Check a reading against this rule

This rule has no numeric trigger the calculator evaluates — it states duties and control measures rather than a threshold a reading can be checked against. Its measures are listed below.

Governing formula

No standalone formula is published for this standard; see programmable logic and parameters below.

Programmable logic

airTempC > 26: ceiling exceeded; the mine director's high-temperature measures order (para 21) applies. Screening limit only: no work/rest schedule or stop-work trigger. The minimum (not below +16 °C; +2 °C in vertical/inclined shafts and shaft bottoms) is a cold limit and is not modelled. Applies only to coal mines (industry mining).

Inputs

Required inputs: airTempC

Optional inputs: none
