Acoustic conditions are essential to guarantee the correct conditions of comfort in any built space. In order to measure noise, we will use the PEAKTECH 8500 sound level meter as a measurement tool.
This compact equipment offers a lot of versatility when it comes to taking measurements indoors and outdoors, and to instantly know the sound conditions produced by different sources in a room, space or workplace.
Through the scenarios set out, observe how the acoustic behavior in a space varies depending on the source of noise, the position of the measuring equipment, and the frequencies of each of the sounds obtained.
From these measurements, it is possible to propose improvement measures in the field of an Energy Audit.
