Thermal conductivity sensor Kapton

hot disc method

Our Kapton-insulated sensors are the most versatile in the Hot Disk sensor portfolio, employed at temperatures from -238 °C (35 K) to 400 °C. They are mechanically highly flexible, and frequently attain a lifetime of several years when employed with care. The Kapton-insulated Hot Disk® sensors are available in seventeen models of different radii to date, catering to a wide range of sample sizes and topical applications. Precision measurements up to 400 °C Our current portfolio of Kapton-insulated Hot Disk® sensors for Isotropic, Anisotropic, Slab, One-dimensional and Structural Probe measurements, with operating temperature from -238 °C (35 K) to 300 °C (400 °C in vacuum or oxygen-free environment), are listed in the following table, followed by photos and detailed dimensions further down: * Not suitable for anisotropic measurements. ** For special applications and easier suspension in liquids or melts. *** Intended for large or high-conducting samples. Our current range of Kapton-insulated sensors for thin film measurements, operating temperature from -238 °C (35 K) to 300 °C (400 °C in vacuum or oxygen-free environment), are listed in the following table, followed by photos and detailed dimensions further down: 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).
