B&K 2245-E Sound Level Meter With Enviro Noise Partner

This environmental noise solution for B&K 2245 Sound Level Meter is a complete, focused toolset for measuring and reporting on environmental noise concerns. The sound level meter’s IP55 rating ensures that you can set up and measure where you need to be, without having to worry about exposure to water or dust, for example, at a construction site. Once on-site, the sound level meter app can acquire a wide range of broadband parameters including statistics, provide 1/1- or 1/3-octave band frequency analysis, and conduct logging down to 1 s intervals. These capabilities ensure that you get the right data for your job to do. Additionally, the sound level meter can make high-quality audio recordings to aid in identifying specific incidents.

Mobile App

Once the mobile Enviro Noise Partner app is downloaded to your phone from the App Store®, all Enviro Noise Partner capabilities can be wirelessly controlled from your phone. Additionally, the mobile app provides intuitive measurement profile screens that enable you to pinch the graph to zoom or swipe it to move back and forth through time. This makes it very easy to mark events and isolate sounds so that you can, for example, exclude a barking dog from measurement. Via the app interface, pictures, text and voice notes, and videos can be embedded with the measurements.

PC App

With the accompanying PC app, all data can be transferred to a PC, wirelessly or with the supplied USB cable. Just like the mobile app, the Enviro Noise Partner PC app is an excellent tool for adding markers for events and isolating sounds for further investigation or exclusion. These tasks are made even easier with the app’s powerful audio playback tools, such as pitch-corrected high-speed playback for reviewing long recordings. To further minimise the need for additional training, the app includes pre-configured Microsoft® Excel® templates for reporting according to regional standards and regulations – select your template and job done.
