Advantage:
Precise sensing:
CAPTEC radiant flux sensor are sensor components,
ready to be used and directly responsive to the
net thermal radiation emitted or absorbed by their
sensing area. They are easy to use : you simply apply ,
that is past their backside to flat or curved surface
and connect the terminals to any direct reading milli
or microvolt meter.
Custom tailored for better fit:
Size and shape possibilities are unlimited.
CAPTEC builds sensors as large as 150*150mm
square, as small as 5*5mm square. You can specify
intricate geometries to follow the curves of your
hardware. Computed aided design produces uniform
or profiled heat flux sensing elements to meet
your precise needs.
Integral temperature sensor:
CAPTEC can furnish heat flux sensors with integral
thermocouple built in the sensing area ideal for
heat transfer controllers
Heat flux sensing assembly:
As an added service CAPTEC can clamp heat flux sensors
to mating metal parts. Our specialised equipment
guarantees superior performance.
Ultra thin and low response time: the thinner, the shorter is the time required
to reach its steady state sensor temperature
No dependent temperature: in the range -200°C - +200°C
Electric resistance: lower than 500 Ohm
Output wires: since a positive or negative voltage
is provided depending on the heat flux orientation,
no special wiring or referring junction is required
without temperature compensation
