- HFS-5 Economical sensor for use in R&D heat transfer measurements and thermal systems evaluation
- HFS-6 Larger sensor for use in buildings thermal evaluation and higher sensitivity
- UHFS-09 Larger sensor, highest sensitivity and waterproof for use in geothermal studies
- HFS DAQ as the accessory of HFS series, low-cost data acquisition system to accurately measure the signals outputted from HFS heat flux sensors and their integrated thermocouples
- For sensor application we suggest OMEGATHERM™ High Temperature and High Thermally Conductive Paste

If I need to calculate the total heat power through HFS-5, should I multiply the measured heat flux with sensor area (6.5cm2) or total area (9.2cm2)?
Hi Han2021
Thank you for the inquiry. Please forward this question to TEMP@OMEGA.CON.

What is the maximum sampling rate for the HFS-5?
Hi Trevor C
Thank you for the inquiry. Sample rate would be determined by the instrumentation used. Response time of the sensor is 0.6 seconds as noted on the data sheet.

What is the output voltage range for HFS5?
Hi Daniel18
Just under 1 mv at max heat flux. You'll need a meter with micro volt level resolution.

Can the HFS-5 heat flux sensor be used outside in the weather?
Hi Trevor42
Thank you for the inquiry. This sensor is not suitable for outdoor weather conditions.

Hi, I am following up on my question about the output voltage. I need to make sure that my data logger is scaled properly. This sensor has a heat flux range of +/- 150 kW/m^2. Does +/- 150 kW/m^2 correspond to +/- 1 mV respectively? Thank you.
Hi Daniel8,
Please forward your request to TEMP@OMEGA.COM for assistance in scaling a datalogger or other meter.
