Features of the GA216i:

  • Integrated equivalent level (Leq) measurement
  • Personal Sound Exposure Level (LEpd)
  • Sound Pressure (Lp) to 0.1 dB resolution
  • 'A' and 'C' frequency weighting (toggle)
  • 'Slow' and 'Fast' Time weighting (toggle)
  • Simultaneous measurement of Lp, Lmax, and Cpeak
  • Lmax - maximum Lp hold (rms.)
  • Cpeak - maximum peak level
  • Elapsed time (running time hrs, min, sec)
  • Single Event Sound Exposure Level (LAE)
  • Overload and Under-range indication
  • Battery condition (Life approx. 12 hours)
