Capacitor Based
Product Code : SCL-EI-10627
The Capacitor Based Circuit Element from Lab Glassware Manufacturer, a scientific and educational equipment manufacturer based in Ambala, Haryana, India, since 1982, is an educational electronics component used for demonstrating capacitance, charge storage, discharge, and time-delay behaviour in school physics circuits. It is supplied to schools, colleges, and institutional buyers across India and exported to countries including Jordan, Lebanon, Israel, and the Palestinian territories as part of the company's Levant region science-education supply.
Quick answer: The Capacitor Based Circuit Element lets students see how a capacitor stores electrical charge and releases it back into a circuit, using an LED, resistor, or meter to make charging and discharging behaviour visible. It should be connected with correct polarity where applicable and used only within its confirmed voltage rating.

- Suitable for physics labs, electronics labs, STEM kits, and project-based learning.
- Modular format supports quick classroom setup on compatible circuit boards.
- Designed for supervised educational use with correctly rated low-voltage circuits.
Applications / Uses
- Demonstrating capacitor charging and discharging in basic circuits.
- Teaching capacitance and electrical charge storage in school physics.
- Showing time-delay effects with LEDs, resistors, and switches.
- Introducing RC circuit behaviour in practical electronics lessons.
- Using with meters to observe changing voltage during charge and discharge.
How to Use the Capacitor Based Circuit Element
- Check the confirmed capacitance value and voltage rating before connecting the module.
- Insert or connect the capacitor element into the compatible teaching board or circuit setup.
- Connect a resistor in series where the experiment or capacitor type requires current limiting.
- Apply the recommended low-voltage supply and observe the charging behaviour.
- Disconnect the supply and observe discharge through a connected LED, resistor, or meter.
- Discharge the capacitor safely before touching terminals or changing the circuit.
Safety note: Do not exceed the confirmed voltage rating. Electrolytic capacitors may be polarity-sensitive and can fail if connected incorrectly or over-volted.
Care & Maintenance
- Store the capacitor element in a dry, labelled component box after use.
- Keep terminals clean and free from dust, moisture, and corrosion.
- Discharge the capacitor before storage or inspection.
- Replace the unit if the capacitor is swollen, leaking, cracked, loose, or electrically unreliable.
Building a Complete Plug-in Timing Circuit
The Capacitor Based Circuit Element pairs naturally with other plug-in circuit modules. Combine it with a Plug-In LED Red Top to make the charge/discharge cycle visible, add Resistors for Breadboard for current limiting and RC timing, and mount everything on the Plug-in Board for Building Components to build a complete classroom RC timing demonstration.
