Overview
The FHF05SC series combines Hukx's proven FHF05 heat flux sensor technology with an integrated heater for self-testing and self-calibration. Designed for high-accuracy and long-term heat flux measurements, FHF05SC sensors allow users to verify sensor functionality and stability without removing the sensor from the measurement setup. The flexible design, integrated temperature sensor, and thermal spreaders make the FHF05SC ideal for applications where measurement quality assurance is essential.
