OBSOLETE PRODUCT – page for information and support purposes only.

 

This shoulder-mounted, cable-free, personal noise dosimeter has a simple two-button operation, an informative LCD display and an auto-calibration function. Its built-in memory and rechargeable battery provide several working days of measurement.

USE SCENARIOS

  • Assessment of noise exposure at work
  • Occupational noise evaluation (OH&S)
  • Daily ”noise watchdog”
  • Selection of hearing protection

The personal noise dosimeter is available in a standard and ATEX-approved version. Both instrument variants simultaneously measure LAeq and LCeq. Using the Noise Reduction Rating (NRR), Single Number Rating (SNR) and/or High, Middle, Low (HML) rating method, appropriate hearing protection can be selected directly from the measured data.

The LCD display clearly shows remaining battery and memory capacity, key parameters during measurements, and even lets you review data from the most recent measurement.

Measuring all relevant noise parameters simultaneously, the noise dosimeter removes the need to perform setup tasks. Interchangeable mounting clips provide the best fit to suit the wearer’s activity and clothing.

Use the unlicensed PC software Protector to set up Type 4448, to download data after measurements and to calculate personal noise exposure.
