Calibrating the Dosimeter
The Reader has a built in Calibrator, operating at 1 kHz,
114 dB.
To calibrate the dosimeter, simply push it into the calibration
cavity and press the Cal button on the Reader.
The calibration process is automatic and the results are recorded,
along with any automatic adjustments that are made. |

Configuring the doseBadge
The Reader unit can also be used to configure the doseBadge settings.
The doseBadge can be configured to meet the ISO Q=3 (for European
regulations) and OSHA Q=5 (for the American standards).
The Exchange Rate, Criterion Level, Criterion Time, Threshold
and Slow Time Weighting can be set individually in order to meet
other standards such as those published by MSHA, AICHE and ACGIH.
See the Noise
Regulations page for more information.
As the doseBadge has Dual Channels, it can have Channel 1 set
to OSHA, MSHA, AICHE, ACGIH or similar, with Channel 2 fixed to
measure with the common ISO 3dB settings. |
