Product Review |
Dr. Vivek KapurE. I. Dupont De Nemours"The TPS with 8-channel switching system, increased our productivity several fold. Without it, we were testing no more than 10 samples/day with constant supervision. Now we can test over 50 samples/day (with minimal supervision) and still be able to attend to other activities in the lab. I cannot say enough about the help Thermtest continues to provide. They have been extremely helpful and responsive, whenever we have needed their help." ▲ |

Product Review |
Marius Haiducu, M.Sc. , P.Eng.Simon Fraser University"In our laboratory (the Laboratory for Alternative Energy Conversion, SFU), the TPS is used for measuring the thermal conductivity of a wide range of materials, ranging from thermally insulating materials to thermally conductive ones. For that entire range of tested materials, the device was able to perform a precise and reliable measurement. The results of the measurements were in very good agreement with the values found in the literature; some of the results were also compared with the results obtained with another measurement method (i.e., heated guard plate). Additionally, we are very pleased with the technical feedback and support we’ve received since we bought the equipment." ▲ |

Jeremy OglesbySpeedie & Associates"Thermtest has been wonderful to work with. The staff are incredibly personable, knowledgeable, and helpful. The TLS-100 came very well packaged for the price. The equipment does exactly what we need it to do, and it does it well. Whenever I had questions or encountered difficulties, even difficulties with particular sample types, or with formatting reports (not with the equipment), the people at Thermtest were there to help me along the way, responding to emails very promptly and helping me to understand how to perform and report thermal properties testing. After extensive research in thermal testing equipment, Thermtest demonstrated to me that they offer not only the best value, but also the best customer service. They are our recommended go to for thermal testing." ▲ |

Alejandro CeferinoGeoiberica Spa"I acquired a portable TLS-100 meter and I am really happy with this unit. In the past, I used another portable thermal resistivity meter, but my decision to work with Thermtest is because of their customer service. They always answer you in a short time and they can solve all the problems that you ask them for. I needed a new testing probe and my custom Thermtest agent did not rest until I had received a new probe in just a couple of days (from Canada to Chile). In summary, the best unit and the best service." ▲ |

PhD Materials ChemistUS National Laboratory"Several years ago, we purchased a TPS to be used for a single project. We were so pleased with our TPS that we bought another TPS along with several options for measuring thermal conductivity as function of temperature. We now use our two units for multiple projects, testing a wide range of materials, such as ceramics, concrete and thin coatings. Thermtest has been very supportive during many years of use, in particular with challenging measurements. Thermtest recommended the optimal approach to get the most accurate measurements using the thin film module and now we can successfully measure coatings as thin as 100 microns. We will definitely continue working with Thermtest for current and future projects." ▲ |

John Gaskins, Principle ScientistUniversity of Virginia"After weighing different options for bulk thermal conductivity measurements, we finally landed on a TPS for our needs due to its capability to test both large bulk samples and samples with thickness on the order of a few millimeters. Less than a year later we now own two TPS units due to its versatility and the testing avenues it has opened up for us with the addition of capabilities to test at temperatures well above and below room temperature. Throughout the process of learning the TPS units Thermtest has been readily available via the demo corner, where you can get a live look at an operational unit, email, and even by phone! The team there really puts customer service as a top priority and it makes a huge difference in getting up to speed on a new piece of equipment." ▲ |

Michael Williams, Senior Scientist & AssociatePacific Scientific EMC"We use our TPS to evaluate the thermal conductivity of a variety of components used in aerospace applications. These include metal powders, oxidizers and mixtures for use in pyrotechnic systems as well as R&D powders and a variety of other EED components where thermal conductivity is critical to safety and/or function. The TPS provides quick heat flow measurements paired with a very user friendly interface. The webinar training provided by Alysha, the applications support lead, was extremely helpful in understanding instrument operation and the Thermtest website contains considerable technical and support information. The TPS system is an integral part of our thermal analysis capabilities." ▲ |

Sadie McKeon, Research Lab TechnicianUniseal, Inc"Alysha Seely did an excellent job during the training session. She answered every question that was asked and when I was having trouble testing my samples, she arranged for another live video chat to help me figure out where the problem was. She screen shared my test results so that I could show her where I was struggling and what to do to resolve my issues. If I have any questions, she is quick to respond and help! She has also been checking in to see how things are going with our new equipment! I give her training a two thumbs up!" ▲ |

Rodger Arnold, Laboratory EngineerRESPEC Inc."The Thermtest system is very easy to use and provides accurate results. I attended the Thermtest training and received one on one instruction which was very helpful and informative. Since then, I have contacted Thermtest several times with questions about testing different materials (we mostly test rock) and have always received quick responses to my questions as well as helpful suggestions. I think their product is great! Replacement sensors were immediately available when we needed them too. I highly recommend the Thermtest system." ▲ |

Product Review |
Samuel S. Borges, Research and Development of Product DepartmentWEG - Motors"The MP-1 is a great device for determining thermal conductivity. The MP-1 with Transient Plane Source (TPS) and Transient Hot Wire (THW) methods allow high flexibility for thermal conductivity analysis, include solids, liquids, pastes, and powders. Temperature platforms (TP) for automating temperature control allow measurement of thermal conductivity in the wide temperature range (in this case, from 0 °C to 300 °C for TPS-TP and from 10 °C to 200 °C for THW-TP). However, pay attention when testing below 0C, that TPS-TP require an external source of an inert gas such as nitrogen, argon or dry gas." ▲ |

Daniel Mogollon, ChemistRTI International"The MP-1 is easy to use with software that is straightforward. We are very happy that we now have this capability at our disposal." ▲ |
