Systems for Environment
dB Air works anywhere in any weather
Measuring environmental noise often involves working in bad weather and at difficult locations during unsociable hours. The instrumentation employed needs to be tough, weatherproof, designed for the purpose and easy to use. With every Castle dBAir Environment Assessment System you’ll find exactly that. Specifically designed to help you with assessments to BS4142, site noise survey reports, local authority complaint measurements and much more, these dBAir Environment Assessment Systems are the result of nearly 50 years of knowledge and experience with noise in the environment. |
Systems by Application
Construction Assessment System
dBAir Safety & Environmental Short Term System 1/1 & 1/3 Octaves - Class 1 Measuring sound in the construction industry is historically complex. The multiple varied imeasurement requirements can create unique and demanding challenges for standard sound level meters. The dBAir Construction however, is committed to providing you with a solution to every requirement. For Planning Conditions, BS5228 Assessments, Complaints and Occupational Noise Measurements. |
Railway Assessment System
dBAir Safety & Environmental Short Term System 1/1 & 1/3 Octaves - Class 1 With the ever increasing development of land near to railway lines, it is inevitable that noise complaints are becoming more prevalent. The effect is mainly felt by local authorities and consultants who are being asked to carry out more assessments for this application. The dBAir systems in this section are configured to make sure you have everything you need to fulfil the needs of the task at hand. This system will also suit many other environmental noise monitoring applications, especially where mechanical noise is the cause of complaints in residential areas |
BS4142:2014 Assessment System
dBAir Environmental Short Term System - Class 1 The new version of BS4142, published in 2014 has a number of specific requirements for a sound Level meter including statistical parameters, the ability to measure overnight if required and weather monitoring. The Castle dBAir system shown here has the functionality to handle BS4142 assessments and the optional weather monitoring station will provide the required parameters to ensure compliant reports. |
Boundary Assessment System
dBAir Environmental Short Term System - Class 1 Whilst some site boundary monitoring is required to be permanent, there is raft of situations that require boundary noise assessments for shorter periods of time. This dBAir system is ideally suited to being left unattended for a few weeks at a time, with minimal maintenance required and ultimately simple data acquisition. Whether you need to monitor sound on a construction site, nuclear power station, or factory boundary, the dBAir will have you covered. |
Consultants Assessment System
dBAir Safety & Environmental Short Term System 1/1 & 1/3 Octaves - Class 1 (WITHOUT TRIPOD) Acoustic Consultants need sound monitoring equipment that is flexible, powerful and always ready. The IT-footprint-free dBAir sound meter generates its own csv files directly on-board so there is no need for complex software, which is never on the right laptop when you need it. If you do need analysis, the Castle Cloud software platform can deliver that from wherever you are in the world. Other than that, this dBAir consultant system can be configured to be exactly what you need it to be right now, and then you can re-configure it later if you need it to do more! |
