A Thermal Property Analyzer (TPA) is a scientific instrument used to measure the thermal properties of materials. Thermal properties describe how a material responds to changes in temperature and how it conducts, stores, and transfers heat. These properties are crucial for understanding a material's behavior in various applications, such as building insulation, electronics cooling, manufacturing processes, and more.
The TLS-100 is a portable meter used to measure thermal conductivity and thermal resistivity of a variety of samples, including soil, rocks, concrete and polymers. Tests can be performed with the push of a button and results are displayed instantly. The second generation TLS-100 has many advancements, such as sensors that are auto-recognized with corresponding testing parameters automatically loaded.
