From its name we learn that most of the GOST standards of the Russian Federation came from the Soviet Union period. Creation and promotion of the Union Standards began in 1918 after introduction of […]

While applying double hearing protection helps prevent auditory damage, it may compromise effectiveness by isolating the user from his or her environment. With hearing protection on, a […]

Courtesy: Pattern approval for measuring instruments eq = equivalent. Equivalent values are a form of time weighting that is easier to read on a display than the instantaneous sound level. If you look at these graphs of sound level over time, the area under the blue curve represents the energy. The horizontal red line drawn to […]
Courtesy: Pattern approval for measuring instruments The second letter indicates the frequency weighting. “Pattern approved” sound level meters typically offer noise measurements with A, C and Z frequency weighting. Z-weighting represents the sound pressure equally at all frequencies. A-weighting, weights lower and higher frequencies much less, and has a slight boost in the mid-range, representing the sensitivity […]
Courtesy: Pattern approval for measuring instruments Personal noise dosimeter A common variant of the sound level meter is a noise dosemeter (dosimeter in American English). However, this is now formally known as a personal sound exposure meter (PSEM) and has its own international standard IEC 61252:1993. A noise dosimeter (American) or noise dosemeter (British) is a specialized sound level meter intended […]
Courtesy: Pattern approval for measuring instruments A sound level meter (also called sound pressure level meter (SPL)) is used for acoustic measurements. It is commonly a hand-held instrument with a microphone. The best type of microphone for sound level meters is the condenser microphone, which combines precision with stability and reliability. The diaphragm of the microphone responds to changes in air pressure caused by sound […]
Courtesy: Pattern approval for measuring instruments The usage of an ultrasonic thickness gauge for non-destructive testing to check material properties such as thickness measurement, is regular in all areas of industrial measurements. The ability to gauge thickness measurement without requiring access to both sides of the test piece, offers this technology a multitude of possible […]
