A galvanometer is an electromechanical measuring instrument for electric current. ... The taut-band movement is a modern development of the D'Arsonval-Weston movement ...
The meter movement in a moving pointer analog multimeter is practically always a moving-coil galvanometer of the d'Arsonval type, using either jeweled pivots or taut bands to support the moving coil. In a basic analog multimeter the current to deflect the coil and pointer is drawn from the circuit being measured; it is usually an advantage to ...
Common types of variometers include those based on a diaphragm, a vane (horn), a taut band, or are electric based. The vane variometer consists of a rotating vane, centered by a coil spring, dividing a chamber into two parts, one connected to a static port, and the other to an expansion chamber.
The thermo-galvanometer designed by Mr W. Duddell can be used for the measurement of extremely small currents to a high degree of accuracy. It has practically no self-induction or capacity and can therefore be used on a circuit of any frequency (even up to 120,000~ per sec.) and currents as small as twenty micro-amperes can be readily measured ...
They didn’t flinch, O’Connor noted, when Pershing’s Own, the Army’s band, broke out "God Bless America." Col. Clayton Chilcoat, an Army veterinarian, kept watch with first-aid kit in hand ...
Vibration galvanometer Ballistic galvanometer Astatic galvanometer I did put a link for those at the bottom of the page. Maybe the Tangent galvanometer should be a separate article as well? This will be more consistent with the present division. Alternatively, all the types of the galvanometers could be under this heading under "Types".
