iDB Class 1

Internet Noise Monitor


  • Multichannel noise monitoring
  • Alarms via email, text message or visual traffic light system
  • Class 1 performance over a 95 dB dynamic range
  • Leq, L10, L90 Lmax and more in both dB(A) and dB(C) simultaneously

The Turnkey® internet iDB Class 1 provides remote on-site multichannel monitoring of noise with data logging and automatic alarms via email, text messaging, or a visual traffic light system. Alarm types and thresholds for vibration and noise are configured by the user and their thresholds can be set to depend on the time of day.

iDB connects to Turnkey’s AirQWeb cloud server. This allows integrated monitoring and control of noise, vibration, dust, meteorology, and air quality on your site. Live and historical LeqL10L90LmaxLCpeak and other readings are available to view on your computer, phone or tablet, anywhere, anytime. The reporting interval can be as fast as every minute.

iDB gives Class 1 performance over a 95 dB dynamic range, so 30 dB to 120 dB SPL is covered in a single range. Uniquely, iDBmeasures both dB(A) and dB(C) frequency weightings simultaneously, with F or S time weightings. As well as Leq over the reporting interval, iDB also reports statistical values such as L10, L90 and Lmax in both dB(A) and dB(C) simultaneously. Other statistical sound indicators over arbitrary periods can be calculated within AirQWeb from the uploaded readings.

For Class 1 noise monitoring simultaneously with vibration monitoring, see our iVIBE monitor.
