Bruel & Kjaer Type 2239A - Integrating Sound Level Meter

Description

A simple, Class 1 sound level meter designed for environmental noise and occupational noise measurements. An LCD screen with a backlit display shows sound pressure levels and measurement results in a level bar. Up to 40 measurements can be stored, and if the measurement time is pre-set, storage is automatic.

Features

  • Conforms to all relevant international standards (Class 1 to IEC and ANSI)
  • Simultaneous RMS and peak measurements
  • Five languages installed: English, German, French, Spanish and Italian
  • One linear AC-Output (e.g. for making calibrated recordings)
  • Data download to PC via serial RS 232 interface
  • All measurements can be downloaded for further analysis with software: Noise Explorer Type 7815, Evaluator Type 7820 and Protector Type 7825
