Globe Probe - Globe Probe

Globe-Thermometer ~ 150 mm, TE Typ K, zum Messen der Strahlung
Designed to simulate human skin, the globe probe will measure thermal radiant temperature. The 6" globe probe will take omnidirectional temperature measurements, ensuring a proper comfort level can be achieved. Globe probe has a Type K thermocouple.
  • For the measurement of radiant heat according to ISO 7243, ISO 7726, DIN EN 27726 and DIN 33403
  • Thermocouple type K 
  • Measuring range: 0 to + 120 °C
Thermal comfort is a crucial factor in terms of a person's physical and mental capabilities – and should be ensured through regular measurements of the individual parameters directly at the workplace.

In combination with an appropriate measuring instrument, the globe thermometer (thermocouple type K) enables standard-compliant determination and checking of the radiant heat parameter. For example, if a significant temperature difference between the ambient and globe temperature is detected, the cause could be high solar radiation through the window.

The hollow sphere has a diameter of 150 mm and there is a thermocouple type K at its centre for measuring the temperature.
