Government organizations such as OSHA have set recommended heat stress limits for various activities. WBGT (Wet Bulb Globe Temperature) provides the most accurate determination of the heat stress index based on the cumulative effect of air temperature, air movement, relative humidity and radiant heat. The WBGT is a light weight meter compact enough to carry anywhere to avoid heat exhaustion in public health, sports, military and industrial activities. It has highly accurate reading with a typical response time of only 15 seconds. This meter provides settings for both indoor and outdoor activity and includes an audible alarm, adjustable to your WBGT threshold. Each unit comes complete with a tripod screw and RS232 computer interface. The globe diameter is 1.6".
