Ever
since the Walsh–Healey Act and the Occupational
Safety and Health Act, noise abatement has become a
prime concern in every workplace. Most states have incorporated
industrial noise standards in their workers' compensation
packages. However, companies cannot take positive action
to effectively control noise until its source is accurately
determined.
VSC provides acoustic noise measurement
services to determine OSHA compliance and/or locate
the source of acoustic disturbances. Octave band, 1/3
octave band charts or spectral displays of discrete
frequency components are typical data formats. Test
reports include copies of all data which are accompanied
by a written report featuring detailed analysis and
recommendations. Typical solutions to noise problems
range from installing sound abatement systems to dynamic
vibration absorber systems.
Within any facility, noise comes from
several sources of complex sounds that require precise
analytical measurement. It is vital to obtain a dependable
and complete sound analysis before implementing a noise
control program. VSC noise experts use state-of-the-art
technology to, not only identify all OSHA noncompliance
noise, but to provide solutions. Our sound analysis
is conducted on a routine basis as a matter of preventive
maintenance. In many instances it is performed as a
part of VSC’s predictive maintenance program,
which detects mechanical and electrical trouble before
costly destruction. Once complete, VSC provides the
customers with a Noise Control Certification that confirms
their compliance with OSHA noise regulations. Relieve
yourself of the OSHA compliance headache by having VSC
professionals handle it for you.
