Employees performing different activities in industrial environment, with various clothing levels, various working conditions , and different climate variables including ambient air temperature, humidity, sun radiations level, different airflow velocities and patterns. It is very important to design a real time industrial environmental assessment tool, to assess comforts, risks and experienced disorder levels, based on measuring, monitoring and assessing the industrial environment climate indices. In the present work, a design of low-cost industrial environment assessment tool at various conditions is introduced. The system is designed to monitor the combined industrial environment, at different climate indices including; apparent temperature types (heat index, wind chill factor and wet-bulb globe temperature), discomfort index and temperature-humidity index. Based on indices' calculation results, fuzzy algorithm is used to assess the surrounding working state, setting notifications, on displays, to employees and supervisors at easy system.
