GG01 works at heat flux levels at which other sensors get toasted
Water-cooled Gardon gauge sensor for high heat flux measurement
GG01 is a water-cooled sensor that measures heat flux. The Gardon gauge sensor is based on copper and copper alloys, and works at heat flux levels at which other sensors get toasted. Optionally GG01 can be equipped with a sapphire window; to measure radiative heat flux only, and not convective heat flux. GG01 has an on-board thermocouple type K and is available with various dedicated measurement ranges.
The sensor is called “Gardon gauge” after its inventor Robert Gardon. The benefit of this technology is that it can withstand very high heat fluxes. We invested in brand new manufacturing and test equipment for producing modern Gardon gauges.
Hukseflux is market leader in heat flux measurement, worldwide, offering sensors and measuring systems. With GG01 we now also have a complete range of water-cooled heat flux meters: GG01, HFS01 and SBG01. We will gladly assist you in choosing the right instrument for your application.
