Most British Standards call for a Class 1, but occupational noise measurements only require Class 2. The tolerance in each frequency is much tighter on Class 1 than on a Class 2 meter. This is has higher precision than Class 2 and it is often used for sound level measurements of environmental noise and for laboratory applications, although you can use it for most other acoustic measurement applications such as industrial and construction noise assessments. These are meters that measure the LAeq (Equivalent Continuous Sound Level, also referred to as Leq) LAeq is the preferred way of measuring varying sound level over time, the resulting measurement is a single decibel value which is used in occupational noise assessments to determine the noise levels of an activity over time, or the noise levels a person (or persons) are exposed to. For most Health and Safety applications, for example, including Noise Risk Assessments in the workplace, an integrating Class 2 meter is all that is required. The Noise at Work Regulations state that an integrating sound level meter (or SLM) is required for occupational noise assessments. The Pulsar Nova range can also be used with an all-weather outdoor measurement kit that provides protection for the meter and its microphone from the elements and dust, allowing sound intensity measurements to be made over long periods in a variety of environments. They come with valid calibration certificates and a warranty.
