Sound Level Meter Data Logger with type 1 microphone - IC-NSRT_mk3
Unfortunately, the NSRT_mk3 has been discontinued and has been replaced by the NSRT_mk4.
The NSRT_mk3 is a sound level meter datalogger with a type 1 digital MEMS microphone, an accurate date/time clock, and a non-volatile 128 Mb recording memory with a fast USB download. Now featuring a dust-protected microphone.
-Specially designed for long-term outdoors applications.
-Sound level and acoustic dose measurement and recording.
-Monitoring of safe working conditions.

The Sound Level Meter Data Logger NSRT_mk3 is the third generation of Convergence Instrument's smart integrating sound-level meter/datalogger. It includes a type 1 digital MEMS microphone, an accurate date/time clock, and a non-volatile 128 Mb recording memory with a fast USB download. You can use the NSRT_mk3 for:
- Sound level and acoustic dose measurement and recording.
- Monitoring of safe working conditions.
- Activity detection and logging.
- Long-term measurement and recording of acoustic levels for environmental impact studies.
- Specially designed for long-term outdoors applications.
Running on battery, it can record sound pressure levels for a week. Connected to an external USB charger it can record for months. Its very small size allows it to be attached to or embedded within the monitored equipment.
Every Sound Level Meter Data Logger NSRT mk3 purchased is provided with an Individual Manufacturer's Certificate of Calibration from Convergence Instruments. This all-digital design includes the A, C and Z weighting curves. It is enclosed in a completely weatherproof casing which is designed for indoors and outdoors applications. Its highly sensitive Type 1 MEMS microphone has a noise floor of 30 dB-A, and is ultra stable with time and temperature variations. The software includes an oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer features, as well as email alarms.
Mounting Base and Tripod Adapter are included.

Features:
- Type I precision
- A, C and Z weighting curves.
- Integrating Sound-Level Meter, records L-max, L-min and Leq levels.
- Log interval adjustable from 125 ms (8 points per second) up to hours.
- Individual Manufacturer's Certificate of Calibration from Convergence Instrument provided with every instrument purchased.
- Digital very sensitive MEMS microphone (30 dBA typical noise floor)
- Completely sealed weatherproof enclosure designed for outdoors applications. Now includes an ePTFE membrane that seals the microphone against dust and water.
- All-digital design.
- Ultra-stable sensitivity (field recalibration is easily done, but seldom required)
- Very low sensitivity variation due to temperature changes
- Very low sensitivity to vibrations
- Software function calculates global Leq and/or dose, according to ISO and OSHA methods.
- Adjustable response time.
- Preprogrammed recording start date/time.
- Integrated oscilloscope function that can show the acoustic signal in real time.
- Integrated spectral analyzer function that can show the spectrum (or 3rd-octave bands) in real time.
- Can be used as a high-quality USB digital microphone
- Allows the observation of recorded levels while the recording is ongoing.
- Works standalone, or USB connected.
- Long life internal rechargeable battery that recharges from USB and most USB chargers.
- Can be field-calibrated.
- Observes and records 100% of the acoustic signal (no missed samples).
- Editable individual custom ID for easier instrument management.
- All settings are stored in non-volatile memory. So the instrument will regain full functionality from hard-reset or battery loss.
