SKC NoiseCHEK Gains ANZEx Certification for Hazardous Use
Air-Met Scientific is pleased to announce that the SKC NoiseCHEK personal noise dosimeter has achieved ANZEx certification, enabling safe deployment in hazardous environments across Australia and New Zealand.
This milestone gives safety professionals a compliant way to monitor worker noise exposure in explosive atmospheres, without compromising safety or operational efficiency.
Expanding Safe Air Sampling and Monitoring Capabilities
Many industries, including mining, oil and gas, manufacturing, and utilities, face the ongoing challenge of monitoring occupational noise exposure in environments where explosive gases or combustible dust may be present. The ANZEx-certified NoiseCHEK removes these limitations.
Compact and wearable, the SKC NoiseCHEK delivers accurate, real-time personal noise exposure data and can now be deployed confidently across both standard and hazardous zones.
This enables organisations to:
Capture complete and accurate exposure data across sites
Maintain compliance with Australian and New Zealand safety standards
Eliminate gaps caused by restricted monitoring areas
Strengthen overall worker health and safety programs
What ANZEx Certification Mean For You
ANZEx certification is a recognised scheme across Australia and New Zealand that ensures electrical equipment is safe for use in explosive atmospheres. Products that achieve this certification have undergone rigorous testing and evaluation to confirm they will not ignite surrounding hazardous environments under specific conditions.
For safety professionals, this translates into something far more practical: the ability to monitor noise exposure in underground coal mines and the oil and gas market in Australia, without workarounds, exclusions, or compliance concerns.
Andrew Marom, Sales Director at Air-Met Scientific, explained: “This is an exciting step forward for the SKC team and the NoiseCHEK Dosimeter. The certification enables NoiseCHEK users to confidently capture complete, reliable data across their entire operation without compromising safety in a single device.”
Strengthen Your Occupational Noise Monitoring Strategy
As expectations around workplace safety continue to evolve, having complete and accurate exposure data is no longer optional, it is essential.
The ANZEx-certified SKC NoiseCHEK allows you to take a more proactive, consistent approach to managing noise risks, even in the most challenging environments.
Whether you are looking to upgrade your current noise monitoring program or address gaps in hazardous areas, Air-Met Scientific can support you with expert advice and tailored solutions.
