Worlddidac Award CASSY-Kits
Sensor-CASSY 2 and CASSY Lab 2 have been awarded with the coveted “Worlddidac Award” 2012. On this occasion we have assembled natural science CASSY-Kits, that we offer at a special price.
The CASSY-Kits include either a Sensor-CASSY 2 or a Pocket-CASSY 2 Bluetooth, as well as the software CASSY Lab 2 and corresponding sensors for physics, chemistry or biology. Starting with two to four sensors, the case provides enough additional space for a personalized collection of sensors. It can also hold both Sensor-CASSY 2 and Pocket-CASSY 2 Bluetooth.
The “Worlddidac Award CASSY-Kits” are available for physics, chemistry and biology:
- The Physics-Kit with Sensor-CASSY 2 includes the sensors for measuring force, magnetic field and temperature. Physics-Kit with Pocket-CASSY 2 Bluetooth (for wireless measuring) includes furthermore the Bluetooth dongle, our patent-protected battery system and sensors for voltage, current, magnetic field and 3D acceleration.
- Both Chemistry-Kits include sensors for measuring temperature, pH-value and conductivity. This kit is available either as Sensor-CASSY 2 or Pocket-CASSY 2 Bluetooth.
- With both Biology-Kits measurements of pulse and skin resistance are possible. The two biology kits differ only in the interface: One model contains the Sensor-CASSY 2 and the other the Pocket-CASSY 2 Bluetooth.
To complete your existing CASSY collection we also offer the case unequipped.

Science Kit Energy
Using the new Science Kit Energy students in secondary education and schools are able to learn in an enjoyable way the physical basics of „renewable energy“.
Students carry out independently qualitative research and quantitive measurements in the fields of conversion, storage and energy transport.
- With solar cells for direct conversion of solar radiation into electrical energy, experiments can be performed to examine the dependence on illumination and angle of incidence.
- The wind turbine is used for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. By varying the rotors, students can examine practically the influence of the shape, rotor number and angle and hence efficiency.
- Besides the conversion between electrical and chemical energy, the problem of energy storage as well as energy transport is demonstrated using the reversible fuel cells.

Fuel Cell Advanced Science Kits
Student experiments on the topic „fuel cell" in secondary schools
The new Advanced Science Kit „Fuel Cell" complements the Advanced Science Kit „Energy" providing even more comprehensive experiments in „Renewable Energy".
The conversion of electrical energy into chemical by hydrolysis with a reversible fuel cell as electrolyser can be studied. The generated Hydrogen and Oxygen are each stored in a reservoir.
The fuel cell then converts the chemical energy into electrical. This powers an electric motor, a process used in automotive engineering.

New CASSY sensors
3D Acceleration Sensor S
Using the new acceleration sensor, g-forces acting on the sensor can be measured (acceleration and earth‘s gravity)
Ultrasonic Motion SENSOR S
The ultrasonic motion sensor S measures is suitable for both measuring the speed of sound and motion recording, e.g. wirelessly on a track. By calculation, velocity and acceleration can also be measured.
Climate SENSOR S
The new climate sensor allows simultaneous recording of up to 5 climate-related parameters:
- Relative humidity
- Air temperature
- Illumination
- Atmospheric pressure
- Height

Automotive Lighting System
Cornering Lights
Conventional vehicle lighting is designed for straight roads, curve or side streets are not illuminated optimally when turning. Engineers therefore developed systems that move the headlights depending on the steering wheel position at first mechanically, later electrically as well. This system is known as "dynamic cornering lights." A further addition is an additional lateral facing light referred to as a static cornering light.
Please find more information about Cornering Lights in our webshop.
The TPS module is also available as a network-ready version (738 113N). With the Software LEYLAB.control teachers can actively control and monitor the student's experiments in a networked laboratory.

Adaptive Frontlighting System
The Adaptive Frontlighting System AFS is one of the most important lighting innovations. This system (A2.1.3.3) not only adjusts the direction of the light horizontally, but also to the vertical direction. Depending on the vehicle's environment, the headlight range can vary between near (common low beam) and far (common high beam).

LED-Headlights
LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) were first used as indicators at the rear of the vehicle. Now high intensity LEDs are also used in headlights for illumination. LEDs offer higher efficiency than halogen and xenon lamps, longer life time and above all, greater design flexibility of the vehicle front

High Efficiency Electric Machines
The instructor can expand the “Electric instruction machine (ELM)” system with a stator and, optionally, two rotors in the “Electrical machine models“ system. Both rotors are provided with rare-earth permanent magnets, one with them surface-mounted and the other with internal embedded magnets. The poles are color-coded. The stator windings are also color-coded, to illustrate the three phases.
The machines can be used as:
Permanent Magnet Rotor Electrical machine models
- Synchronous motor (PMSM)
- BLDC driving motor or
- modern generator
Further information on our ELM Set Multipole stator and rotor and ELM PM magnet rotor with inner magnets is available in our webshop.

STE Renewable Energy
Experiments for Vocational Training in Electronics
Using the LEYBOLD Plug-in System (STE) students learn the important topics of vocational training in electronics in a practical way. Using the complete and cased experimental set you can integrate student experiments on the future-oriented topic “Renewable Energy and Storage” into your training. As the start of this new series we can offer you experiment kits on solar energy, wind energy and battery technology.
The didactic concept of this series is the independent development of knowledge.
Our focus is on
- An independent set up with experiment instructions
- Measurements using intuitive instruments
Not on demonstrations with unwieldy large systems. This is the perfect combination of theory and practice.
