Type 7915 Small Wind Turbine Sound Power Software
This PULSE software determines the official sound power of a wind turbine when making acoustic measurements according to the latest versions of the measurement standards of the British Wind Energy Association (BWEA), American Wind Energy Association (AWEA), and IEC 61400-11, ed.3.0, Annex F. It works together with a microphone placed
Type 7914 Wind Turbine Sound Power Software
This PULSE software determines the official sound power of a wind turbine by guiding the user through the necessary steps to meet the measurement standards IEC61400–11 and FGW Technischen Richtlinie für Windenergie. It works together with a microphone placed at the downwind reference position of the turbine, and interfaces to
Type 7885 Outdoor Machinery Noise Software
This PULSE software determines the official noise levels of outdoor machinery by guiding the user through the necessary steps to meet ISO measurement standards. It works together with microphones that are positioned on an imaginary hemisphere surrounding the test object. The software controls the test and helps the user ensure
Type 7884 Product-Noise Software For Reverberation Rooms
This PULSE software determines the noise levels of products by measuring their sound emissions in a reverberation room using multiple microphone positions. The sound power is determined from sound pressure measurements. In some tests, multiple source positions have to be measured at multiple microphone positions. In others, a single rotating
Type 7883 Earth-Moving Machinery Noise Software
This PULSE software determines the official noise levels of earth-moving machinery by guiding the user through the necessary steps to meet ISO measurement standards. It works together with six microphones that are positioned on an imaginary hemisphere surrounding the test object, and a weather station. For some tests, an extra
Type 7882 Product Noise Software Using Sound Intensity
This PULSE software determines the noise levels of products by measuring their sound intensity with a hand-held sound intensity probe. The user measures the sound on a flat, virtual surface on every side of the test object, at a very close distance. Because the acoustic measurements are so close to
Type 7799 Product Noise Emission Software For Free Fields
This PULSE software determines the noise levels of products by measuring their sound emissions in a free-field acoustic environment using multiple microphone positions. The sound power is determined from sound pressure measurements, where the user measures sound on a flat, virtual surface on every side of the test object. Beyond
