Noise Watch Monitoring Station
Soft dB Monitoring Services
Noise Watch Monitoring Station Is Compact,
Rugged and Packed with Powerful Features
Professional Grade Acoustical Measurements:
• Complies to IEC 61672/ANSI S1.4 Class 1
• Frequency Range: 20 Hz – 16 kHz
Simultaneous Measurement and Recording of:
• Leq, Lmax, Lmin, Lpeak, and SEL in A, C, and Z weightings
• 7 Percentiles (LN%) for selected weighting (A, C or Z)
• 31.5 Hz to 8 kHz Octave Band Spectrum
• 400 lines FFT Spectrum
Embedded Power Solution:
• Large battery providing 5-days run-time
• Optional solar kit providing unlimited power
Impressive Data Storage Capacity:
• All parameters recorded (Leq, Lmax, Lmin, Lpeak, SEL, LN%, 1/1 Oct. and FFT)
• Memory buffer holding more than 135 000 records (without FFT, 16 000 records with FFT)
• Auto-store period from 1s to 1h, aligned on clock
Compatible with Soft dB Monitoring Solution:
• Embedded 4G LTE module for data transfer, status, mail and SMS alerts
• Embedded GPS for accurate positioning and time synchronisation

Simple Deployment
Management Software
The Noise Watch Utility Software is a simple tool to setup the Noise Watch Station.
• Start/Stop the measurement;
• Change measurement setup (Input Range, Duration, FFT Span, etc.);
• Manage Web Service parameters (Records upload, Status upload, etc.);
• Manage records buffer (load records, clear buffer, etc.);
• View 4G modules status;
• View GPS module status;
• View battery status;
• View embedded calibration certificate.
Web-Based Monitoring Platform
Soft dB Monitoring Platform is a self-service web application that brings significant value to both short and long-term
unattended noise measurement campaigns:
• Manage all your monitoring stations (registration, GPS coordinates, Battery status, etc.);
• Set alerts for monitoring stations warnings (low battery, offline, etc.);
• Manage exceedance alerts (SMS an emails);
• Real-time records uploads;
• Secure data hosting;
• Manage period durations (10m, 1h, etc.);
• Assign Monitoring stations to measurement sites;
• Create client access pages for specific sites.
