CEL-63x Environmental & Occupational Noise Meter
5 Casella CEL
1 Introduction
The CEL-63x series is a family of noise meters (where „x‟ is a digit that indicates
the model variant – see Figure 14 on page 59). These are powerful
measurement tools to support a wide range of industrial, health and safety, and
environmental noise measurement requirements.
For a breakdown of the different models and their functionality, refer to
section 6
Specifications beginning on page 59.
The CEL-63x instrument uses the latest digital signal processing technology to
provide a full range of functions, including integrating and real-time octave and
1/3-octave band analysis.
The CEL-63x instrument uses a colour TFT screen to show a range of
information, including operating menus and messages, warnings, and the
results of measurements. The screen is clear and easy to read under all ambient
lighting conditions, including total darkness.
Measurements captured by the CEL-63x instrument conform to international
standards for acoustic measurement. The measurements are saved
automatically in high-capacity internal Flash memory. You can transfer the
measurement results to a PC where you can manage the results and create
reports by using the Casella insight data management software.
Audio recording is available on all CEL-63X models. Audio notes are available
on all models to allow annotation of measurements. On CEL-632 and CEL-633
models, audio can be stored with data markers or for events triggered by a
specific parameter e.g. Leq.
