Abstract
A wireless field device for use in monitoring acoustic noise includes an acoustic sensor configured to sense acoustic noise. Processing circuitry coupled to the acoustic sensor is configured to identify a hazardous noise condition based upon the sensed acoustic noise and a personnel noise exposure standard. Output circuitry provides a warning output in response to an identified noise condition. A system is also provided which uses one or more acoustic sensors implemented in wireless field mounted monitors.
