Accurately measure liquid and insulating material thermal properties

The KS-3 works best for liquid samples and insulating materials (thermal conductivity <0.1 W/(m × K)). In low-power mode, this sensor applies a very small amount of heat to the needle, which helps prevent free convection in liquid samples and melting in frozen samples. This sensor also works well for soils and other porous materials, but its small size makes it more susceptible to damage when insertion is difficult.
