Benchtop High-Precision Material Thermal Conductivity Tester (Guarded Hot Plate Heat Flow Meter Method) is a high-precision instrument designed to measure thermal conductivity and thermal resistance of materials using the widely accepted guarded hot plate heat flow meter method. The instrument applies a stable temperature on one side of the sample, measures the heat flow transmitted to the cold side, and calculates thermal conductivity and thermal resistance automatically. Featuring imported sensors and advanced computer control, the system ensures high measurement accuracy, reliability, and excellent repeatability. It is particularly suitable for low thermal conductivity materials (accurate to 0.1 mW/m·K) and can be used to test plastics, rubber, insulation materials, aerogel panels, vacuum glass, and more. This instrument is widely applied in universities, research institutes, quality inspection agencies, and industrial enterprises.

Test Procedures
Prepare the sample ensuring flat, parallel surfaces and proper dimensions.
Place the sample between the hot and cold plates.
Set the desired hot and cold plate temperatures using the computer software.
Apply controlled pressure to the sample via computer-controlled clamp.
Start the measurement; the system automatically measures heat flow and sample thickness.
Wait 15–20 minutes for the steady-state thermal condition.
Software calculates thermal conductivity and thermal resistance and generates a report.
Store or print measurement results as needed.
