Environmental events on the Emerald Isle

ROYSTON, U.K. - June 3, 2013 - PRLog -- The company’s noise specialists will be demonstrating its human vibration analyser - Type 4447 - at the National University of Ireland’s (NUI) Occupational Health and Safety conference, taking place at the Galway campus on 14th and 15th June.

The 4447 meter is a portable system for testing the effects of human vibration and was designed for consultants working with measurements of - and risk evaluations caused by - exposure to occupational vibration. It’s also suitable for occupational health departments, manufacturers of building machinery, freight vehicles and other types of machinery vibration, plus manufacturers of anti-vibration pads, seats and personal protection equipment.

NUI’s one-and-a-half day conference marks 21 years of the postgraduate (MSc and HDip) programs in Occupational Health and Safety at NUI. There will be a series of presentations and social events to celebrate the achievements of the University’s graduates - plus reviews of current developments and challenges in the discipline.
