then, measurements could be conducted over long periods of time and the instrument was worn by personnel
under normal work conditions.
Finally, organizations developed standards to regulate personal noise exposure. International standards are
specified by health and safety regulations such as the European Union Parliament and Council Directive
2003/10/EC of February 6, 2003 on minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of
workers to the risks arising from physical agents (noise) or International Electrotechnical Commission
IEC 61252 guidelines. The EU directive links to the ISO 9612:2009 Acoustics

Determination of occupational
noise exposure
–
Engineering method.
In the United States, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 29 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) 1910 General Industry Regulations: Standard No. 1910.95 Occupational noise exposure,
the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA), and the American Conference of Governmental Industrial
Hygienists (ACGIH) have created slightly different regulations and limitations on tolerable noise exposure.
Noise requirements are to ensure that the hazards associated with the exposure of workers to noise are
eliminated or properly controlled.

Additionally, at present dosimeters should meet relevant accuracy and performance requirements defined by:
- IEC 61252 Personal Sound Exposure Meters
- ANSI S1.25 Personal Noise Dosimeters

The SV 104BIS noise dosimeter is extremely well suited to ISO, OSHA, ACGIH, MSHA, NIOSH, CFR 1910.95,
HSE L108 workplace noise measurements in noise exposure assessments. NIHL: Noise Induced Hearing
Loss remains noticeably significant occupational disease It is notably severe in the mining, construction,
oil &gas industry but also in a wide variety of manufacturing sectors and other commercial operations. The
dosimeter comes with pre-defined setups that suit different measurement requirements and offer versatile
possibilities to be specifically configured by the user for special requirements if needed:
- measurement and control of the industrial noise
- work site assessments
- sites/plants/facilities survey monitoring systems
- hearing conservation compliance, noise induced hearing loss (NIHL)
- transportation noise studies
- personal noise verifications
- peak dosimeter for example in military applications.
One of the most desirable SV 104BIS feature is the unique data logging function that stores significant number
of noise parameters at regular intervals and superimposed random vibration shock or audio events during
a measurement run.
