Heaters for verification of performance of FHF-series heat flux sensors

HTR02 Heaters for verification of performance of FHF-series heat flux sensors Hukx, the world market leader in heat flux sensors, simplifies heat flux sensor performance checks. HTR02 heaters are thin film heaters with a cable with “4-wire connection”, a known surface area, and known electrical resistance. They are used for functionality checks of heat flux sensors like FHF05 series. You can now easily and objectively check sensor performance before and after use. HTR02 heaters are available in two different sizes — 50 x 50 mm and 85 x 85 mm — and are compatible with all sensors of the FHF05...

Table 1 HTR02 heaters to be used with different FHF05 series heat flux sensors. To achieve higher measurement accuracy, it is recommended to make a guard for models FHF05-10X10, -15X30, and -15X85. See the user manual for more information. Unique features and benefits Figure 3 Model HTR02-50X50: (1) heater area, (2) passive guard, (3) cable connection block, and (4) cable, standard length C = 2 m. Heater with FHF05 series HTR02 series heaters can easily be used with all models of the FHF05 series. – makes it possible to perform a simple test of heat flux sensors – guarantees sensor stability...

- longer cable: 5 or 10 m (standard cable: 2 m) In a typical test setup (as in Figure 4), the heat losses - FHF05SC series heat flux sensors with integrated heater - FHF05 series general-purpose heat flux sensors - View our complete range of heat flux sensors. through the insulation are usually smaller than 3% and may be ignored. Measuring the heater power — voltage squared (Uheater2) divided by resistance (Rheater) — and dividing by the surface area (Aheater) gives the heat flux. The heat flux sensor sensitivity (S) is the voltage output (Usensor) divided by the applied heat flux, expressed...
