Portable Thermal Conductivity Meter: MP-2
An economical meter with a unique selection of transient thermal conductivity sensors for a variety of application including liquids, solids, pastes and powders, with a focus on primary measurements. The MP-2 controller auto-detects the connected sensor and loads corresponding testing parameters. Measurements are easily performed with the smart on-board software and transferred to computer with an included Windows utility program.
