Meter measures vibration risk
June 1st 2006

A human vibration meter has been introduced by Campbell Associates to meet the requirements of the 2005 Control of Vibration at Work Regulations.

The new VM30 HVM provides a simple system for measuring and quantifying the vibration risk. It is supplied as a complete kit with mounting accessories for both hand arm vibration measurements to ISO 5349 and/or whole body vibration to ISO 2631.

The instrument is simple to operate and provides values for 3 axes of vibration simultaneously: x, y and z, and displays in real time the weighted single value answers required for assessing exposure.

The problems of excessive exposure to vibration are well documented. The VM30- HVM provides a simple means of monitoring potentially at risk personnel.
