Kestrel 5400 Heat Stress WBGT Meter
The Kestrel 5400 Heat Stress WBGT Meter sets a new standard for accurately measuring heat stress conditions, offering portability, affordability, and unmatched capability. Whether you’re managing athletes, workers, or outdoor events in harsh Australian climates, the Kestrel 5400 delivers precise data to help prevent heat-related illnesses.
Key Features:
- WBGT Measurement: The Kestrel 5400 provides real-time Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) readings, a critical indicator of heat stress risk, used by professionals worldwide.
- Thermal Work Limit (TWL): In addition to WBGT, it also calculates TWL, a globally recognised measure of human heat tolerance, factoring in personal clothing and environmental conditions.
- Enhanced Screen: This device's high-contrast, sunlight-readable display and scratch-resistant window make it suitable for any environment.
- Alert System: Flag warnings with a loud buzzer and LED beacon notify you when conditions reach critical levels, ensuring fast decision-making to protect people in high-risk situations.
- Bluetooth LiNK: Seamless data transfer to smartphones, tablets, and computers. LiNK works with iOS and Android devices, enabling real-time data access and the ability to log, analyse, and share data remotely.
Practical Design for Tough Environments
Designed to withstand extreme conditions, the Kestrel 5400 is waterproof (IP-67 rating) and rugged, making it ideal for use in outdoor settings, industrial worksites, or sports events. The upgraded AA battery ensures long-lasting performance, with an average life of 400 hours.
Why Choose Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) Over Heat Index?
The WBGT is the most accurate indicator for assessing heat stress risk because it considers temperature, humidity, wind speed, and radiant heat. The heat index only factors in temperature and moisture, which isn’t sufficient for assessing heat stress, especially in sunny or breezy environments like those commonly experienced in Australia.
Monitor Heat Stress Indoors & Outdoors
Whether in an outdoor sports event or an indoor industrial site, the Kestrel 5400 adapts easily. The 'indoor' WBGT mode eliminates the effect of direct sunlight, ensuring accurate measurements in factories, warehouses, and other indoor settings.
Precision with the Black Globe Sensor
The Kestrel 5400’s 25mm black globe sensor measures radiant heat from the sun and surrounding surfaces. This data, combined with air temperature and humidity, provides a detailed picture of thermal stress in the environment. Ideal for professionals in industries requiring heavy protective gear, this meter helps manage the risks of heat-related illnesses by allowing adjustments based on real-time data.
Easy to Use, Portable Weather Station
The optional rotating vane mount transforms the Kestrel 5400 into a full-featured portable weather station. Perfect for long-term monitoring or event planning, this feature allows for continuous data collection of wind and temperature conditions.
Additional Features:
- Measures wind speed, pressure, humidity, heat stress index, and more.
