Basic Sound Level Meters for Noise at Work

For a basic noise at work survey in areas where the noise levels are not extreme (generally less than 90 dB), you can make the noise assessment using a Class 2 Integrating Sound Level Meter. For such surveys a meter that gives an immediate reading on the display is ideal. Download to a computer can be available as an option, but should not be an essential part of the process.

It is also sometimes useful to have a low cost meter available for making quick checks as keeping an expensive Integrating meter in your toolbox may not be an option. However, it is very important that a full survey is made using a Class 2 Integrating Sound Level Meter and the low cost meter is only used for additional on-site checks. See our page on the Noise at Work Regulations for more details.

If the noise levels are very high (regularly greater than 90dB) then please visit our High Noise Levels page.

NM102 Sound Level Meter - €197,00

A low cost sound level meter to keep in your toolbox for quick sound level checks when an Integrating meter is not handy. This meter is very quick and easy to use, with an auto-ranging display, so all you do is switch on and make a sound level reading.

Although ideal for quick checks (and certainly better than doing it by ear), this type of meter should not be used for a full noise survey, which should be done with at least a Class 2 Integrating Sound Level Meter.

CEL244 Noise Measurement Kit with Class 2 Integrating Sound Level Meter - €1137,00

This Noise Measurement Kit includes all the items that you need to make a basic occupational noise survey. The CEL244 Sound Level Meter is the correct grade and is calibrated to the national standards. The kit also includes a Calibrator, which is required by the noise at work regulations.

The meter gives immediate reading of the LAeq. Data logging is an option with this meter and can be bought at the same time or at a later date.

Please note that this meter does not measure the LCPeak ("C" weighted Peak sound level) and so is not suitable for assessing environments with loud bangs.
