Triplett SLM400 Sound Level Meter with NIST Traceability – Standard

Description

Product Overview

The Triplett SLM400 is a compact, handheld sound level meter designed for professional noise monitoring. Measuring total noise exposure (%dose) over an 8‑hour workday, it complies with OSHA, MSHS, DOD, ACGIH, ISO85 and ISO90 standards. The device features a 4.4 x 2.6 x 1.3 in chassis, weighs only 6.08 oz, and offers both standard and NIST‑traceable calibration options. User‑programmable SPL and peak alarms, multiple weighting filters (A, C, Z) and time constants (Fast, Slow, Impulse, Peak) provide flexible measurement setups. Data can be logged up to 1 000 k readings and transferred via USB for detailed analysis.

Usage

Ideal for industrial plants, construction sites, laboratories and field surveys, the SLM400 helps safety officers quickly assess noise hazards and determine required control measures. Its portable design allows easy carry‑on for on‑site inspections, while the built‑in datalogger captures continuous exposure data for later reporting. Whether you are conducting OSHA compliance checks or evaluating acoustic environments for equipment installation, the SLM400 delivers reliable results.
