Testo® 816-1 - Sound level meter

The testo 816-1 sound level meter with its top equipment meets all requirements for standard-compliant sound level measurement in accordance with IEC 61672-1 Class 2 and ANSI S1.4 Type 2, making it ideal for noise measurement in workplaces and public places or in industry and manufacturing. Compared to the testo 816 sound level meter, the testo 816-1 also has an internal data logger for 31 000 measured values and is also supplied with PC software. The sound level meter for professionals: measure, store, evaluate Just like the testo 816 sound level meter, you also receive the testo 816-1 in a practical carrying case and can benefit from the many technical features for professional noise measurement relating to occupational health and safety and immission control: You can change the measurement time - depending on your requirements - from Slow (measurement once per second) to Fast (measurement every 125 milliseconds). You can also choose between two frequency weightings: Characteristic A corresponds to the sound pressure perception of the human ear, while characteristic C evaluates the low-frequency components of a sound. In addition, you can recalibrate the testo 816-1 sound level meter directly on site using the optionally available sound calibrator and the screwdriver supplied.

The testo 816-1 sound level meter does even more: it has an internal data logger and can store up to 31 000 measured values directly in the instrument. With the supplied USB connection cable, you can easily transfer the measurement data to a PC. The PC software, which is also included in the scope of delivery, supports you in data management and evaluation. On top of that, the software also enables long-term measurements, where the current measurement data can be tracked directly on the PC. For this purpose, the sound level meter must be connected to the PC.
