Model HFP01SC Self-Calibrating Soil Heat Flux Plate Sensor: Thermopile and film heater Heater Voltage Input: 9 to 15 Vdc Heater Voltage Output: 0 to 2 Vdc Expected Accuracy: ±3% of reading Sensitivity (nominal): 50 µV W-1 m-2 Sensor Resistance (nominal): 2 Ω Heater Resistance (nominal): 100 Ω Duration of Calibration: ±3 min. @ 1.5 W; typically done every 3 to 6 hours Weight without Cable: 200 g (7.05 oz) 6. Installation 6.1 Placement in Soil The HFP01SC soil heat flux plates, the TCAV averaging soil temperature probes, and the CS616, Water Content Reflectometer, are installed as shown in FIGURE 6-1. Partial emplacement of the HFP01SC and the TCAV sensors is shown for illustration purposes. All sensors must be completely inserted into the soil face before the hole is backfilled. FIGURE 6-1.
