Industrial Noise Warning Sign

Noise Warning Displays

The SoundEar 3 Industrial has four main display components:

Green light - Usually used to indicate that the sign is monitoring, it can also be set to come on at a programmable sound level.
Yellow light - Usually used to warn that the sound levels are getting close to the limit, also individually programmable to a sound level.
Red light - Indicates that the noise is too high. This is also programmable with its own trigger level.
Digital display - Can be set to show the current sound level or the average sound level (Leq) over a given time. Otherwise it can be set to show the time or switched off altogether.

You can have two different time periods set, so you can have it operating with one configuration during the day and another during the night. It will switch between these settings at the times you select.

Example Displays

As each indictor (green, yellow, red) can be set to light up at different levels and can be set to be constant or to flash, there are many different configurations possible. Here are some examples.

Dual-Level Warning

High Impact Flash

Delayed Threshold

The most common configuration. The Green lights are on all the time to remind everybody that the noise levels are being monitored.

In this example:

75dB

80dB

For maximum impact when the threshold is passed, the sign remains dark and then flashes all three indicators at the same time,

In this example:

85dB Flash

Waits until the level has exceeded the threshold for a period of time before lighting up. It can also be set to stay lit for a minimum period.

In this example:

85dB for 3s

The sign won't light until the level is over 85dB for three seconds.

No matter what the display is showing, the SoundEar 3 Industrial is still monitoring and logging the sound levels. It could even be left showing just the time, thus avoiding people shouting or whistling to see it react. If this is all you need to do then have a look at the SE3-320, which costs less and has just the small digital display.
