Casella USA announces the release of two new models in the
popular CEL-35X series of dBadge
noise dosimeters. The CEL-350 Lite is a simplified version of the current
CEL-350 and the CEL-352 Plus model adds a useful feature to calculate the
difference between the C and A weighted overall noise levels.These new
instruments answer the requests from users to have both a simpler instrument
that gives all the overall noise levels and noise dose values as the regular
CEL-350 while maintaining advantages of the small size and convenience of a
badge style instrument.
The CEL-350 Lite measures the overall noise levels
but does not store the 1 minute time history information that can be used to
show the noise level variations during the measurement run. The CEL-350 Lite
can always be upgraded to the regular CEL-350
dBadge by returning it to the service center in Amherst, NH
where the firmware upgrade is performed.
The CEL-350 Lite is an ideal way
to start off with the new badge style dosimeters while keeping the costs
down compared to conventional noise dosimeters that still use cable
microphones. Full kits with all the necessary accessories are available from
1 unit up to 12 dosimeters per kit.
To complement the need from some users
to have the LC-LA noise level difference calculated in the instrument
Casella USA have introduced the CEL-352 Plus
dBadge dosimeter. It features all of the capabilities of the
regular CEL-350 plus the additional calculation of the C weighted equivalent
continuous noise level. This means that the difference between the C and A
weighted overall noise levels can be seen in the LCD on the instrument at
the end of the run plus this value is downloaded to the Insight software
package for inclusion in the hard copy reports.
Both CEL-350 Lite and
regular CEL-350 dBadge dosimeters
can be upgraded to the new CEL-352 Plus version satisfying the needs of new
and existing customers. Again, this is done either at the point of sale for
new orders or by returning the existing noise dosimeter to the service
center in Amherst, NH.
