Vibration Data Sourced from Tool Manufacturers and from Independent Field Test Data.

Reactec

The HAVmeter is the size and shape of a pager. At the start of each shift, each operative signs out a HAVmeter from a base station with their personalised card which, can be programmed to take into account any existing HAVS problems. Tools fitted with Tool Tags connect magnetically with the HAVmeter and once attached, the HAVmeter provides a vibration exposure reading in real-time. The operative can then use the HAVmeter on as many tools as needed throughout the day and create a cumulative reading of their vibration exposure.

The Havi is simple and effective device that attaches to any powered vibratory tool. The operator keys in the known vibration magnitude (m/s2), and when the tool is operated, the actual exposure to vibration (Trigger Time) and exposure points are displayed. When 100 points are reached (Exposure Action Value) an amber light flashes, and when 400 points (Exposure Limit Value) is reached a red light flashes. The operator records the exposure points for each tool used during a working shift to give their daily exposure total.

V2-BHHAV/IND05/11

Manufacturers data is derived from the following EN standards
EN 5349: is the standard for measuring tri-axial vibration exposure to workers using vibrating tools at the actual place of work. Results for a particular tool will vary according to different working environments. This data is not suitable for tool comparison unless the exact same working conditions are applied to each test. EN 60745: uses the measuring methods of EN 5349 but includes reproducible test conditions to allow for tool comparison and for making an initial risk assessment. However, this laboratory test method may not represent the way tools perform at work where vibration levels may be much higher. For accurate risk assessments you need data that is representative of your real-use tool vibration.
Field Test Data: is independently tested and reflects examples of typical real-life vibration levels measured during specific applications. The HSE recommends this type of data for accurate risk assessments.
