Building Acoustics using the Nor 118 +
The Nor 118 + Real Time Sound Analyser includes an internal noise generator and the circuits to measure the room noise levels and calculate the reverberation times - ideal for survey work. To use your own amplifier/speaker system, just add a Nor 4514 noise output cable and a tapping machine if required.

Alternatively we supply building acoustics kits at special rates - the analyser comes at half price

Nor 118 Building Acoustics Airborne Kit - includes £ 39 a day  *
1 x Nor 118 + Enhanced Real Time Analyser - with options 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 16 and 17
1 x Nor 250Hemi-dodecahedron speaker - 200 W, 120 dB
1 x Nor 260Power Amplifier
1 x Nor 4514 Cable - noise output - Nor 118 to BNC
1 x GA 80G1-00 Meter stand 0.4 - 1.45 m high


Nor 118 Building Acoustics Airborne + Impact Kit - includes £ 54 a day  *
1 x Nor 118 + Building Acoustics Airborne Kit - as above
1 x B&K 3207 Tapping Machine

These are entry level systems - you are of course welcome to add a calibrator, additional cables etc., - see the list above

For fully automated systems see the B&K 2260D or the Norsonic 121 systems.


Nor 118 + Sound Power Measurements £ 32 a day  *
All the Gracey & Associates Nor 118 + precision sound analysers are fitted with the.
sound power option
reverberation time option

and are therefore suitable for measurements of the following parameters
Engineering and Survey measurements of the LwA - A-weighted sound power levels
Sound power measurements according to BS 4196, BS EN ISO 3746
CE-marking of new products

Features
Up to 40 microphone positions.
Selection of 6 hemispherical or parallel-piped surfaces.
Correction for background noise and for the acoustic environment.
Frequency analysis to establish flat or A-weighted spectrum.
Checks for possible impulsive noise and the directivity.
Also measures the C-weighted Lpeak

A class 1 calibrator is also recommended.




Multi-spectrum Measurement using the Nor 118 +
The multi-spectrum option allows even more sophisticated measurements. This upgrade of the time profile permits complete spectra to be measured as a function of time - not just broadband. You may then track a given frequency band as a function of time or inspect the spectrum at a given moment in time. You can even record the 1/3-octave statistics for each period of time within an overall measurements - providing full information for enhanced environmental noise surveys

Nor 118 multispectra
