What is new at Hukseflux
October 2008:
The sensors IR02 and LP02 are upgraded with a programmable output, available in the products: IR02-tr and LP02-tr.
The output can be programmed to the customers choice, for example 4-20mA.
July 2008: Hukseflux celebrates it's fifteenth anniversary.
June 2008: Launch of the new pyrheliometer, the DR01. A first class pyrheliometer for direct radiation measurement, various tracking solutions can be offered by Hukseflux.
April 2008: Hukseflux opens a local office in the USA, in Manorville NY.
http://www.huksefluxusa.com. Local contact is Mr. Robert Dolce, telephone number 631-251-6963.
April 2008: introduction of the SBG01 water cooled heat flux sensor according to Schmidt Boelter.
September 2007: Introduction of the pyrgeometer IR02. IR02 is a sensor that can be applied for Far Infra Red (FIR) radiation observations. The main application is in meteorological outdoor experiments.
May 2007: launching of two new products: a first class pyranometer, the SR11 and a 4-component net-radiometer at a very interesting price level, the NR01.
March 2007: cooperation with Genisim (Canada) for simulation of thermal aspects of Aluminium Furnaces.

December 2006: supply of heat flux sensors for use in solar concentrators. ABENER Spain, project PS10.
December 2006: Contract reward for prototype development of thermal needles for space application (reolith thermal conductivity measurement): The Space Research Institute (Institut für Weltraumforschung, IWF) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences.
November 2006: supply of heat flux sensors HF01 / Alusys for use in study of aluminium furnaces to Hydro Aluminium Deutschland, Germany (subsidary of Norsk Hydro)
November 2006: contract reward for supply of sensors HF02 for flare safety monitoring to John Zink, United States.
October 2006: contract reward for supply of THASYS and THISYS systems to the Canadian Space Agency, Canada, for research of thermal conductivity of carbon filled composites in the lateral and transversal direction.
June 2006: Hukseflux moved office per 01-06-2006
The new address is: Elektronicaweg 25, 2628 XG Delft
The Netherlands
April 2006: introduction of the Nanovolt amplifier, NAM 01, is a reasonably priced general purpose nanovolt amplifier.
March 2006: new accessories for Non-Steady-State Needle probes is available now. First the GT series guiding tubes are intended to facilitate measurements in hard soils, cement and bentonite. Also in case of measurements on large quantities of samples one can use several guiding tubes an one single needle. And second the Calibration Reference Cylinder (CRC series) for the needle probes TP02, TP07, TP08 and TP09 to calibrate the Non-Steady-State Probes.
August 2005: introduction of CHF01 and CHF02 change-of-heat-flux sensors, DT06 miniature needle type differential temperature sensor, and NF02 miniature needle type heat flux and temperature sensor. In particular intended for the measurements of heat flux and differential temperatures in industrial processing. (composites manufacturing, chemical processing)
June 2005: introduction of THISYS Apparatus for thermal conductivity measurement of thin samples. This instrument is intended for the measurement of relatively thin samples of high thermal conductivity materials.
November 2004: traceability of HFP01 and HFP01SC heat flux sensor calibration to National Physical Laboratory (NPL) thermal conductivity standard is established.
November 2004: sales introduction of LP02 solar radiation sensor (pyranometer).
October 2004: Hukseflux company structure is changed to a Limited Liability Company. It is now called Hukseflux Thermal Sensors B.V.. VAT number changed to NL813392172B01.
August 2004: introduction of TRSYS01 high accuracy thermal resistance measurement system with 2 measurement locations.
TRSYS01 is a measurement system with which it is possible to collect data with the necessary accuracy for analysis of thermal resistance and thermal transmittance of building elements by in-situ measurement. It can be used for measurements according to ISO 9869 and ASTM C1155 and C1046 standards.
August 2004: introduction of RHF01 a ring heat flux sensor for use in studies of fouling and slagging in boilers.
Typically used for building deposition probes. Meanwhile 6 such sensors have been used to research institutes for studies of biomass fouling behaviour.
July 2004: announcement of introduction of LP02 pyranometer. This product will be sold starting November 2004.
