. This compact checker measures air temperature, globe temperature, and humidity to give heat stress index for using in control of physical activity in hot environment to limit the danger of heat-related injuries.
WBGT (wet-bulb globe temperature) was developed as a monitoring basis at US military training camps and became widespread for the use in workplaces and sports situations. It is suggested in an international standard ISO 7243 and many governments such as OSHA (US Occupational Safety & Health Administration), SMA(Sports Medicine Australia)and Japan Society for Occupational Health in establishing the permissible heat exposure limits in occupational health, sports or other physical activities. The applications of the heat index can be in construction, iron and steel foundries, bricks-firing plants, glass facilities, boiler rooms, mining sites, army training, marathon, beach activities and so on.
The heat index was developed by the US National Weather Service to help people avoid heat illness. Prolonged exposure and/or physical activity at a high heat index is likely to lead to sun stroke, heat cramps, heat exhaustion and even death. However, please be aware that heat index is not an exact science. The values reached are approximations. Ultimately, the final decision of whether or not to exercise or work belongs to the individual, athletic trainer or employer.
Features
 Simultaneously display WBGT/HI ,Temperature & RH  For outdoor & indoor heat stress measuring  Programmable buzzer & red LED danger zone warning  Audible alarm volume adjustable (75dB / 60dB / mute)  4 level dangerous level indicator on LCD  Wearable design with arm strap included  Display updates every 20 seconds
