No, nothing is used to measure the Richter scale. The Richter scale is used to measure the intensity of earthquakes.

The Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) is used to provide a relative measure of the explosiveness of volcanic eruptions.

What is the unit to measure chilly heat?

Chilly heat is an oxymoron!Chili heat is measured on the Scoville scale and recorded in Scoville Heat Units. Although the scale is based on the amount of capsaicin in the chili, it is an arbitrary scale. This is because it is an empirical measure which depends on tasters' judgement. Not only that, but after tasting a few chilis in a short spell of time the heat receptors in the tasters' palates get desensitised, and so the rating depends on how early in the process a particular chili is tasted.
