The PHFS-01 heat flux sensor from FluxTeq is an inexpensive NIST traceable sensor for long-term permanent placement ideal for monitoring heat transfer through walls, pipes, ducts, etc. Though it is extremely thin, it is very sensitive and reliable. It can be used in R&D for studying heat transfer components and for measuring the energy efficiency.
Feature Hightlights
- R&D of heat transfer components
- Energy efficiency of thermal systems
- Heat transfer education
