BS01
BELT HEAT FLUX SENSOR
The BS01 is a large-area flexible heat flux and
temperature sensor for in-situ evaluation of the
insulation value of pipes. With years of
experience put into the design, it is the
“standard” for pipe insulation testing for subsea
oil pipes.

INTRODUCTION
The BS01 contains three heat flux sensing areas
and four integrated temperature sensors.
Originally designed for “simulated service
conditions testing” for subsea oil pipelines, it can
withstand high hydrostatic pressures up to 110
bar and is (contrary to other sensors) completely
water-tight. The main development effort has
gone into the prevention of penetration of
moisture into the sensor at high pressures. With
other sensors not specifically prepared for the
high pressure, penetrated moisture will on the
long term lead to instability of the sensor
calibration.
The sensor is provided with a mounting set for
easy fixation, consisting of a cover and two
springs.
BS01 was originally designed by TNO TPD.
