Features & Applications:

The Casella 450.B2 Sound Level Meter Kit offers the power of digital signal processing (DSP) technology in a small lightweight unit. The instrument provides all the features of a broadband meter while simultaneously offering the ability to measure noise levels in whole or third octave bands across a wide range of frequencies that cover the whole audible range.

The major benefit of the Sound Level Meter Kit is the ease with which it can make full range noise measurements in difficult situations such as those encountered with transient sources. These can include impacts, pass-by testing of vehicles, flyover tests for aircraft, shooting ranges and other similar noise difficult to measure sources. The ultra wide dynamic range of 140 dB means that it is not necessary to worry about selecting the right range as the meter is always on the right range. Noise parameters such as the max, min, average, peak etc. can be enabled or disabled depending upon the exact requirements of the task in hand. Data log the results from 10 msec to 30 minutes to collect history of the level changes.
