24 hour monitoring

The SV212 stations offer an efficient and accurate way of monitoring noise and vibration, and McLaughlin & Harvey liked the robust, compact design. Advanced trigger and alarm functions alert when limits are exceeded, and data can be easily accessed and downloaded for inclusion in monthly reports.

In line with the hospital’s specifications, two of the SV212 stations are installed near live surgical theatres whilst the other is located externally. McLaughlin & Harvey found the stations easy to install and simple to operate following training from Svantek. 

As well as building and construction site monitoring, the SV212 is suitable for online vibration and noise measurement, acoustic map making and web-site population.

The SV212 kit consists of a SVAN958 four-channel sound and vibration analyser which is available with both PPV and weighted VDV measurement, with the latest standardised filters. The SVAN958 is installed within a waterproof case which has a rechargeable battery and controller.

Vibration monitoring is performed using a SV207B triaxial building vibration transducer with highly sensitive accelerometer (1 V/g) mounted in a robust, hermetically sealed metal base. A specially designed levelling system allows compensation of the ground level slope.

Svantek’s SV212 is also available with the option of an SV208 outdoor microphone kit for periodical monitoring. Protected by a SA277 windscreen, both the SV207B and SV208 are developed for outdoor use and can be connected to the SV212 monitoring station by waterproof connectors.

Additional features include GPRS modem and SvanPC++_RC remote communication software. This allows the user to access the monitoring system remotely for online data acquisition and easy wireless data transfer and download, as well as changing instrument settings.

Svantek also offers a SV205 weather monitoring module for measuring temperature, ambient pressure, humidity, and wind speed and direction distribution.

The SV212 is powered using an internal rechargeable battery or external DC power source with optional solar panel.
