuit load. The movable slider changes the effective resistance in the circuit, helping students understand Ohm’s law, current control, resistance heating, and electrical measurement. Exact wire material, power rating, tolerance, terminal format, base construction, and dimensions should be confirmed before final catalogue publication.

Key Features

• 10 Ω resistance value: suitable for current-control experiments in educational circuits.
• 5.6 A current rating: supports higher-current classroom demonstrations where the circuit is correctly rated.
• Sliding contact control: allows resistance tostrong>Sliding contact control: allows resistance to be varied during live observation under supervision.
• Physics and electronics use: useful for Ohm’s law, rheostat action, and load-control experiments.
• Bench-top apparatus: suitable for school and college laboratory practicals where final construction is verified.
• Capacity not applicable: this is an electrical resistance apparatus, not a liquid-volume product.
• Specification-dependent safety: wattage, insulation, terminals, and heat tolerance must be confirmed before use.

How to Use the Sliding Resistor 10 Ohm 5.6 A

1. Confirm the circuit voltage, current, and power rating before connecting the resistor.
2. Place the sliding resistor on a dry, stable, heat-resistant laboratory bench.
3. Inspect the resistance coil, slider, terminals, insulation, and base for damage.
4. Connect the sliding resistor in series with the circuit load.
5. Start with a safe supply setting and move the slider gradually.
6. Observe the change in current, voltage, lamp brightness, or motor speed.
7. Do not exceed 5.6 A or the confirmed power rating.
8. Switch off the supply before changing connections or handling the resistor.

Safety note: Sliding resistors can become hot during operation. Do not touch the resistance wire after use, do not overload the resistor, and do not connect it directly across a high-current supply without a suitable load and confirmed rating.

Care & Maintenance

• Store the resistor dry and protected from dust, impact, and corrosion.
• Keep the slider contact clean and moving smoothly.
• Check terminals and screws before classroom use.
• Remove from use if insulation cracks, the coil deforms, the slider jams, or overheating marks appear.
