Watch

Current

Outdoor noise and vibration monitoring station for construction, mining and industrial sites. A three-channel controller takes up to three Smart Sensors: the Class 1 Smart Acoustic Sensor (noise, blast overpressure and infrasound), a triaxial geophone or MEMS vibration sensor, and a weather sensor. Data is logged locally and sent over 4G/LTE to the Soft dB Web Platform.

Replaced the NoiseWatch. Specifications verified on .
