Heat Stress Meters
The heat stress meter is mainly used in the workplace. The heat stress meter can detect and classify temperature in relation to the amount of moisture content. What is heat stress? And why is heat stress measured? People who work in installations or with machines that produce a lower energy level or a high emission of temperature can occasionally suffer heat stress (by the influence of body temperature). This phenomenon can also cause physiological symptoms: spasms, feeling unwell and shock that can in some cases prove fatal.

Adhesion Tester
An adhesion tester measures the force required to detach a coating from a substrate. Often called a pull-off adhesion tester or peel tester, an adhesion tester applies a large amount of force to evaluate a coating's bond strength. When measuring peel force or adhesiveness, the nature of the substrate's surface plays a significant role. However, a high-quality adhesion tester features a self-aligning measuring head to compensate for any surface irregularities.
