Ultra-sensitive plate heat flux sensor UHFS-09 UHFS-09
  • 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

What data logger can be used with your heat flux sensors?

Asked by: Navid93
Thank you for the inquiry. We have the new Layer N system with SP-016-1. Part of the modular Layer N system; https://www.omega.com/en-us/layer-n/smart-probes/p/SP-016-Series Best regards OMEGA

Does Omega know the density and specific heat values for the heat flux sensor HFS-5? If positive, please disclose the average values of these properties.

Asked by: JorgeDB
Hi JorgeDB, Thank you for the inquiry. For these questions and in depth questions on application please forward request via email to TEMP@OMEGA.COM. Best regards OMEGA

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)?

What is the maximum sampling rate for the HFS-5?

Asked by: Trevor42
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. Best regards OMEGA

What is the output voltage range for HFS5?

Asked by: Trevor42
Hi Daniel18 Just under 1 mv at max heat flux. You'll need a meter with micro volt level resolution. Best regards, OMEGA

Can the HFS-5 heat flux sensor be used outside in the weather?

Asked by: Trevor42
Hi Trevor42 Thank you for the inquiry. This sensor is not suitable for outdoor weather conditions. Best regards, OMEGA

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.

Asked by: Trevor42
Hi Daniel8, Please forward your request to TEMP@OMEGA.COM for assistance in scaling a datalogger or other meter. Best regards, OMEGA
