INTRODUCTION
Large display continually monitors temperature, RH & all
heat stress indicators: TA (Air Temperature), RH, Heat
Index, Dew Point, Wet Bulb
Government organizations such as OSHA have set
recommended heat stress limits for various activities.
Continually monitor all heat stress indicators. Both models
recall min/max RH & temperature. 800034 provides visual
& audible alarms for user selectable hi/lo temperature &
RH thresholds, while 800035 provides visual & audible
alarms for user selectable hi/lo temperature thresholds.
Datalogging Model records up to 32,000 data points that
can be downloaded using the USB cable and software that
come with the unit. Both models include 4 AAA batteries
and stand on a desk-top or wall mount.
An AC Adaptor is included with Datalogger 800035 and
available as an optional accessory for Monitor 800034.
