Hot Disk

World-Leading Thermal Conductivity Analysers

Test Thermal Conductivity, Thermal Diffusivity and Specific Heat of most material types in a single measurement! This is possible with the absolute Hot Disk method, with no need for repeated calibrations or use of standard samples. This flexible method merely requires one or two pieces of the sample in question to test, each with no more than one flat surface where the sensor can be applied. There is no need for fixed geometries, contact agents or surface modifications.

Sensors

The Hot Disk sensor, at its core, is an insulated nickel double spiral, which is utilized for both transient heating and precise temperature reading. The insulation material makes the sensor mechanically stable and durable, and the use of nickel metal in the spiral makes the thermal conductivity measurements accurate.

The Kapton-insulated sensors are the most versatile in the Hot Disk sensor portfolio. They have a long lifetime, if handled with care, even when employed at temperatures as high as 300 °C in air atmosphere.

Teflon-insulated sensors are designed for use in extreme conditions, such as acidic or corroding environments, or with sticky and reactivate samples. These sensors otherwise have features similar to the Kapton sensors.

The mica-insulated sensors are designed for measurements at elevated temperatures, typically above 300 °C and up to a maximum of 800 °C. They are commonly more perishable at higher temperatures, but easily replaced.
