Ideal for thermal-insulation monitoring, this low-cost large-area heat flux sensor measures ±150 kW/m² from -58 to 248°F (-50 to 120°C). It uses a differential-temperature thermopile with metal encapsulation and a Type-T surface thermocouple. It suits in-situ R-value measurement and building thermal monitoring.

The HFS-6 is the first low-cost large area heat flux sensor on the market. It is particularly useful for monitoring the performance of thermal insulation and directly in-situ measuring insulation thermal resistance R-values.
The sensor has excellent sensitivity that is perfect for measurements of heat transfer through building thermal insulation. Metal encapsulation increases the robustness of the sensor itself for repeated applications of the sensor to measurement surfaces.
