    SC-101

    The SC101 is more than just a noise measuring instrument as it not only carries out the measurements, but also the checks and calculations required by the standards, to get the final result, in situ.

    It is the first integrating sound level meter with measurement protocols which simplifies the process of obtaining results to the maximum. It guides the user, step by step through the measurement process.

    The SC101 adapts to the needs of each user as it enables the measurement protocol to be chosen for the following applications: MOTOR VEHICLES, LEISURE and COMMUNITY, RISKS AT WORK, MACHINERY (PRESSURE), MACHINERY (POWER) OR SOUND LEVEL METER (TRADITIONAL). The user simply follows the procedure indicated by the SC101, to obtain the final result.

    Measuring noise has never been so easy!
