Measuring people’s personal exposure to noise is now easier than ever before with a range of features and functions that will change the way you monitor noise in the workplace. The doseBadge5 is the result over 20 year’s development of the original doseBadge concept and maintains the unique features of the doseBadge including: •...
  • Page 7 doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook Quick settings can be applied through the NoiseTools software to enable the appropriate channels and settings for a number of pre-set configurations which makes deployment of the doseBadge5 quick and straight forward. In addition to the pre-set configurations, users can create custom settings to meet specific applications or as regulations change.
  • Page 8: Safety & Warnings

    doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook Safety & warnings This product is not approved for intrinsically safe operation and must not be used in hazardous areas or zones. The CR:120A doseBadge5, RC:120A Wand and CU:120A Dock contain no user serviceable parts. Do not open the product case as this will invalidate the product warranty and may cause damage to the instrument.

  • Page 13: Charging Your Dosebadge

    doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook Charging your doseBadge Your doseBadge(s) is/are charged using the CU:120A dock. The doseBadge instruments are intelligent and store information about the amount of charge that has been put into and taken out of the batteries. This allows the instrument to maintain optimum battery performance for as long as possible.
  • Page 14 doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook Charging should be carried out where the ambient temperature is between +15°C and +30°C (+59°F to +86°F). Charging at higher temperatures may increase the charge time required or may result in a failure to fully charge. Please note that the CU:120A dock must be connected to the mains power supply for data download to be possible.
  • Page 15: Connecting To Your Dosebadge

    doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook Connecting to your doseBadge Your doseBadge can be connected to a number of different controllers, which allow measurements to be started, paused and stopped, and also for your instrument to be configured.

  • Page 16: Configuring Your Dosebadge

    doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook Configuring your doseBadge Configuration overview Your doseBadge is an advanced noise measurement instrument and can provide up to 4 independent integrators, 2 independent Peak channels and up to 4 independent maximum SPL channels. In many applications, the configuration of your doseBadge will not change once it has been setup for the first time, but any of the configuration options can be adjusted to allow the instrument to meet any noise measurement standard or regulation.
  • Page 17: Configuring Via Noisetools

    doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook The doseBadge5 has no controls, cables or displays so the wearer cannot tamper with the scheduled measurements. The timers can be also enabled on specific days of the week (to exclude weekends for example). Up to three time periods can be programmed allowing for breaks to be automatically excluded (where standards require this).
  • Page 18 doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook If more than one instrument is connected, each can be configured in turn and the settings saved to the doseBadge5 units. For experienced users, the New Instrument Wizard can be skipped. 7.2.2 The dock view When your doseBadge5 is connected to a powered CU:120A dock and it is connected to the NoiseTools software via a USB cable, it will appear in the Instrument window.
  • Page 19 doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook 7.2.3 Person, Place & Project Each one of your doseBadges can be individually assigned to a person before measurements are made. Alternatively, measurements can be assigned either at the point of download into NoiseTools or afterwards when measurements are analysed.
  • Page 20 doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook The badge can also be assigned to a project. For example, if a set of measurements are being taken after new equipment has been installed, this can be referenced as a project. To pre-assign any of these functions, select the required name from the pull down list. If the required information is not available, a new person, place or project can be entered by selecting the icons to the side of the pull down lists.
  • Page 21 doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook 7.2.6.1 Time history rate Throughout a measurement, your doseBadge is logging the noise data at a specified rate. This information is used in the NoiseTools software to display the graphs of noise vs time. The sample period for data logging can be selected to be either 1 second or 1 minute, and this affects all data logging channels.
  • Page 22 doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook 7.2.7 Integrating Integrators are at the heart of any noise dosimeter and your doseBadge is no different. Up to four independent integrators can be run at any time and these can be chosen from a pre-set list, or customised as required.
  • Page 23 doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook 7.2.9 Wand interface The wand interface allows you to define what information is displayed your wand (if purchased) when a measurement is read from your doseBadge. The wand can display up to five pages of acoustic values in addition to calibration information and measurement summary information.
  • Page 24 doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook 7.2.10 Advanced The advanced tab allows for more detailed functions to be configured. 7.2.10.1 Calibration This setting allows the calibration level that the doseBadge5 is expecting to be adjusted to suit the acoustic calibrator being used. By default this is set to 114dB to suit the CR:518 acoustic calibrator.

    doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook Clearing the memory The memory of your doseBadge can be cleared using either NoiseTools (see page 21), the wand unit (see page 60 or dBLink (see page 67). Important note: please ensure that all measurement data from your instruments has been downloaded before clearing the memory.
  • Page 27: Calibrating Your Dosebadge

    NoiseTools, via the wand, or through dBLink. Setting the calibration level The calibration level of the doseBadge5 is nominally set to 114dB to match the Cirrus Research CR:518 acoustic calibrator. However, the level can be changed to suit other calibrators, such as the Cirrus Research CR:514 or CR:515, which provide a calibration level of 94dB.
  • Page 28: Connecting The Acoustic Calibrator

    doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook Connecting the acoustic calibrator Connect the acoustic calibrator to your doseBadge’s microphone and switch on the calibrator. Your doseBadge will automatically detect the acoustic signal from the calibrator and will start the calibration process. If the level provided by the acoustic calibrator is within the tolerances acceptable to your dosimeter, the instrument will calibrate.
  • Page 29: Post-Measurement Calibration

    doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook When calibration is complete, remove the acoustic calibrator and replace the windshield. To re-attach the windshield, press the assembly back onto the body of your doseBadge, taking care to ensure that it is securely located. Your doseBadge is now ready to use. Post-measurement calibration The doseBadge5 allows for a calibration to be carried out after a measurement has been completed.
  • Page 30: Attaching & Removing Your Dosebadge

    doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook Attaching & removing your doseBadge You should consult any local regulations or standards for specific information about the positioning of noise dosimeters, but it is recommend that the doseBadge5 is mounted close to the ear, typically within 10-15cm (4” to 6”). This will help to avoid reflections from the head, which can affect measurements.
