Gibraltar High-Temperature Flat Plate Thermal Conductivity Meter
Product Description
I. High Temperature Flat Plate Thermal Conductivity Meter Overview
The flat plate thermal conductivity meter is a high-temperature thermal conductivity testing instrument for insulation materials, developed based on our factory's DRS-2 water flow flat plate thermal conductivity testing instrument. Compared with DRS-2, it improves resolution and automation, shortens testing time, is easier to maintain, and has more reliable instrument performance. This instrument is suitable for testing the thermal conductivity of refractory insulation, ceramic fiber, felt, textiles, plates, and bricks at different temperatures. The flat plate thermal conductivity meter is widely used in colleges and universities, research institutions, quality inspection departments, and material analysis and testing in manufacturing plants.
Reference Standards for Flat Plate Thermal Conductivity Meter: ASTM C518-04 Test Method for Determining Steady-State Heat Flux and Thermal Transmission Properties Using a Heat Flow Meter; GB10295-2008 Determination of Steady-State Thermal Resistance and Related Properties of Thermal Insulation Materials (Heat Flow Meter Method); YB/T 4130-2005 Refractory Materials Thermal Conductivity Test Method (Water Flow Flat Plate Method); GB/T 17911-2018 Refractory Ceramic Fiber Products Thermal Conductivity Test Method, etc.
II. Xiangke DRS High Temperature Flat Plate Thermal Conductivity Meter Main Technical Parameters
The DRS series flat plate thermal conductivity meter is mainly used for the thermal conductivity detection of thermal insulation materials at high temperatures. DRS-3B has a vacuum atmosphere protection function to prevent sample oxidation.

Both DRS-4 and DRS-4A are electrically pressurized and automatically measure thickness. The difference is that the DRS-4 hot plate uses heat-resistant stainless steel, with a slightly lower operating temperature, while the DRS-4A hot plate uses silicon carbide, with slightly lower pressure resistance, and the thickness measurement requires an additional thickness correction system, but the hot surface operating temperature is higher.
