Temperature & Humidity Monitoring for 3396 Compliance

Wireless Sensor for Title 8 Section 3396 Compliance

Temperature and humidity sensors play a crucial role in ensuring employee safety and maintaining compliance with California’s Title 8, Section 3396, which mandates protections against indoor heat-related illnesses.

By setting customized alerts, businesses can monitor workplace conditions in real-time and receive notifications when temperature and humidity exceed safe levels. For example, an alert can be triggered when high temperature and humidity intensify heat stress risks, allowing employers to take immediate action—such as increasing ventilation or providing hydration breaks.

These intelligent monitoring solutions help businesses proactively protect workers from heat-related illnesses while ensuring compliance with state regulations.

Monitor Temperature and Humidity - Anytime, Anywhere

With Swift Sensors cloud-based platform, you can stay in control no matter where you are.

Guide System API

System Components

The Swift Sensors system has three simple components: Gateway(s), Wireless Sensors, and the Cloud Dashboard. The gateway acts as the central hub, securely collecting data from the wireless sensors. The sensors monitor key metrics like temperature, humidity, or vibration and send the data to the gateway. From there, the data is transmitted to the cloud, where you can access it in real-time using the intuitive dashboard on any device.

Swift Sensors XR Gateway with Scale

1. Gateway

Purchase at least one gateway. The gateway receives data from each sensor and then transmits the data to the cloud console via the local ethernet, WiFi, or cellular network (with optional module). Each gateway supports up to 150 sensors within a 300-foot radius.
