Acoustics and vibration

In the field of acoustics, METAS deals with the physical measurement of the audible range of sound. In the field of noise and environmental protection, sound level measurements provide reliable measured values with regard to compliance with legal limits for noise emissions and immissions.

Audiometry is a key method for reliably examining hearing. METAS ensures that audiometers and hearing test rooms comply with legal requirements. In doing so, we are making an important contribution to the comparability and trustworthiness of audiometric examinations in Switzerland.

METAS ensures the metrological traceability of vibration measurements. Our calibrations support industry, research and monitoring technology with reliable and internationally comparable readings.
