CVK has introduced a waterresistant
version of its HealthVib
HAV vibration system. Available from
Campbell Associates, the vibration
transducer is built into the user’s
safety glove for hand arm vibration
assessments. It takes measurements
in compliance with the requirements
of ISO 5349, quickly and simply. A
water resistant casing means it can
be used in moist environments to
deliver accurate results.

The user puts his/her hands in the
gloves and presses the wireless
button to connect both hands to a
wireless logging device. The X,Y and
Z direction data is recorded from
both hands and collected on the
logging device. Batteries and
memory have capacity to run for
more than one shift. The logger is
connected to a PC for post processing
and reporting and assessing exposure.

The HealthVib WBV human
vibration dosimeter measures whole
body vibrations in three directions. It
measures and analyses WBV on
drivers sitting as required by ISO
2631-1 and EU directive 2002/44/EG.
