Making Lite of noise measurement
Brüel
& Kjær Sound & Vibration has released a lighter, simpler
version of the popular PULSETM Multi-Analyser. Sound and vibration
measurements are used extensively in the automotive, aerospace and consumer
goods industries to develop quieter products both in response to customer
requirements and also to meet increasing legal directives on noise emissions.
PULSE Lite's strength
is its simplicity and it offers genuine ease of use. It is especially
suitable for those applications where the full PULSE system capabilities
are not required. The system enables instant measurement using pre-set
configurations. Other measurement settings can be easily set up using
the Setup and Display menus. Measurements can be made in the field or
the laboratory and data can be processed at any location, with a PC connected
to PULSE Lite. A key advantage of the system is that it can be upgraded
to a more powerful PULSE solution at any time if measurement needs become
more complex. This means that the existing hardware does not become obsolete,
but forms part of the new system.
