The doseBadge noise dosemeter can be hired for one week or more to assess the noise levels that your workers are being exposed to.
Particularly useful for people who move around a lot, the doseBadge kit contains five dosemeters, making it ideal for monitoring a larger number of people during the hire period.

Noise exposure in the workplace can be assessed using either a hand-held sound level meter or using a noise dosemeter mounted on the worker's shoulder.
With a hand-held sound level meter you measure the sound level at each location and use this with the length of time the workers spends there to calculate the exposure. With a noise dosemeter you measure for the full working shift and it provides you with the overall exposure value.
Each doseBadge (there are five in the kit) contains a rechargeable battery. The unit itself is small and light weight. It mounts on the worker's shoulder to measure the noise levels close to the ear. The best way is to leave it measuring for the full working shift, providing you with the noise exposure level, LEPd, as required by the noise at work regulations.
The dBadge noise dosemeter is intended for measuring sound levels in a relatively noisy factory environment.
For sound level measurement in lower noise environments you should use a hand-held sound level meter. For longer term measurements these hand-held meters can be mounted on a tripod.
Suitable meters would be the CEL620B Class 2 Sound Level Meter or the CEL633C1 Class 1 Sound Level Meter.
