Sound level meter with data logging

The CEM DT-8851 is a digital sound level meter that records up to 32700 readings and transfers them to a PC over USB. It conforms to IEC61672-1 class 2 for sound level meters and offers A and C frequency weighting with fast and slow time response. Analog AC and DC outputs allow connection to a frequency analyser or X-Y recorder. The unit measures 278 x 76 x 50 mm and weighs 350 g.

Environmental and industrial noise assessment

This instrument suits engineers and technicians conducting noise surveys in factories, schools, offices, traffic routes and households. It provides MAX and MIN capture plus overrange and underrange indication for quality control and illness prevention work. The adjustable alarm levels and datalogger function are only available on the DT-8852 model, so buyers who need those features should look at that version. Batteries are not supplied due to shipping restrictions.

32700-reading memory capacity

The internal memory stores 32700 measurements, which is the single specification that determines whether this meter can cover a full monitoring campaign without offloading. If a project requires more storage or the alarm functions found on the DT-8852, this model will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

What power source does the DT-8851 require since batteries are not included?

The meter needs standard batteries purchased locally; the package excludes them due to air-shipping restrictions.

Can I connect the DT-8851 to an older X-Y shaft recorder or frequency analyser?

Yes, the unit provides analog AC and DC outputs specifically for those legacy devices.

How do I verify the DT-8851 is logging correctly after setup?

Check that the display shows readings within range, the MAX/MIN values update, and the USB link transfers the 32700 stored readings to the PC.
