Featured Equipment
PASPORT High Resolution Force Sensor
The PASPORT High Resolution Force Sensor is designed to make very high resolution measurements of pulling and pushing forces.
PASPORT Rotary Motion Sensor
The PASPORT Rotary Motion Sensor measures angle, angular velocity, angular acceleration and linear position, velocity, and acceleration.
Rotational Inertia Accessory
Add the Rotational Inertia Accessory to a PASCO Rotary Motion Sensor (PS-3220 or PS-2120) to study the rotational inertia of a disk, a steel ring, and point masses.
Support
Many lab activities can be conducted with our Wireless, PASPORT, or even ScienceWorkshop sensors and equipment. For assistance with substituting compatible instruments, contact PASCO Technical Support. We're here to help.
