Noise Dosimeter and Hand-Held Noise Meter Combinations

Use a dosimeter when the worker is moving around continuously, or between many different locations. A dosimeter is also a better option when the worker is in a location that makes the use of a hand-held meter difficult, such as confined spaces or the cab on moving machinery. Finally, a dosimeter can take much less time to use as you do not have to follow the worker around while making measurements. This is particularly important when monitoring the noise exposure of large numbers of workers.

Use a sound level meter to make quick and accurate spot-checks of the noise levels. A hand-held meter is ideal when people are only working at a few fixed locations - you measure at each and calculate the exposure as a Time Weighted Average. When the noise levels are particularly high a more advanced meter should be used to assess the level at the ear when wearing hearing protectors. The greatest benefit when using a sound level meter rather than a dosemeter is that you are present when the noise occurs, so you can assess if the sound levels are representative of normal operations.
