COVER STORY
SOUNDS GOOD
Monitoring workplace noise and vibration is an essential part of your health and safety strategy. Here, Pulsar Instruments explains why.
If you’re tasked with measuring and monitoring noise and vibration in the workplace, you may be wondering how you can do this whilst continuing to maintain social distancing measures.
At Pulsar Instruments we supply a selection of products that make monitoring noise and vibration at a distance easier than ever before. But with everything else that’s going on in the world, is it still important to measure these things?
The short answer is yes; the health and wellbeing of your workforce should always be a priority.
Overexposure to occupational vibration from power tools and vibrating machinery can impact your employees and cause permanent damage. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) estimates that there could be around two million people at risk of suffering from Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) in the UK alone.
Similarly, the damage caused to your employees from noise in the workplace can be irreparable and life altering. Monitoring workplace noise is essential as part of your health and safety strategy to ensure you aren’t putting your employees hearing at risk.
MEASURING NOISE AND VIBRATION WHILST
MAINTAINING A SOCIAL DISTANCE When it comes to keeping your distance whilst measuring noise, the NoisePen Dosemeter is the perfect solution for the job.
This Personal Sound Exposure Meter has no cables, displays or controls, and doesn’t need a separate reader unit, making it simple to use and the only solution you will need for monitoring personal exposure in the workplace.

The NoisePen Dosemeter has the ability for users to pre-programme the start and stop times for a timed measurement up to 28 days in advance, so the device can be left out for, or posted to the user to clip in place at the required time. This feature allows for a truly contactless operation, making this the perfect device for taking measurements whilst social distancing, something that has become increasingly important to businesses across all sectors.
When it comes to measuring vibration in your workplace whilst following social distancing guidelines, then you could benefit from purchasing the Pulsar vB.
Shortlisted for the 2021 Tomorrow’s Health and Safety Awards, the Pulsar vB is the only HAV meter you need to take accurate measurements of power tools and find out how long you can safely use them for.
The Pulsar vB is easy to use and takes all the essential measurements you need to protect your workers from Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) and your business from costly fines and compensation claims.
Need to keep your distance whilst taking measurements? Add the Pulsar vB 2m Extension Cable to your purchase, which extends the range between the vibration meter and the tri-axial accelerometer, making measuring vibration safer than ever before.
