doseBadge® – 20 Years of Evolutionary Success

1996年卷开创了第一个doseBadge噪音Dosimeter. 20 years later and we are preparing to launch the fifth generation.

The philosophy of the doseBadge is to eliminate cables, controls and buttons. This reduces the risk of damage, tampering, weight and service costs for the user. This philosophy will never change.

Today, Cirrus has sold more than 20,000 doseBadges to help companies around the world with their Noise at Work monitoring. The innovative engineering behind the doseBadge has changed the way we look at noise dosimeters.

Evolution of the doseBadge

dosebadge development over 20 years

1995: The Theory of Everything (Prototype)

Our mission was to create a self-contained noise dosimeter with the microphone, battery and mechanics to analyse personal noise exposure continuously. The evolution of the doseBadge began by testing this fundamental idea to see if it was possible.

1996: THE First Wireless Noise Dosimeter (MK I)

Our prototypes proved the theory was possible, so the first production model of the doseBadge went on sale. This was the world’€™s first wireless noise dosimeter. The original casing was machined from a solid aluminium billet.

1998: Evolving the Iconic Design (MK II)

We improved the cone-shaped design of the doseBadge to make it even more durable. The new casings were cast in aluminium and now featured the doseBadge name. The microphone and battery was also fine-tuned to provide greater performance.

2002: Improving the Functionality (MK III)

The design didn’t change but the doseBadge became capable of so much more. It provided 1-minute data-logging allowing for detailed analysis of personal noise exposure. It could also be configured to measure within different Regulations worldwide.

2007: Intrinsically Safe Approval (MK IV)

The gold casing signifies the doseBadge is Intrinsically Safe for use in highly flammable environments. It also boasts 24+ hours of battery life, two channels for recording data and a host of further enhancements.

2016: The Fifth Generation is Coming… [MK V]

The result of 20 years of evolutionary success. The fifth generation of the doseBadge is coming this summer.
