Brochure Foil heat flux sensors

FHF05 series Foil heat flux sensors Five models covering the most common heat flux measurement applications Looking to measure heat flux? Start your search with the FHF05 series! These heat flux sensors are available in five different dimensions and sensitivities to suit a wide range of applications. They are flexible, have an integrated temperature sensor, and feature thermal spreaders to reduce thermal conductivity dependence. The rated temperature range is from -70 to +120 °C. FHF05 sensors measure heat flux from conduction, radiation, and convection. Optional black (BLK) and gold (GLD) stickers...

FHF05 series: versatile and suitable for most heat flux measurement applications FHF05 series heat flux sensors are suitable for generalpurpose heat flux measurement. The series consists of sensor models with five different dimensions and sensitivities. Sensors with larger dimensions have a higher sensitivity and a larger area over which the heat flux is averaged. Thin, flexible, and versatile, FHF05 sensors measure heat flux (in W/m2) either through the object in which they are incorporated or on which they are mounted. Each sensor contains a thermopile that measures the temperature difference...

FHF05 has proven to be very robust and stable. The instrument is equipped with a potted cable connection block that prevents moisture from entering and also serves as strain relief. - flexible (bending radius £ 7.5 x 10-3 m) - wide temperature range - fast response time - large guard area - integrated Type T thermocouple - robust design, including cable connection block for strain relief - IP67 protection rating (essential for outdoor and humid environments) - integrated thermal spreaders for low thermal conductivity dependence - sensor foil only: may be used in vacuum environments Suggested...

Calibration FHF05 series’ calibration is traceable to international standards. The factory calibration method follows the recommended practice of ASTM C1130-21. Working with heat flux sensors Refer to the user manual for detailed directions Installation There are various ways to install a heat flux sensor. For more information, see our application note on how to install a heat flux sensor. Options – with 5 or 10 m cable lengths – separate cable in 2, 5, or 10 m lengths – sensor foil only (without wiring and without connection block) – LI19 hand-held read-out unit/data logger NOTE: LI19 measures...

Want to study energy transport/heat flux in more detail? Hukx helps take your measurement to the next level! Order FHF05 series with radiation-absorbing black and radiation-reflecting gold stickers. You can then use one sensor to measure convective + radiative flux and the other to measure convective flux only. Subtract the two measurements to obtain radiative flux. Stickers are available for every sensor dimension. For instructions, see the BLK - GLD sticker series user manual and installation video. Optionally, these stickers can be ordered pre-applied on FHF05 series sensors. The combined...

Determine which FHF05 model/size and optional black and gold stickers may be used: – Decide if you need a minimum sensor size. – See which model fits in the available space. – Check if you want to separate radiation and convection; if so, consider BLK and GLD stickers. FHF05SC series are self-calibrating versions of the standard FHF05 models, paired with an HTR02 series heater. These sensors are used when the highest level of quality assurance is required and for long-term heat flux measurement. The self-calibrating sensor is available in two models: -50X50 and -85X85. Verify that your electronics...
