Heat monitoring system

23 July 2015

Occupational health and environmental noise and vibration monitoring instrumentation specialist, Svantek, has joined forces with LSI Lantem to become UK distributor for the Italian company’s newly-launched Heat Shield.

The compact system is designed to help reduce the risk of overheating whilst working in hot environments such as bakeries and foundries, where the use of ovens and furnaces mean that heat stress is a constant concern for employees.

"As well as measuring WBGT (wet bulb temperature – the most widely used and accepted index for assessing heat stress in industry), it can also monitor Heat Index, PMV (predicted mean vote), PPD (percentage people dissatisfied), PHS (predicted heat strain) and many more parameters,” says John Shelton, managing director at Svantek.
