By automating the noise source identification process, SvanNET AI provides precise and real-time noise monitoring, enabling cities to manage urban noise pollution more effectively.
In acoustics, noise sources identification is crucial for effective noise control. By recognizing the source of noise, acoustic engineers can identify where design changes will most effectively improve the overall noise radiation. The main applications are in product design and environmental noise management. In product design, classic analog methods such as beamforming, microphone arrays, or frequency analysis are used. However, in environmental noise, the large amount of data makes it impossible to scale manually. Particularly with traffic noise, acousticians must identify types of vehicles (car, truck), types of trains (cargo, passenger), or aircraft passages, and count them per day or week to evaluate long-term patterns. AI solves this problem by efficiently processing large datasets and providing scalable and accurate noise source identification.

The SV 102A+ is a Class 1 dual-channel noise dosimeter, integrating two distinct functionalities: dual-channel noise measurement and Class 1 frequency range capability. The dual-channel feature allows for simultaneous noise exposure assessment on both sides of the head or in configurations such as underneath a headset and on a shoulder, enhancing the accuracy of noise exposure data in diverse working environments. This capability is particularly beneficial for assessing asymmetric noise exposure, where noise may predominantly come from one direction.
Class 1 accuracy of the SV 102A+ signifies its ability to measure a full frequency range from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. This is a critical feature for workplaces with high-frequency noise sources, as standard Class 2 dosimeters typically measure up to only 8 kHz. The wider frequency range makes sure that the instrument meets the requirements of ISO 9612 for Class 1 instruments, which is important for accurate noise assessment in places where there is a lot of high-frequency noise.
The SV 102A+ also features audio recording, facilitating unattended noise measurements.

As defined by ISO 8041, a Human Vibration Meter (HVM) is a device that uses a vibrational transducer, signal processor, and display to measure human response to vibrations. HVM is typically used in hand-arm vibration measurements to prevent HAVS. In whole-body, they are typically used for the calculation of Vibration Dose Value.
Human vibrations are mechanical vibrations that are transmitted directly to the human body, affecting different tissues in different ways. There are three types of human vibrations:
hand-arm vibration (ISO 5349);
whole-body vibration (ISO 2631);
low-frequency whole-body vibration in the frequency range from 0,1 Hz to 0,5 Hz (ISO 2631)
SV 103 Human Vibration Meter (Personal Human Vibration Exposure Meter) is dedicated to hand-arm vibration measurements. The instrument meets ISO 8041:2021 and is the ideal choice for making measurements according to ISO 5349 and European Directive 2002/44/EC. The SV 103 Human Vibration Meter significantly decreases the measurement uncertainty as the instrument is attached to the user’s arm and is small enough to take daily vibration exposure measurements without interfering with normal working activities.
The SV 103 Human Vibration Meter uses our latest accelerometer, the SV 107, that has a contact force sensor in addition to the standard accelerometer. Contact force is the sum of grip force and push force and is therefore a measurement of how firmly a user is holding the vibrating tool. This is a recommendation of the new standards and the reading from the contact force sensor is also displayed on the screen.
The SV 107 accelerometer is based on MEMS, the very latest in transducers technology.

For advanced users, the SV 100A offers frequency analysis in 1/1 or 1/3 octaves and time domain signal recording to wave format in accordance to ISO 2631-5 that is compatible with popular recalculation software. The SV 100A is fully configurable with our Supervisor software. It can quickly and easily be setup for all the weighting filters required by ISO standards.
Supervisor is a PC software package for health and safety specialists. The package supports all Svantek instruments for the health and safety market. The plug & play connection automatically detects noise dosimeters, sound level meters and vibration dosimeters to configure the measurement settings and download the data. Every instrument that connects to Supervisor is remembered together with information such as the uploaded settings, firmware version, as well as the calibration validity date and instrument clock time. When data is downloaded, they are automatically categorised by measurement time and assigned to the instrument’s serial number.
Supervisor is designed to meet the needs of different users. In the case of simple applications that only require the analysis of the main results such as LAeq, LAFmax and Lcpeak, the program offers quick previews and reporting without the need to open any data files. More advanced applications are handled within sessions where the user can choose the type of analysis to be performed. Those who draw up noise or vibration reports on a daily basis will appreciate the report templates which, once created, can be applied to different sets of measurement files.

The SV 110 is the perfect solution for calibration checks of hand-arm vibration meters including Svantek’s SV103 and SV106A. Following the requirements of ISO 8041, the calibrator’s built-in reference accelerometer measures the cross-axis (transverse) vibrations to detect any interference to the calibration signal. Faults caused by transverse vibrations are indicated by two LEDS on the calibrator’s housing. This unique solution ensures stability of both the calibration level & frequency, independent from the mass of the test object.
The small size of the SV 110 Vibration Calibrator makes it very useful for calibration checks of various types of machine vibration accelerometers. Depending on the selected frequency, the user can select the level of the calibration from 1 m/s2 to 10 m/s2. Accelerometers are conveniently attached using either a mounting stud, a mounting disc or a dedicated adapter. The calibrator has built-in rechargeable batteries that will power it for 12 hours of continuous operation.
SV 36 is a type approved sound calibrator meeting class 1 requirements in accordance to IEC 60942:2017. The calibrator is designed for calibration of class 1 sound level meters and class 2 sound level meters at 94 dB and 114 dB at frequency of 1 kHz.
The accuracy of the calibration signal is controlled by a built-in microprocessor and reference sensors: piezoresistive sensor that monitors accuracy of the generated pressure level, atmospheric pressure sensor and temperature sensor. The feedback regulation control loop makes all adjustments of the calibration signal fully automatic so users do not require any manual adjustments to the ambient temperature and static pressure levels.
The SV 36 Class 1 acoustic calibrator features an infrared sensor that detects microphone presence and turns on/off the calibrator automatically. The calibrator is powered by two LR03/AAA batteries. Each acoustic calibrator is provided with a statement of the calibration which allows the user to be certain that their instruments will measure correctly.
SV 33B Sound Calibrator is a class 1 sound calibrator produces an acoustic pressure of reference level 114 dB at frequency of 1 kHz. The SV 33B is suitable for calibration of Class 1 and Class 2 sound level meters and dosimeters with 1/2″ microphones.
SV 33B uses a built-in reference piezoresistive sensor for monitoring generated level, pressure and temperature sensors for measurements of atmospheric conditions and a microprocessor system controlling the operation of the calibrator. Sinusoidal waveform of 1 kHz frequency is digitally generated and feeds the loudspeaker. Sampled signal from the reference piezoresistive sensor indicates the level of currently generated signal in a feedback loop. On the basis of information about the level of the signal, actual values of pressure and temperature, microprocessor adjusts amplification of the loudspeaker signal in order to produce appropriate sound pressure level in the calibrator’s chamber.
The SV34B Sound Calibrator is a class 2 sound calibrator that generates reference signal of 114 dB at 1 kHz and is designed to calibrate class 2 sound level meters and noise dosimeters with 1/2″ microphones. The calibrator features the robust housing that gives comfort of a secure grip to its users.
