Eckel Noise Control Technologies
From product
testing to research laboratory, Eckel noise control has played an
integral role in technological advances in science, industry and
commerce. Today, engineers and scientists utilise Eckel anechoic
chambers and noise control products to improve the technology that
affects our lives and the environment for our future.
Eckel supply, design and
install hemi (semi) and anechoic chambers. Anechoic chamber are
used in the research and development of products or conformation
of noise emitted to comply with new legislation. Eckel chambers
can be fitted with either metallic, fibreglass, foam, e-element or
compact anechoic wedges/absorbers.
Further applications offered include Audiology Rooms and Suites,
applicable for all manner of specific requirements such as brain
stem audiometry, hearing aid evaluation, clinical and research applications.
Another area we support is double acting, shock absorbing traffic
doors of exceptional durability, reliability, and economy. Ideal
for manufacturing, retail, and catering environments

School Acoustics - Building Bulletin
93 or BB93 |
|

July
1st 2003 has now come and gone, and with it came sweeping
changes to how we must now design and construct schools. The
implications do not stop with BB93 being mandatory. Many items
of research have shown that acoustic conditions within schools
can have a profound impact on pupil's learning and staff performance.
In turn, the requirements for BB93 are more onerous than in
BB87, to assist in the Integration of those pupils with Special
Educational Needs into mainstream schools, and to generally
improve standards. To assist Schools and the education establishment,
Eckel is able to offer the full service package - from design
and survey services, to the design, manufacture and installation
of the noise control products to solve any non compliance
due to noise. Eckel can also provide any of the services individually
as well as instrumentation sales to allow your own personnel
to conduct their own investigations. read more information

An
updated directive was formally adopted in November 2002 which
will allow members of the European Union three years to bring
in the new Directive as Legislation. When the new regulations
are introduced in 2005, they will repeal any existing Noise
at Work Regulations.
A quick summary of the changes are:
The 1st and 2nd Action Levels will be reduced by 5dB(A) to 80dB(A)
and 85dB(A) respectively. The
Peak Action Level of 140dB(C) will be replaced with 1st and
2nd Peak Action Levels of 135dB(C) and 137dB(C) Peak respectively.
A Maximum Exposure Level Limit of 87dB(A) and 140dB(C) Peak
at the ear will be introduced which includes any hearing protection.
