2. Производ је готовview

The TopTes TS-501B Sound Level Meter and TS-710 Light Meter are a combined solution for environmental assessment. The TS-501B measures sound levels, while the TS-710 measures light intensity, ambient temperature, and humidity. Both devices feature a 2.25-inch backlit LCD screen for clear readings and user-friendly functions.

2.1 TS-501B Sound Level Meter

The TS-501B is equipped with a 1/2 inch electric condenser microphone for precise sound measurement. It offers A/C weighting options to analyze sound based on human ear perception (A-weighting) or for general noise analysis (C-weighting). The measurement range is 30 to 130 dB.
