Hukseflux - sensors and measuring systems that support the energy transition
Hukseflux, the world market leader in heat flux measurement, proudly presents the new SBG04 water-cooled heat flux sensor. The sensor of choice for cone calorimeter calibration. Let's dive into the details!
Specially designed for cone calorimeter testing
SBG04 is a water-cooled sensor that measures heat flux. SBG04 is mainly used as a calibration reference standard for testing with cone calorimeters. All specifications and dimensions are standardised for use in cone calorimeters according to ISO 5660 and ASTM E1354 reaction-to-fire tests.
The design includes two water cooling tubes fixed at a 90° angle to the sensor body, with a sensor body of a 0.5 inch diameter. The sensor may also be used in flammability, fire resistance, and smoke chamber testing. For other water-cooled heat flux sensors, see the SBG01 and GG01 sensors.
Heat flux sensor with next level technology
SBG04 measures heat flux in the range of (10 to 100) x 103 W/m2. Equipped with a black absorber, heat flux sensors of this type are designed for measurement in an environment in which heat flux is dominated by radiation.
SBG04’s thermopile sensor generates an output voltage proportional to the incoming irradiance. The sensor is water-cooled. Water cooling is typically supplied by tap water connected to the stainless steel in and outlet tubes.
These tubes stand at a 90° angle to the 0.5 inch diameter cylindrical sensor body axis, and parallel to the black sensor surface as required for testing with cone calorimeters.
Unparalleled performance in heat flux measurement
SBG04 employs a novel sensor design, which combines the benefits of foil technology of the traditional Gardon gauges with those of the thermopile technology of traditional Schmidt-Boelter gauges.
SBG04 has several advantages:

The complete range of water-cooled heat flux sensors
Our range contains more water-cooled heat flux sensors. From left to right in the picture below: the SBG01 is a sensor with a 1 inch body for measurements < 200 x 103 W/m2. The GG01 Gardon gauge is a sensor for measurements > 250 x 103 W/m2. Finally, the HFS01 is a high intensity heat flux sensor intended for concentrated solar and flammability testing.
