MR87 Desk Stand Meter
Product Code : SCL-EAE-11355
Quick answer: The MR87 Desk Stand Meter is a bench-mounted analogue meter for practical electrical measurement. Pointer movement across a graduated scale lets students watch a circuit quantity rise, fall or reverse, and the measuring function and range are specified when ordering. Lab Exports manufactures it in Delhi for schools, colleges and universities.

How it is used in teaching
Analogue meters are still preferred for many physics lessons because the pointer shows the trend of a changing quantity at a glance: students see a reading creep up as a rheostat is moved, flick as a switch closes or swing the other way when polarity is reversed. The MR87 places such a meter on a desk stand at bench level for individual experiments and teacher-led demonstrations.
The same basic moving-coil movement is used in all common analogue instruments. With a low-value shunt resistor in parallel it becomes an ammeter, with a high resistance in series it becomes a voltmeter, and on its own, with a centre-zero scale, it serves as a galvanometer for detecting small currents and their direction.
- Confirm the meter function, range, polarity and terminal markings before use.
- Place the instrument on a stable bench and switch off the circuit.
- Connect an ammeter in series or a voltmeter in parallel, observing polarity.
- Switch on, watch the pointer and read the value against the scale.

Frequently asked questions
What is the MR87 desk stand meter used for?
For bench electrical measurements and for teaching analogue scale reading, pointer deflection and correct meter connection in circuit experiments.
Why use an analogue meter when digital meters are available?
An analogue pointer shows the direction and rate of change of a reading at a glance, which helps students see how a circuit responds, and it trains them in scale reading.
