Wearable Noise Dosimeters for Accurate Personal Sound Exposure
Monitor and log individual noise exposure with compact, cloud-connected dosimeters designed for industrial and occupational use.
Personal Noise Exposure Monitoring for Safer Workplaces
Noise dosimeters are compact, wearable instruments designed to measure an individual’s cumulative noise exposure over time. These devices are critical in occupational health and safety programs, enabling compliance with government noise regulations and helping protect workers from hearing damage. Deployed across industries ranging from manufacturing and construction to transportation and public services, noise dosimeters deliver time-weighted average (TWA) and peak sound level data with high accuracy.
Noise Vibration Monitoring offers a full suite of advanced noise dosimetry solutions for B2B clients across North America. With options for real-time tracking, wireless connectivity, and seamless cloud integration, our systems are designed for flexibility, ease of use, and precise data acquisition. Whether you need standalone devices or networked deployments, our noise dosimeters support a smarter, safer approach to monitoring occupational noise environments.

Case Studies
United States – Steel Manufacturing Plant Compliance Program
A Pennsylvania-based steel manufacturer deployed over 100 personal noise dosimeters from Noise Vibration Monitoring across multiple shifts. With real-time exposure tracking and cloud reporting, the company successfully identified peak exposure points in its casting and forging departments. They implemented acoustic barriers and reduced average daily exposure by 18%, achieving full OSHA compliance within six months.
United States – Fire Department Worker Safety
A municipal fire department in Texas implemented wearable dosimeters to monitor personnel during active duty and training exercises. The data revealed consistent exceedance of safe levels during siren and equipment use. Based on the results, the department adopted high-attenuation gear and altered training protocols, significantly lowering long-term hearing risk.
Canada – Urban Transit System Operator Assessment
A transit authority in Ontario used our dosimeters during a pilot study to evaluate driver and mechanic noise exposure. The results supported changes in cabin soundproofing and maintenance scheduling. Noise Vibration Monitoring’s cloud-based dashboard provided accessible records for future safety audits and CSA regulatory reviews.
