Construction and industrial sites are greatly affected by weather conditions. Among them, wind (wind speed) is a key field management factor that determines response to heat waves and the safety of working at heights.
The perceived temperature must reflect the wind to be accurate.
The perceived temperature is not calculated based on temperature and humidity alone. Accurate calculations include wind speed. For example, under conditions of temperature 35℃ and humidity 60%, the perceived temperature differs by several degrees (℃) when there is no wind and when the wind speed is 3m/s. This difference directly affects the ‘Caution-Warning-Danger’ level determinationin the field.
Most existing thermometers use only temperature and humidity and assume no wind conditions as the default. By integrating an anemometer, it is possible to calculate much more precise perceived temperature by reflecting the actual wind speed measured on site in real time.
Wind speed at construction sites is important in addition to heat waves
For high-altitude work such as tower cranes, steel frame assembly, and curtain wall installation, whether or not to stop work is determined based on wind speed standards. To meet occupational safety and health standards, it is necessary to be able to measure, display, and record wind speed in real time in the field.
Features of Ace Development's smart anemometer
- Can be configured independently or integrated with a smart sense thermometer
- Reflect actual field-measured wind speed in real time → Calculate precise perceived temperature
- Wireless (LoRa/LTE)-based remote monitoring and data Record
- Construction site safety level indication (Caution, Warning, Danger) linkage
Accurate perceived temperature begins with accurate wind speed.
