Pulsar Instruments (UK), manufacturer of noise measurement products, has launched a First Aid Noise at Work monitoring kit, comprising everything you need to monitor noise levels quickly, and to enable employers to take the first steps towards compliance with Noise at Work Regulations (2005).

With the Pulsar First Aid Noise at Work monitoring kit, even a safety professional with only basic training can undertake a noise assessment at any time and interpret the data measurements to locate an offending piece of equipment or practice that is causing harm to the hearing of personnel or site visitors. 

With the number of claims for noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) on the up, it is paramount for employers to act quickly against noise to prevent any potential damage to their business.

The kit comprises of the Pulsar Nova Model 44 latest professional sound level meter, a handheld noise monitoring device, and its data logging software - Pulsar AnalyzerPlus. This outstanding software is preconfigured to transform the measured data into informative, quick and easy to read reports. The kit also includes the popular PulsarSafeEar noise-activated warning sign which can be mounted on a wall and flashes a warning message to staff and visitors alike when noise exceeds pre-set levels.

In addition to the instrumentation, this kit comes complete with a place on a Noise Awareness course delivered by Pulsar Instruments at one of the three venues on offer in the UK.

The Pulsar First Aid noise at work kit has been put together specifically for the demanding requirements of noisy industries in the UK at a reduced price, allowing a saving of £500 on normal prices.

It is well suited for use in a wide range of applications including manufacturing, engineering, warehousing, catering and education just to name a few.
