NAM01
NANOVOLT AMPLIFIER
- NAM 01 is a reasonably priced general-purpose nanovolt amplifier. It is extremely suitable for use with low level
signals, for instance from differential temperature sensors, thermocouples,
heat flux sensors, thermopiles etc. Using NAM01 signals can be analysed that
would otherwise remain invisible. The amplifier is suitable for use
with Hukseflux heat flux sensors, in particular with the models of the DT- ,
NF and CHF series.

INTRODUCTION
- Using NAM01 in combination with
thermocouples, one can reach sensitivities of a few hundred microkelvins.
-
- In its standard setting NAM01 is
optimised for use with Hukseflux’ CHF and
DT sensors.
-
- It is possible to change the
amplification and response time to other values.
- In general this will also affect the
input range.
- Please consult Hukseflux about the
possibilities.
