The NEW doseBadge⁵ Noise Dosimeter

for Occupational Noise Measurements

The doseBadge⁵ is the next generation doseBadge noise dosimeter from Cirrus.

It provides all of the unique features of the original doseBadge such as no controls, cables or displays with a range of new functions and features allowing it to be used for compliance with any occupational noise standard.

Bluetooth® communication to the dBLink App (for Android and iOS) or the doseBadge⁵ Wand allows the instrument to be configured and controlled without user intervention.

Measurements can be scheduled to start, pause and stop automatically with the timer functions allowing the doseBadge⁵ to be deployed quickly and easily.

Automatic calibration detection and USB download through the doseBadge⁵ Dock alongside the secure, robust internal microphone and tap sensor help ensure that your noise measurements are as effective as possible.
