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.
