Thermal stress meters

Measuring Instruments/
Test Equipment


	Thermal stress meters Thermal stress meters are mainly used to value the workplace. Thermal stress meters can detect and classify temperature in relation to the amount of moisture content. What is thermal stress? and why is thermal stress measured? People who work in installations or with machines which produce a lower energy level or a high emission of temperature can occasionally suffer thermal stress (by the influence of body temperature). This phenomenon can also cause physiological symptoms: spasms, feeling unwell and shocks which can produce in some cases the death. So, thermal stress meters are necessary to determine thermal stress. Thermal stress meters detect and classify temperature in relation to the amount of moisture content. The global standard description for thermal stress is the WBGT (Wet Bulb Globe Temperature Index). This index is consists of three different parameters: evaporating temperature (tnw), global temperature (tg) and air temperature (ta). At this page you will find diverse thermal stress meters models, as the ones which offer an index with the temperature correction of humidity / moisture content (received). If If you don't find the thermal stress meters you are looking for, please contact us and we will help you find the best solution to suit your needs by calling our offices:+44 ( 0 ) 191 377 3398 and our technical staff will advise you regarding our measuring instruments. Technical specifications for thermal stress meters can be found at the following links:
	- Thermal stress meters PCE-310 series (they allow to determine thermal stress, moisture content, dew point ... )
	- Thermal stress meters PCE-320 series (thermal stress meters with average functions, internal memory ... )
	Thermal stress can be produced in those workplaces exposed to high temperatures (firemen, blat-furnace workers, etc..) where it exists a mortal risk for the workers. When thermal stress meters are used to determine thermal stress, the risk can be detected and working conditions can be improved to avoid the danger. Thermal stress is not only suffered by human beings but also by animals living in animal housing (big fattening houses) as well as it is also suffered in the plant kingdom. Sometime, small changes within environmental conditions can cause important effects.
