doseBadge5 Personal Noise Dosimeter
Noise DosimetersThe advanced doseBadge5 personal noise dosimeter offers an enhanced analysis of noise levels and noise frequencies for the ultimate protection against noise in the workplace. Ideal for noise-at-work assessments, industrial hygiene and for protecting workers from excessive noise.
- Complies with IEC and ANSI Personal Sound Exposure Meter Standards
- LAeq, LCpeak and exposure parameters
- 1:1 Octave noise filter measurement for hearing protection calculations
- Four integrator channels allow you to meet any occupational noise measurement standard or regulation worldwide
- Associated dBLink app for wireless Bluetooth operation, configuration, and data review
- Scheduled measurement timers that reduce the potential for user error
The doseBadge5 Personal Noise Dosimeter
Simple, effective & compliant noise exposure measurements
The Advanced doseBadge5 Personal Noise dosimeter is a high-performance wireless noise dosimeter that allows you to make compliant occupational noise exposure measurements, put into place effective control measures, and ensure that workers are not exposed to noise levels that will put their hearing at risk.
Personal Noise dosimeter is simple to use and allows you to gather robust, reliable information for use in the assessment of occupational noise exposure. There are no cables, controls, or displays on the individual badges so they remain tamper-proof.
In addition to the four independent channels or integrators (which you can configure to meet any combination of Regulations, Standards or Guidelines worldwide), the doseBadge5 Personal Noise dosimeter also provides real-time octave band analysis over the entire measurement and when combined with our license-free NoiseTools software, allows individual noise sources to be identified, making the selection of hearing protection, quicker, simpler and more effective.
Real-time octave band analysis
Throughout a measurement, the doseBadge5 Personal Noise dosimeter will measure the noise levels in octave bands from 63Hz to 8kHz, giving you detailed information about the frequency content of the noise.
This allows you to accurately detemine the levels of hearing protection needed based not only on noise levels (dB(A)), but also based on the dominant frequency of the noise.
You can download this information into the NoiseTools software for analysis and to create compliant noise exposure reports. NoiseTools also includes a comprehensive list of hearing protectors and will recommend the best ones to you based on your measurements.
Time history
Not only does the doseBadge5 noise dosimeter give the overall data (unweighted Leq) for each octave band, it also logs and stores a time history (or noise profile) for each band throughout the entire measurement.
This feature allows you to identify specific noise sources within a measurement, mark and annotate them, and use the hearing defender selector within NoiseTools to choose the correct level of hearing protection.
In summary with the doseBadge5 noise dosimeter, you can:
dBLink App
The free dBLink App supports the doseBadge⁵ Personal Noise Dosimeters and allows you to control and configure your measurements wirelessly. You can also view your measurement data live (e.g. mid-shift readings) and display all of your stored measurements.

The doseBadge5 is used to monitor and record individual worker noise exposure during a shift, helping businesses comply with workplace noise regulations.
The doseBadge5 offers upgraded features such as Bluetooth connectivity, multiple measurement channels, real-time noise analysis to 1 second, scheduled start and stop times and smartphone control via the dBLink app.
Yes, it complies with UK Control of Noise at Work Regulations and international standards such as ISO 9612 and ANSI S1.25.
Yes, the doseBadge5 can be controlled and monitored via the dBLink mobile app, allowing for real-time checks and wireless setup.
It can measure multiple channels simultaneously, including LAeq, LCPeak, and dose %, giving a complete profile of personal noise exposure.
Data is transferred via USB and analysed using the Cirrus NoiseTools software for detailed reports and compliance documentation.
Yes, it should be calibrated before and after use with an acoustic calibrator, and it supports automated calibration tracking within the software.
The doseBadge5 has a rechargeable battery designed to last a full working shift (12+ hours) on a single charge.
The standard doseBadge5 is not intrinsically safe. For explosive environments, the Intrinsically Safe doseBadge is recommended instead.
Yes, the doseBadge5 is used across construction, manufacturing, logistics, utilities, and other sectors that require personal noise exposure monitoring.
