The unit can be used for single phase or 3-phase supply. This period is also preset during installation. Once the level has been exceeded, the mains is not restored until after a reset period.

The preset level is adjusted during installation to meet the required limit. The mains supply to be used for the sound equipment is wired through contractors which are built into the unit. Green indicates level ok, amber that the threshold is being approached and red that the level has been exceeded. An indication of the sound level is given on the front panel by Green, Amber and Red LEDs. This unit continually monitors the sound level and will disconnect the mains supply when the preset level is exceeded. Then, for infrequent usage (eg weekends only), this may be the optimum solution for you. If you need sound level control to meet regulations and are on a limited budget. As part of the working relationship with these local authorities, we have helped to train their officers on our premises as required.

Authorisations and Trainingĭue our extensive knowledge and experience of installing sound limiters, we are the approved installer for many local authorities. We offer solutions based on equipment from three main manufactures, Sound, but can also offer equipment from other manufacturers if required. We can provide plans and estimates for your premises. The devices we fit are approved by local council/Government. We are fitting a range of devices into such areas as Licensed bars, Church halls, clubs, hotels etc. Some devices simply cut the power when the level is exceeded, whilst other devices can clamp the sound at a fixed level by reducing the mains voltage to the equipment or signal to the amplifier. The device is installed into the signal path, or the electrical supply to the equipment in the area and applies control to prohibit the sound from exceeding the preset level. Sound limiters are devices that are designed to monitor the sound in an area and limit the maximum sound level that can be generated by sound equipment such as used by discos or bands etc. In some instances sound limiting may be required by the Environmental Health Officer, who may define the levels at which sound may be limited and may wish to inspect any installation to ensure conformity.

Legislation in the areas of health and safety at work and noise pollution may mean that you should consider introducing devices to limit sound levels either in the workplace, or from public performances in your premises (particularly where an entertainment license applies.
