Noise & Vibration

Unwanted noise and vibration can be a serious problem.

Whether you are required by your local authority to monitor noise and vibrations, or have opted to because of complaints, to safeguard employees or to ensure noise levels are recorded and managed, Turnkey can offer accurate measuring instrumentation to help.

Some noise is unavoidable, but increasingly organisations are expected to manage their noise levels and demonstrate that they are taking action to minimise noise which could be a nuisance to local residents, other business or have a negative impact on the environment.

Our noise monitoring equipment is easy to use, measures accurately and can be used in a wide range of scenarios for measuring, analysis and reporting.

Some typical uses of our noise and vibration monitoring equipment include:

  • Construction sites
  • Quarries
  • Industrial sites, such as waste sorting sites
  • Oil and gas plants
  • Road and site traffic
  • Airports
  • Railways
  • Underground trains
  • Outdoor events, such as concerts, festivals and sporting events
  • Motorsports

Unacceptable noise levels can have an impact on public health and the environment. The impact can range from sleep disruption and speech interference to reduced productivity and hearing loss.

People are now more aware of the impact of noise, and controlling noise levels in inner cities and built-up areas is increasingly important.

Our noise monitoring equipment measures commonly used noise parameters such as LAeq, LAmax, LA10, LA90. Our noise monitor can also be used with our Osiris or Topas air pollution monitors to provide a complete monitoring solution. Where there is no power at the site, it can be used off-grid with our solar and wind power system and with external leisure batteries.
