KD2 Pro Thermal properties analyzer
The KD2 Pro is a handheld device used to measure thermal properties. It consists of a handheld controller and sensors that can be inserted into almost any material. The single needle sensors measure thermal conductivity and resistivity; while the dual needle sensor measures thermal conductivity, resistivity, volumetric specific heat capacity and diffusivity.
