A meter for HAV monitoring
March 1st 2008 Based on the UK's leading
Methodologies on Human Vibration
exposure, noise and vibration
experts, Reactec, has developed a
revolutionary method for
monitoring Hand Arm Vibration.
The HAVmeter is the core of a
new technology to manage
employee's exposure to Hand-Arm
Vibration. The low cost system has
been designed and developed
based on the feedback from major
global construction companies,
public bodies and small, local
industries trying to control and
eliminate the risks of Hand Arm
Vibration exposure.
The HAVmeter objectively
monitors and records individuals'
exposure to Hand Arm Vibration
and will alarm employees when
they are approaching their legal
vibration exposure limit.
The HAVmeter gives power tool
users a running total of their
vibration points exposure throughout
the day and warns before high
exposure levels are reached.
Additional valuable information
such as tool usage, and details of
tools producing abnormal or
excessive amounts of vibration,
can also be recorded.
Having successfully trialled the
HAVmeter across a number of
large companies in a range of
industries including construction,
highways and automotive the
HAVmeter system is proving to be
very popular.
Demand for a system that
accurately and efficiently monitors
and protects employees has
resulted in the first production run
being almost entirely allocated by
customers placing pre-orders.
Key Features:
Continuous and clear display of
vibration dose to help reduce
vibration exposure
Designed for use on all tools,
including pneumatic, mains and
battery powered
Automatic HAV exposure record
for each employee
Quality long term data records
for employee exposure
