Hearing protection assessments
07 June 2016
The new Castle dBAir sound meter has an entire hearing protection database built into it, making it possible to assess the hearing protection someone is wearing on-the-spot or, if you want to do it afterwards, the same database is available on Castle’s ‘Cloud’ software that takes data straight from the dBAir via the on-board Wi-Fi.

Using the hearing protection database, which comes as standard in the dBAir Safety, the user will instantly be shown how much protection an operator can expect when using any particular hearing protection. With two ways of comparing ear defenders, you are in complete control; it is possible to pick a hearing protector model and see how it performs, or you can list all the models in order of their protected levels – then you have a list of potential protectors for that task.
When measurements are completed, they’re automatically sent to the web hosted Castle Cloud software, where users will be shown a selection of suitable hearing protection for each operator.
The Castle Cloud provides quick, safe and comprehensive data-management direct from the instrument allowing for easy sharing of data and the security of automatic back-up.
Castle is currently offering free demonstrations to show safety managers the benefits of the hearing protection database, and how instant hearing protection assessments can make their jobs much easier.
