Castle VibA(8) on show at HSM Coventry

Since its launch, the VibA(8) has taken the market by storm due to its novel approach to human vibration monitoring. This has involved creating a user operating system that takes away all the guesswork and means there is no complicated setup or operation required.

Users can simply switch on, plug in a sensor and immediately start measuring. This is because the meter will detect which sensor is being used and automatically change the settings, selecting the correct filters and parameters for the job at hand. All the user needs to do is ensure the sensor is in the right place and press start.

Following measurement, the data is simply transferred to the free VibData PC software from which tables and graphs can be copied and pasted into any of your usual PC applications.

Hand Arm and Whole Body Vibration at work are both governed by the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005, which require all UK companies to assess and control the vibration exposure of workers. This involves knowing the vibration level being produced by equipment and machinery and the best way to do this with a high level of accuracy is to take your own measurements. The Castle VibA(8) is designed specifically to give compliant data directly for the source in real-world use.

Castle will also be showing their full range of other products including the Vexo Hand Arm Vibration Meter, the SONIK workplace sound level meter and the dBAir cloud-based sound analyser. You will also be able to talk to members of the team about their wide range of competence courses, equipment rental and consultancy services.
