Sato SK-170GT WBGT Heat Stress Monitor
The Sato SK-170GT is a portable WBGT heat stress monitor designed to evaluate hot indoor and outdoor environments. It combines temperature, humidity and radiant-heat measurements to calculate the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature index.
WBGT provides a practical indication of environmental heat stress and can help safety personnel determine when controls such as hydration, rest periods, shade, ventilation or reduced workload should be considered.
The SK-170GT is suitable for workplace heat-stress assessments, construction sites, manufacturing plants, warehouses, agriculture, schools, sports facilities and outdoor activities.
What Does the SK-170GT Measure?
| Measurement | Purpose |
|---|---|
| WBGT index | Indicates the combined environmental heat load affecting the human body. |
| Ambient temperature | Measures the surrounding air temperature. |
| Globe temperature | Detects radiant heat from sunlight, machinery and hot surrounding surfaces. |
| Relative humidity | Indicates the moisture level that affects the body's ability to cool through evaporation. |
Key Features
- All-in-one measurement: Displays WBGT, ambient temperature, globe temperature and relative humidity.
- Built-in black globe: Detects radiant heat from direct and reflected sunlight or nearby heat sources.
- Indoor and outdoor modes: Selects the appropriate WBGT calculation for the measuring environment.
- Wind-speed compensation: Allows an ambient wind-speed value from 0.1 to 3.0 m/s to be entered.
- Adjustable alarm: An audible buzzer activates when the measured WBGT reaches the selected alarm level.
- MAX/MIN display: Reviews the highest and lowest measured values.
- Display hold: Holds the current reading for easier recording.
- Tripod mounting: The rear screw hole allows stable positioning for area measurements.
- RS-232C output: Supports real-time transfer to a computer using the optional connection cable.
- Portable design: Battery operation and the included carrying case support field use.
Indoor and Outdoor WBGT Measurement
The effect of solar radiation differs between indoor and outdoor environments. The SK-170GT therefore provides separate IN and OUT measurement modes.
| Mode | Recommended environment | Heat factors considered |
|---|---|---|
| IN | Indoor locations or outdoor locations without direct solar exposure | Humidity, air temperature, ventilation and radiant heat |
| OUT | Outdoor locations exposed to direct sunlight | Humidity, air temperature, airflow and solar radiant heat |
Select the correct measuring mode before beginning an assessment. Position the instrument at the work location and allow the readings to stabilise before recording the WBGT value.

JIS B 7922 Class 2 Conformity
The Sato SK-170GT conforms to JIS B 7922 Class 2 based on the WBGT measurement principles described in ISO 7243. Its specified conformity range is:
- WBGT index: 15.0 to 45.0°C
- Ambient temperature: 20.0 to 40.0°C
- Globe temperature: 20.0 to 60.0°C
- Relative humidity: 30.0 to 90.0% RH
