Extech HT30 Heat Stress WBGT Meter
The Extech HT30 Heat Stress WBGT Meter helps safety teams measure heat stress in demanding work areas. It combines wet bulb globe temperature readings with air temperature, globe temperature and humidity data. As a result, users can make quick decisions to protect staff working in hot conditions.
This instrument is suitable for factories, foundries, warehouses and sports facilities. The large display shows all key values at the same time, so there is less need to move between menus. In addition, the in/out function adjusts calculations for direct sunlight and indoor environments.
Designed for Accurate Monitoring
Because the Extech HT30 Heat Stress WBGT Meter uses a black globe sensor, it can account for radiant heat that ordinary thermometers do not detect. Readings update quickly and provide dependable information when conditions change. The lightweight design also makes it easier to carry during inspections.
Data can be transferred through the built-in RS-232 interface for recording and reporting. Supervisors can keep a record of measurements and use the information to support workplace safety programmes. Auto power off helps save battery life during periods of inactivity.
Made for Daily Use
The Extech HT30 Heat Stress WBGT Meter has a durable ABS housing that protects the sensors during routine use. Its long 254 mm body helps users reach above equipment and machinery when taking measurements. Two different set types are available, allowing buyers to choose the package that best suits their application.
Backed by CE marking and a two-year warranty, the Extech HT30 Heat Stress WBGT Meter is built for reliable service in professional environments. The instrument offers simple operation and clear results while helping organisations maintain safe working conditions. It is an effective solution for monitoring heat exposure in both indoor and outdoor areas.
