NoisePen Dosemeter – Personal Sound Exposure Meter
The NoisePen Personal Sound Exposure Meter has no cables, displays or controls, and needs no separate charger or reader unit, making it simple to use and the perfect solution for monitoring Noise at Work over a whole working day or week especially for shift workers, lone workers, confined-space workers and people working in remote areas. The NoisePen noise dosemeter is fully compliant with noise at work health and safety measurement standards around the world.
This great value, self-contained personal noise dosemeter can capture, record and calculate noise exposure data for a period of time over 30 hours. The NoisePen measures all the noise parameters you need for legally compliant occupational noise monitoring. This PSEM is a self-contained noise monitor ideally suited for workers ‘on the go’; it has no cables, displays or controls and several different mounting options are available.
The NoisePen does not require an additional Charger or Reader Unit – all interactions are done via USB to a PC and our outstanding powerful analysis and reporting software, Pulsar AnalyzerPlus:
All noise measurement programming and key functions such as start-stop, set up and configuration of the device, download, view and store measurements are performed before or on completion of field measurements.
Calibration of the NoisePen is also undertaken before taking a measurement with an acoustic calibrator and verified and logged via the software. The same process is carried out on return of the unit to your office.
Schedule a timed measurement at a date and time of your choice. You can also repeat a selected measurement pattern over a period of 7 days without having to reset the NoisePen.
Get a full map of Time History information to help you determine when key noise problems occur during a worker’s day.
View all the essential data you need such LAeq, LEP,d, % Dose and TWA for compliance with occupational noise regulations
The additional ‘C’ frequency weighted peak Time History allows you to fully assess risks from impulsive noise in the workplace.

3 reviews for NoisePen Dosemeter – Personal Sound Exposure Meter
Rated 5 out of 5
Peter Tignini –
As a noise consultant, I often have to assess the noise exposure of employees in factories and industrial sites. Sometimes this is over just one shift but I also need to do it over a working week for some industries. The NoisePen is great for this because it measures noise dose for a whole week without the need to download measurements and reset in between – this makes things more efficient for me as I can leave the noispen with an operator on a monday for example and pick up on a friday. I like it too because the noisepen itself is it – there’s no additional chargers or readers needed. All in all a real gem of a product that makes my job a heck of a lot easier.

We bought two NoisePen units to check how much noise our employees had on our construction sites. We wanted something that was dead easy to use but our workers couldn’t mess about with. Because of the kinds of work we do we can’t have cables or anything hanging about so these are great. We were shown how to use the software and just plug the NoisePen into a laptop on site. HSE inspector was impressed too.

I have previously had a different make of noise meter and dosimeter that was ancient. Receiving the Pulsar model has brought me into the 21st century!
I have had no difficulty transitioning; the kit is easy to use and self-explanatory. Any problems I have had have been dealt with really well by customer services who have been friendly and helpful.
