Integrating Sound Level Meter

The CEL620 provides a large set of parameters, such as "A" and "C" weighted Max, Min and Peak. As an Integrating sound level meter, the CEL620 also provides the average sound level Lavg and Leq. All measurements are made in parallel, which means you do not need to decide beforehand which ones you need - they are all stored.

Occupational Noise Regulations - OSHA and Others

All the CEL620 series meters are suitable for measurement to the USA standards OSHA, ACGIH, MSHA as well as regulations from all other parts of the world. Most regulations (including OSHA) require the use of a Type 2 calibrated meter that can measure the Lavg to enable accurate TWA noise exposure calculations. The CEL620 also measures the Peak for loud banging noise along with "A" and "C" weighting for hearing protector checks.

Data Logging and Insight Software

The CEL620 comes complete with data logging capability. Measurements are stored in the meter's internal memory. When connected to a Windows computer, the meter acts like a memory card (shows as a removable drive) so the measurements can be loaded into a spreadsheet or moved to your hard drive for long term storage. There is no need to buy and install special software, which can be a real benefit on a company network where the installation of software is not encouraged.

If you want a little more than just loading the measurements into a spreadsheet then the Insight software simplifies the process of downloading the measurements, storing them in a database, managed by person, place or process criteria. To get the Insight software for the CEL620 include item ISC004 with your order.

 

Our Recommendation

For basic occupational noise measurements, we recommend order code CEL620A2-K, which includes the Type 2 CEL620A2 and Calibrator. The standard meter is data logging and measurements can be transfered to a spreadsheet. For convenience you can add the Insight software to make the download and analysis process easier. If you are unsure, Insight can be ordered at a later date.

For more advanced use, or where the noise levels are particularly high, we recommend the CEL620B2-K with with real-time octave band filters. This gives the ability to assess the level at the ear when wearing different hearing protectors.
