Description:
The Lutron WBGT-2010SD heat stress meter measures indoor and outdoor wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) values, black globe temperature, humidity, air temperature, wet bulb temperature and dew point and is designed for objective assessment of working conditions in extreme weather.
Objective criteria for determining appropriate levels of outdoor physical activity can be valuable for manual labour in industrial situations, as they provide clear parameters for appropriate action. The US military developed the WBGT basis for their training camps, and it has since become widespread for workplaces and sports activities. The WBGT Index is useful for providing guidelines for work breaks and restrictions on intense activity.
Temperature and dew point values can be read on the device’s display and logged to SD card memory. An audible alarm attracts attention if conditions change.
Data can be logged automatically in real time at intervals from 1 to 3600 s with unlimited records or manually, by button press, to 99 readings. This means any decisions made on activity can be backed up by factual evidence of environmental conditions at a given time. The SD card can be transferred to a PC and data analysed and saved using a standard spreadsheet program.
Features:
* 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 situation It is suggested in
the international standard ISO 7243, OSHA (US Occupation Safety), Japan Society for Occupational
Health and the SMA (Sports Medicine Australia) to establish the permissible heat exposure limits in
health, sports or other physical activities.
* Measurement : WBGT value (Indoor/Outdoor Wet bulb globe temperature), Black globe
temperature, Humidity, Air temperature, Wet bulb temperature, Dew point Temp..
* Measurement function :
1. Wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT):
Indoor : 0 oC to 59 oC.
Outdoor : 0 oC to 56 oC.
2. Black globe Temp (TG) : 0 to 80 oC.
3. Air temperature (TA) : 0 to 50 oC.
4. Wet bulb temperature (WB) : -21.6 oC to 50.0 oC.
5. Humidity : 5 % to 95 % R.H..
6. Dew point Temp. : -25.3 oC to 48.9 oC.
* Unit : oC,oF, Resolution : 0.1 degree.
* Adjustable WBGT alarm setting with buzzer sound output.
* Control and monitor of physical activity in hot environment to limit the danger of heatrelated
injuries.
* Globe temperature measurement uses the Pt sensor, high accuracy.
* Fast humidity measuring response time.
* Direct measurement of the radiation effect with a brass black ball in 75 mm dia.
* Real time SD memory card recorder, it is built-in Clock and Calendar.
* Real time data recorder , sampling time set from 1 second to 3600 seconds.
* Manual data record is available, can set the different position (location) No. (1 to 99).
* Innovation and easy operation, computer is not need to setup extra software. After record the
data, just take away the SD card from the meter and plug into the computer, the measured values
with the time information(year/month/date/ hour/minute/second) can be downloaded to the Excel
directly, then user can make the further data or graphic analysis by themselves.
* SD card capacity : 1 GB to 16 GB.
* Data hold, record max. and min. reading.
* Power by UM3/AA (1.5 V) x 6 batteries or DC 9V adapter.
* RS232/USB PC computer interface.
* Complete set with the carrying case, SD card is optional.
