Description

The globe thermometer is used in studies to determine heat stress. A 6 inch diameter hollow copper sphere is painted with a matte black paint to absorb the radiant heat from surrounding objects. After a time lag, the temperature at the center of the sphere is a measure of the radiant heat. A thermometer inserted through a rubber stopper indicates this temperature from 0C to 100C (0.5 graduations). Supplied with a heavy stand and a mounting support.
