WBGT Meter & Heat Stress Monitor Calibration
Absolute Laboratories provides calibration services for Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) meters and heat stress monitoring systems. As heat stress regulations in Singapore become increasingly stringent under MOM’s Workplace Safety and Health framework, accurate and traceable WBGT calibration is essential for compliance.
What is WBGT Calibration?
WBGT meters measure the combined effect of temperature, humidity, wind speed, and radiant heat to assess heat stress risk for outdoor and indoor workers. Calibration ensures your WBGT meter is reading accurately against traceable reference standards, so your heat stress assessments are legally defensible.
Instruments We Calibrate
- Portable WBGT meters — all major brands
- Fixed WBGT monitoring systems
- Heat stress monitors with data logging capability
- Thermometers, hygrometers, and globe thermometers used in WBGT systems
Regulatory Context
MOM’s Workplace Safety and Health (Heat Stress) Regulations require employers to monitor WBGT levels and implement rest schedules when thresholds are exceeded. Instruments used for statutory monitoring should be calibrated regularly to ensure measurement accuracy. Our calibration certificates provide the traceability documentation required for compliance records.
