Frequently Asked Questions
A sound level meter measures sound pressure levels in decibels (dB). It captures the sound waves and translates them into an electrical signal, which is then displayed as a noise level reading.
Integrating sound meters takes continuous sound measurements and calculates an average noise level over time, providing a more accurate representation of prolonged noise exposure.
Yes, with the use of an outdoor noise measurement kit, decibel meters can be adapted for semi-permanent outdoor use, ensuring accurate readings even in adverse weather conditions.
A standard sound level meter measures instantaneous sound levels, while integrating sound meters take readings over time and calculate an average, providing a comprehensive analysis of noise exposure.
The right meter depends on your application: for detailed noise analysis, use an octave band meter like the Nova 46. For workplace noise assessments, consider models like the Nova 43/44 or Quantifier series for longer-term monitoring.
