Small yet robust: Cirrus Research's doseBadge

It is critical for organisations to carry out a noise survey to ensure workers are not exposed to high levels of noise. In jobs of high risk and hazardous nature, a reliable and strong measurement instrument is needed to ensure trustworthy sound measurements are achieved.

Cirrus Research, a leading expert in the creation and production of noise measurement instruments, has a solution at hand. Following a strong demand from the petrochemical and mining industry, Cirrus Research developed the IS (Intrinsically Safe) doseBadge noise dosemeter. Ideal for use in this sector thanks to its ATEX, EEx and IECEx Intrinsic Safety Certification, the IS doseBadge is the perfect instrument for implementing a personal noise measurement program.

James Tingay, group marketing manager at Cirrus Research comments: “The IS doseBadge is perfect for most hostile working environments. It is small and lightweight, yet extremely robust and can be used in the toughest of environments. Its self-contained design, with no external controls, fragile displays, cables or microphones, helps reduce the risk of damage, misuse or tampering.

“The wearer can't break the doseBadge by knocking or dropping it. They can't catch it on anything, or disconnect it from its power supply. In fact its operation cannot be impeded in anyway, either deliberately or accidentally. The result is that IS doseBadges can be used to measure and record occupational noise exposure, assess the risk of noise induced hearing loss and help organisations.”
