Description
Crown Sound Meter CT44097
When assessing workplace noise compliance, monitoring occupational health and safety standards, conducting environmental noise audits, or testing acoustic dampening where sound levels directly impact worker health and regulatory compliance, having a precise and reliable measuring tool is essential. The Crown Digital Sound Level Meter (Model: CT44097) is engineered specifically to meet the rigorous demands of professional technicians, safety inspectors, and facility maintenance teams, combining advanced acoustic sensor technology with rugged field durability.
At the core of the CT44097 is a precision electret condenser microphone designed to capture sound pressure levels accurately across a broad dynamic range, supporting both A-weighting (simulating the human ear’s response) and C-weighting (for high-level machinery noise). Designed for operational efficiency in diverse environments, the instrument features a clear backlit digital display for easy reading, fast and slow time-weighting selection for transient or steady-state noises, peak/max hold capabilities, and a rugged, ergonomic housing designed for comfortable single-handed operation. Housed in a durable protective casing, the Crown CT44097 provides professional acoustic validation wherever measurement accuracy matters most.
Key Features & Specifications:
-
Precision Condenser Microphone: Captures sound pressure levels accurately across wide decibel ranges with high fidelity.
-
A & C Frequency Weighting: Offers switchable weighting curves to evaluate general environmental noise (A-weighting) versus high-intensity mechanical sound (C-weighting).
-
Fast & Slow Time Weighting: Features adjustable response times to capture fluctuating noise spikes or average steady-state sound levels.
-
Max Hold & Data Hold: Convenient recording functions to freeze current measurements or capture maximum decibel peaks.
-
Clear Backlit Digital Display: Outfitted with an easy-to-read LCD screen ensuring excellent visibility across dim or brightly lit environments.
