Systems and tools for monitoring environmental parameters needed for the evaluation of heat stress and thermal comfort.
Heat shield is a portable system for real-time WBGT, Operative Temperature, Heat index calculation. It can be held in hand or fixed on a tripod for short-term monitoring campaign. It can be used indoor or outdoor and can be connected to satellites for measurements in different points. Supplied with a software for data downloading, assessment…
The system consists of a specific set of sensors and a tripod-mounted data logger. The selection of sensors is made according to the application: thermal comfort, thermal stress or cold. Some indices (including WBGT, heat index, operating temperature and percentage of people dissatisfied with floor temperature and radiant asymmetry) are already calculated within the data…
For the real-time assessment of the health and safety of workers in conditions of high thermal stress, portable systems are not normally equipped with all the features required for long-term permanent monitoring.we have developed a system suitable for large industrial plants where it is necessary to permanently monitor the conditions of instantaneous thermal stress in…
