NOISESOURCE

According to the regulations, both a unidirectional noise source (sound is sent in one main direction) and an omnidirectional source (sound is propagated in all directions) can be used. 01dB then offers a comprehensive range consisting of 3 noise sources suitable for each requirement:
- Stand-alone unidirectional source GDB-S
- Stand-alone omnidirectional source LS01
- Omnidirectional source LS02
Unidirectional Noise Source GDB-S
GDB-S is a compact unidirectional noise source including the following main elements:
- a power amplifier
- a pink noise generator
- a speaker
Hosted in a robust chassis, GDB-S is powered up by batteries that provide the user with 10 hours of continuous operating time. The user can use the wireless remote control provided in order to start and stop the source. The GDB-S source is fully integrated into the 01dB product range dedicated to building acoustics. Using the SWT001 box, the SOLO Black Edition sound level meter can indeed automatically start and stop the source during the measurement of reverberation time or acoustic insulation against airborne noise. Using software dBSOLO-B installed on a PC tablet, the operator can control both sound level meter SOLO and source GDB-S.
Omnidirectional Sources LS01/LS02

- a power amplifier
- a noise generator
Robust, compact and easy to implement, both sources LS01/LS02 can be driven using a remote control. In addition to starting and stopping the sources, the user can control:
- the volume level by +/-2 dB steps or with a known gain (0 dB, -8 dB, -30 dB…).
- the type of noise: pink, white, swept sine according to different frequency ranges
The LS01 source is delivered with a battery pack that provides more than 1 hour of operating time.
