Noise at work measurements
Sound Level Meters
To measure the sound level of entertainment venues such as concert halls and arenas, we recommend our Class 2 Pulsar Nova Noise at work meter (Model 44).
Noise Dosimeters
There have been recent high profile legal claims against venues for loss of hearing in staff for overexposure to loud noise. If you need to monitor the personal noise exposure of your workers (for instance, musicians, bar staff etc), then the Pulsar noise dosimeter range will be required. The Model 22 noise dosimeter system is available in Black for orchestral musicians for example (so the audience will not be aware that they are wearing them).
Interactive noise warning signs
Our range of noise-activated warning signs can be placed inside venues to warn when staff need to wear hearing protection.
Our weatherproof versions can also be placed outside venues such as public houses and nightclubs to warn people leaving to keep noise levels down - so neighbours are not annoyed by excessive noise.
