The PS-3211A wireless voltage sensor is well suited to investigating core concepts in electricity, voltage, and basic circuits. It measures voltages up to ±30V and has built-in overload protection, with high-speed sampling when connected by USB. Paired with a wireless current sensor, the two devices let students explore Ohm's law, series and parallel circuits, and more. In chemistry, the sensor helps students study oxidation-reduction reactions, electrolytic-cell potentials, and the effects of solution concentration on the generated potentials. Measuring the potential difference between two half-reactions separated by a salt bridge introduces students to the driving forces behind modern batteries.
