The Kestrel 5400AG Cattle HEat Stress Tracker with LiNK and Vane Mount

The Kestrel 5400AG Cattle Heat Stress Tracker with LiNK + Vane Mount

The Kestrel 5400 Cattle Heat Stress Tracker offers micro-climate measurement and monitoring at the pen or yard location. Contains a built-in Globe Temperature sensor and complete cattle-specific calculations. Measure THI and HLI and track AHLU based on easy-to-input herd and pen parameters. Perform spot checks or mount in place with the included vane mount accessory to track AHLU for months. LiNK capability allows remote access to current and logged data from your iOS or Android mobile device. Mount a mobile data equipped tablet nearby to send mobile alerts even when you're not on-site. Designed by Kestrel with input from some of the world's most respected experts in cattle heat stress, the Kestrel 5400 Cattle Heat Stress Tracker is designed to help you measure and manage your herd's heat stress, ensuring you maximize your bottom line.

Cattle Heat Stress

Heat stress can reduce health, productivity, and even cause death in livestock — all of which cost the livestock producer money. Any effective heat stress abatement plan must include knowledge of atmosphere conditions wherever livestock is housed. Using data from nearby weather stations does not always accurately reflect ground conditions.

Monitoring barn or housing conditions of livestock facilities helps you to maximize animal production and profits. By using a Kestrel 5400 Cattle Heat Stress Tracker to monitor temperature and humidity, THI, and referring to the heat stress threshold appropriate for that specific livestock, farmers can take appropriate cooling measures in time to prevent sickness and loss.

Livestock Heat Stress Measurements


THI – Temperature Humidity Index THI is calculated based on ambient temperature and relative humidity and has been extensively applied in research and management to represent the overall impact of moderate to hot conditions on cattle, especially those who are housed. Although THI is similar to the Heat Index typically reported in the local weather report, it is calculated differently. Accordingly, to obtain THI without a dedicated instrument, it is necessary to take a local temperature and humidity reading and refer to a reference table or perform calculations.	HLI – Heat Load Index The limitation of THI is that is does not take into account sun, air flow, or accumulation effects. HLI is a more complete environmental index which includes temperature, relative humidity, and the additional parameters of solar radiation and wind speed. These added parameters are most important for assessing heat stress risk in exposed, unshaded cattle. These parameters are derived from the Globe Temperature – an advanced meteorological measurement which uses a heat-absorbing metal globe. Because Globe Temperature is not available on traditional weather stations, it has previously been difficult to implement management practices based on HLI.	AHLU – Accumulated Heat Load Units AHLU is the most complete cattle heat stress model – addressing the fact that cattle accumulate heat load during prolonged heat events where they have insufficient environmental night cooling. THI and HLI alone may not predict the level of cattle heat stress because they do not address this accumulation impact.
