REDUCE THE RISKS OF DANGEROUS HEAT RELATED ILLNESS
HeatAlert™
HeatAlert™ system alerts employers, employees and visitors in real time, that the heat index is at a dangerous level.
Values align with the updated 2022 OSHA/NOAA Heat Index standards
HeatAlert™ systems can be installed indoors or outdoors in all types of work environments to visually alert management, staff, and visitors that hazardous heat conditions exist. New standards have been established by NOAA/OHSA and whenever dangerous conditions are detected, personnel must follow standard operating protocols to protect themselves from heat stroke, heat exhaustion, and other heat related injuries. HeatAlert™ will monitor temperature and humidity, using wet bulb/dry bulb algorithms, and convert the reading to the new Heat Index (NOAA/OSHA standard), alerting you and your employees when it is at Caution (80-90 deg), Extreme Caution (91-102 deg), Danger (103-124 deg).
Benefits
The benefit of using HeatAlert™ systems is that the heat index (combination of temperature and humidity) is monitored continuously in real-time and when the heat index reaches a dangerous level the HeatAlert™ system immediately produces an easily seen and recognized visual alert. Audible warning alarms are ineffective in some work environments, but an enhanced visual LED strobe light warning will be instantly seen and recognized.
Features
- Amber and red beacons flash in specific patterns to indicate three different alert levels from “Caution“ to “Danger.“ Display on unit updates every 10 seconds.
- Wall-mounted or pole-mounted. Comes with wall or pole-mounted 24 in. (610 mm) HeatAlert sign.
- AC powered for use inside buildings and other enclosed spaces.
- High-intensity LED strobe light assembly. Custom sign/strobe light mounting hardware.
- Wi-Fi adapter allowing readings to be shown on a simple webpage.
Where to use HeatAlert™
HeatAlert™ systems should be installed in every environment where people work or play and might be in danger of exposure to extreme heat conditions. These could be indoor manufacturing, warehouse, or processing facilities, outdoor job sites, power stations, prison yards, military bases, sporting venues, agricultural worksites, construction sites, or anywhere people may be exposed to extreme heat.
It provides reliable alerts about the current Heat Index as defined by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and in the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).
Heat Illness Mitigation Policy Guideline
Since OSHA has begun to recognize the importance of protecting workers from heat illnesses, your company may need to develop a Heat Illness Mitigation Policy to comply with OSHA’s standards. To assist you, we have created a free report to help you understand what is needed, and how to create a standard operating procedure (SOP) to protect your workers from excessive workplace heat.

Employers are responsible for worker safety, which includes protecting them from the dangers of excessive heat. The standard measurement is the Heat Index, which is a combination of air temperature and humidity.
Here are links to 2 pages on OSHA's website with more information on workplace safety guidelines for employers and employees.
