Desktop & Wall-Mount Sound Level Monitoring with a 7-Inch Color Display and Certified Accuracy
The REED Instruments R8075-NIST is a professional Class 2 sound level meter built for continuous noise monitoring on a desk or wall. Its large 7" (178mm) high-resolution color TFT display shows real-time sound pressure levels clearly across a room, so supervisors and staff can read the decibel level at a glance.
Covering 30 to 130dB with ±1.4dB (Type 2 / IEC 61672 Class 2) accuracy, the R8075-NIST logs readings to 16GB of internal memory and triggers programmable high and low alarms when noise crosses your set limits. This model includes a Traceable Calibration Certificate, providing the verifiable documentation required for ISO quality systems and OSHA safety inspections.
Key Technical Advantages:
Large 7-Inch Color Display: A high-resolution 1024 x 600 color TFT screen shows sound pressure levels (30 to 130dB) in real time, with adjustable brightness and a digital bargraph for easy reading across a room.
Desktop or Wall-Mount Use: Runs on the included power adapter for ongoing desktop or wall-mounted monitoring, or on its 3000mAh rechargeable Li-ion battery for portable spot checks. Includes a wall-mount bracket and a built-in kick stand.
Programmable Alarm Set-points: User-adjustable high/low limit alarms with visual indicators notify staff immediately when noise thresholds are exceeded.
Data Logging & Analysis: Records to 16GB of internal memory with real-time clock and date stamp, at sampling intervals from 1 second to 24 hours for long-term noise surveys.
Certified Compliance: Ships with a NIST-Traceable Certificate with full data and uncertainties, meeting the accuracy standards required for professional and regulatory reporting.
Ideal Applications for the REED R8075-NIST
-
Manufacturing & Industrial Floors: Provide employees with a real-time visual indicator of when hearing protection is required under OSHA guidelines.
-
Hospitals & Healthcare: Monitor "Quiet Zones" in hallways and patient wings to ensure a restful environment and HIPAA compliance.
-
Schools & Libraries: Maintain optimal study environments by identifying noise spikes in cafeterias, gyms, or study halls.
-
Concert & Event Venues: Ensure decibel levels remain within local noise ordinance limits to avoid fines and protect patron hearing.
-
Server Rooms & Labs: Track the ambient noise generated by cooling systems and machinery to prevent environmental noise fatigue for staff.
