Supplied with a robust, weather protected case along with an outdoor microphone, The Outdoor Kit2 allows noise measurements to be made over long periods of time, whatever the weather. It provides protection for the sound level meter and measurement microphone from adverse conditions and is extremely easy to transport and install with a secure, lockable case. The flexible power options using internal batteries & external power are designed to be used with the Cirrus' market-leading Optimus Green Sound Level Meter.

We already see it becoming the industry standard for constructions sites, mining operations, or by those involved in environmental impact assessments and wind farm noise monitoring."
