EXAIR has released the Model 9104 digital sound level meter which can measure and monitor the sound pressure level in industrial environments to prevent hearing loss.
Exposure to high noise levels for an extended period of time can lead to permanent hearing loss for workers who do not wear proper hearing protection.
According to EXAIR, companies can use its 9104 digital sound level meter to identify the source of dangerously loud noise, and then correct the problem so they can protect the workers, avoid hefty fines, and keep noise levels below the legal limits.
The EXAIR 9104 digital sound level meter measures the decibels of the sound and displays the reading on its backlit LCD.
An "F/S" response time button provides a choice of slow response measurements for comparatively stable noise measurement or fast for varying noise. The “Max Hold” setting will measure the maximum noise level of sounds and update continuously if a louder sound is detected.
