All Kapton-insulated Hot Disk® sensors can be acquired with or without attached cables. The standard cables can be used in a temperature range of -20 to +50 °C while silicone cables are available for use in the wider range of -60 to +180 °C. Sensors without cable can be mounted in dedicated sensor holders for use up to 300 °C (400 °C in vacuum or oxygen-free environment).

Other Hot Disk® Sensors

Teflon-insulated

Hot Disk® Sensor

Our Teflon-insulated sensors are mechanically flexible, geared toward liquid- or high-viscosity immersion and temperatures up to 250 °C. They are designed for use in extreme conditions, such as acidic or corroding environments, or with sticky and reactivate samples. The Teflon-insulated Hot Disk® sensors, today available in six smaller-radii models.

Mica-insulated

Hot Disk® Sensor

Our Mica-insulated Hot Disk® sensors are mechanically inflexible, and designed for measurements at elevated temperatures, typically in the 300 °C to 1000 °C range. Coming in eight models of different radii to date, they are commonly more perishable at higher temperatures, while easily replaced and available in bulk.

Hot Strip Sensors

Hot Strip Sensor

While our Hot Disk® sensors can accommodate most measurement scenarios, our Hot Strip sensors can help tackle odd-shaped and/or limited-sized samples, e.g. rectangular slabs and rods with square cross-sections. Regarding anisotropic samples, Hot Strip sensors can be used to analyze the 3D Thermal Conductivity tensor of biaxial materials, whereas the Hot Disk sensors are limited to analyzing in-plane and through-plane Thermal Conductivity of uniaxial materials.
