KidWind Mini Water Pump with Tubing
Order code: KW-PUMPKIDWIND MINI WATER PUMP WITH TUBING
The KidWind low voltage water pump with tubing is a great way to demonstrate and make visible, power output from KidWind wind and solar kits. It makes comparing different turbine designs easy; simply measure how high different turbines can pump water using this mini pump.
With this kit you can:
Demonstrate how much power your turbine is generating
Judge a turbine design challenge
Make a solar-powered water fountain by adding the KWC0034-01 Solar Panel 3.0V/200mA
Note: This pump works with the KW-AWXAdvanced Wind Experiment Kit
but NOT with the KW-BWX Basic Wind Experiment Kit or KW-MWT MINI Wind Turbine.
Concepts:
Understanding clean energy
Exploring energy transformations
Understanding the relationship between energy and forces
Exploring forces and motion
Developing and using physical models
Understanding differences between energy and power
Analysing and interpreting data
Designing controlled experiments
Optimising designs
Specifications:
Operating voltage range 2-3 volts
Operating amperage range 0.2-0.5 Amps
FAQs:
Q Is this pump food grade?
A NO!
Q Can I compare my turbine and pump set-up to those of my classmates?
A Yes, as long as you are all using the same pump. There tends to be some performance variance from pump to pump.
