This apparatus permits the simple or detailed study of the benefits of using house insulation to reduce energy consumption. A thermostatically controlled hot plate is provided with provision for monitoring the input power to the electric heaters. Temperatures in the range 25 to 600C can be used. 6 felt pads are supplied so that the effect of increasing insulation thickness can be investigated together with an air cell double glazing panel. Observations involve timing the on/off periods for the heater. Provision is made for data-logger monitoring of all variables but a simple stopwatch is sufficient if required. Connections by standard 4mm leads. Requires a 12V d.c. 3A smoothed or regulated power supply. Dimensions 220 x 110 x 80mm. Probe not included.
