Model HFP01SC Self-Calibrating Soil Heat Flux Plate In order to measure soil heat flux at the surface, several HFP01SCs are used to measure the soil heat flux at a depth of eight centimeters. A TCAV, Averaging Soil Thermocouple, is used to measure the temporal change in temperature of the soil layer above the HFP01SC. Finally, a CS650, CS655, or CS616 water content reflectometer is used to measure the soil water content. The temporal change in soil temperature and soil water content are used to compute the soil storage term. The -L option on the model HFP01SC Soil Heat Flux Plate (HFP01SC-L) indicates that the cable length is user specified. The HFP01SC-L has two cables; the first cable is the signal output cable and the second is the heater input cable. Two analog inputs are required to measure the HFP01SC-L. This manual refers to the sensor as the HFP01SC. The sensor's cable can terminate in: • Pigtails that connect directly to a Campbell Scientific datalogger (option -PT). • Connector that attaches to a prewired enclosure (option -PW). Refer to www.campbellsci.com/prewired-enclosures for more information. 5. Specifications Features: • Corrects for errors due to differences in thermal conductivity between the sensor and the surrounding medium, temperature variations, and slight sensor instabilities • Compatible with most of our dataloggers • Uses Van den Bos-Hoeksema self-calibration method to provide high-degree of measurement accuracy Compatibility Dataloggers: CR800 series CR1000 CR3000 CR5000 CR9000(X) CR7X CR10(X) CR23X 21X Operating Temperature: -30° to +70°C Storage Temperature: -30° to +70°C Plate Thickness: 5 mm (0.2 in) Plate Diameter: 80 mm (3.15 in) Average Power Consumption: 0.02 to 0.04 W 2
