TPS 2500 S Thermal Conductivity System

The Hot Disk Transient Plane Source TPS 2500 S constitutes a new and improved industry benchmark Thermal Constants Analyzer test system. This general-purpose R&D instrument is designed for analyzing thermal transport properties covering an extensive range of materials of various types of geometry and dimensions. The TPS 2500 S meets ISO Standard (ISO/DIS 22007-2.2).

The patented Hot Disk TPS technique – today used in more than 200 laboratories - is highly appreciated for its ability to simultaneously determine thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and specific heat capacity from a single measurement, with limited emphasis on sample preparation. The operative simplicity of the TPS 2500 S and the performance achieved when using optimally designed Hot Disk sensors, makes this system a robust and ideal tool for tests of solids, liquids, powders, pastes and foams. The trademark high accuracy and precision makes the instrument suitable for QC testing.

Optional software modules allows the instrument to be used in special applications, such as measurements of thin films, coatings or adhesive layers (Thin Films module), high-conducting sheets or slabs (Slabs module), and anisotropic samples or layered structures (Anisotropic module) – important applications in the
electronics, geo-thermal, building materials, nuclear and chemical industries.

The test & analysis software for the TPS 2500 S system incorporates tools for automated measurements as well as automatic temperature control of external devices. The software also incorporates tools for exporting results to 3rd-party software (MS Excel), for additional processing or statistical analysis.

KEY FEATURES

Sensors. The TPS 2500 S operates a wide variety of TPS sensors suitable for different materials and applications.

Temperature Control. Automatic Temperature series measurements (Isothermal Steps) are easy to perform using either an optional external Furnace or Liquid-Temperature Bath. The test & measurement software and TPS 1500 instrument controls the external device through and RS-232 port on the rear of the TPS 2500 S instrument.

Everything to get you started. The basic TPS 2500 S system includes everything to get you started making measurements, including installation and on-site training. The instrumentation includes: Standard Measurement Module software, one Sensor and Stainless Steel reference material for data verification & Room-Temperature Sample Holder. Optional: PC with Windows XP, MS Office 2007 SBE, Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse.

Optional Software Modules. In addition to the Standard Technique, optional software for SLAB, THIN FILM, ANISOTROPIC and SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY modules is available.
