HTHFS-01 Extremely High Temperature Heat Flux Sensor
The HTHFS-01 is the first heat flux sensor on the market that is capable of withstanding temperatures up to 1000 C (1800 F). The HTHFS's thermopile is constructed entirely of robust materials and placed within a high temperature inconel housing. Inconel sheathing also protects the sensor's measurement leads against extreme temperatures that is experienced in harsh testing environments.
