Noise assessment kits
April 1st 2008

Pulsar Instruments has introduced 'Safety Professionals' noise assessment kits that provide a custom-made solution for resolving specific noise risk assessment issues.

The latest noise directive requires companies to assess the risk from noise exposure levels for their workers and visitors. A clear report must be created with a prioritised action plan of how the company plans to eliminate or minimise these hazards.

Finding out exact working practices can be difficult as often workers do not realise what they actually do during a typical day. Dosimetry can be used to determine working practices and can be used to great effect in conjunction with a sound level meter.

Pulsar Instruments offers a range of sound level meters, from simple-to-use instruments such as those in its Assessor range to a Model 30 or 33 real time analyser for more exacting applications.

The meter can be augmented with one of the company's Model 22 doseBadge systems. These allow an accurate assessment of the daily exposure levels of those at risk. The company points out that dosimetry is especially suitable for applications where workers are regularly moving about.

Pulsar also offers software packages so measurements can be downloaded and automated yet comprehensive reports produced.

The company will be at Safety & Health Expo.
