Sound meter series CR-800-C

The sound meter can be used to make simple measurements or long ones. The sound measurement values transmitted via USB interface to the PC or laptop can be evaluated in several ways. The software helps to transmit data to other data processing programmes. Diagrams of the temporary pass, columns and peak presentations. The zoom function makes it possible to analyse concrete values. The software is also suitalbe to program the sound meter for long time measurements.

In the software package you can see data about the usual auditory protectors. This data bank is reviewed with each new version of software and can be updated by every user. The values of damping given by the auditory protectors manufacturer are put in relation to the measurement data and a numerical and graphical representation of their efficiency is made. The user can define a limit level. With this a preselection of the auditory protection is calculated.

If requested, the software makes reports with graphs. The information shows the measurement values with all the indications of the used sound meter and the calibration, as well as additional information (place, conditions of measurement, person) that the user will be able to complete with the aid of a form. The parameters demanded by labour health within the evaluation level are indicated and calculated within 8 hours (level of exposion to the noise). This is calculated for each measurement, so that the user can define the significant limit values. The software offers a special information form for the auditory protectors selection.

The data of the sound meter can be displayed and modified from the PC. The software works with every PC with an operating system from Win 95 including NT and XP. The installation is done with a CD.
In order to connect the sound meter to a PC, it is necessary to have a free interface of series USB or to use a USB adapter for USB interface. The program files need a 6MB memory in the hard disk.

Sound meter series CR-800-C (class I and II) integrated sound meter with internal memory, USB, software and interface cable (optional filters for frequency measurement: octave band / 1/3 )
Sound meters of the classes I and II are designed for the use in the labor security sector and for environmental measurements. The sound meters of the series CR-800 C are a selection of meters of great value that offer all the benefits of the standard international meters and meet the international norms for sound measurements but the keep their simple handling. The series complies with the DIN IN 61672-1 2003 quality norm and with the present effective standards for the sound meter. The sound meters measure all the parameters that are regulated by the law for the UVV noise control or in the new directive of the EU. If the limit values are exceeded or if it is necessary to take measurements for the auditory health, the measurements of octave band determine the frequencies and function as guidelines concerning the necessary measures to reduce the noise. The usual measurement needs of the environmental sector require a series of guidelines which all the series 800 meters comply with. Apart from the medium level Leq, the minimum and maximum level values, five statistics values (Ln) are also measured. With this, we comply with the presently existing essential directives for the environmental sector, and with possible future directives such as the noise TA. With the filter function, special sources of noises. Either with third filters or with octave filters, the sound meter crosses all the ranks of frequency successively. The meter records the average Leq level corresponding to each band of filter and it concludes with all the phantom of the frequency evaluations: LAeq, LCeq and LZeq. At the following link, you can to find other sound meters similar to this, but without LEQ function. All the meters will be delivered with the software, the cable of interface USB, the factory certificate and the instructions of use. Here you will see a general overview of sound meters.

Software
The sound meter can be used to make simple measurements or long ones. The sound measurement values transmitted via USB interface to the PC or laptop can be evaluated in several ways. The software helps to transmit data to other data processing programmes. Diagrams of the temporary pass, columns and peak presentations. The zoom function makes it possible to analyse concrete values. The software is also suitalbe to program the sound meter for long time measurements.
The software recovers the data that are stored in the sound meter automatically in a standard relation so that the user can adapt it to his/her needs. The calibrations are kept so that the reliability of the measurement values is documented. The collected data can be exported in different formats. The collection of data in octave and third octave bands is possible whenever the sound meter is equipped with the corresponding filter option. The wideband measurements are represented in tables and graphs.
In the software package you can see data about the usual auditory protectors. This data bank is reviewed with each new version of software and can be updated by every user.
