Product Description
The HF01 has been designed for studies of the energy balance of industrial furnaces, boilers, fluidised beds, distillation columns and ovens. The actual sensor is incorporated in a fully stainless steel housing. The first part of the cabling is metal sheathed, with an additional metal protection hose. The sensor as well as the metal cable can withstand temperatures up to 800 °C. The extension cable is made of PTFE. To avoid leakage of current, a silicon sleeve is placed over the metal sheathed cable. The sensor output consists of a heat flux signal (microvolt analog signal) and a temperature signal (type K thermocouple). The thermocouple is used to measure surface temperature, and at the same time sensor temperature.
Advantages of HF01 relative to competing models are:
- robust, in particular at high temperatures
- fast response time, so reduced experiment time
- low thermal resistance; improved measurement accuracy
