Noise Limiters / Noise Pollution Control Systems

Lime Technologies (noiselimiters.co.uk) are specialists in the noise control field and our technical department will be pleased to offer you free advice on the appropriate type of noise / sound limiter unit for your particular venue.  We also supply industrial noise warning devices to assist employers in complying with health and safety at work regulations. 

Lime Technologies only deal with noise systems - we offer the lowest prices with the highest level of service.  Please contact our sales department for a quotation on any noise control equipment.

Most local authorities and environmental health officers require the installation of an electronic noise limiter in village halls, pubs, bars, clubs, restaurants, health clubs and other entertainment venues to minimise complaints regarding noise pollution. Many schools and colleges are also fitting a noise limiter in music department practice rooms in order to protect students from possible hearing damage.

As from April 2008 entertainment venues have to comply with The Control of Noise at Work Regulations to ensure that workers hearing is protected.

PLEASE NOTE: Legislation provides that as from 1 October 2006, local authorities are able to issue fixed penalty notices in the region of £500 to the person in charge of the premises at the time of any noise complaint. This could be the license holder, manager or any other employee.  This is in addition to their existing powers to serve noise abatement notices and review premises licenses.

Lime Technologies supply two distinct types of noise limiter:

1. Sanction Noise Limiter
This type of noise limiter monitors sound levels within the venue using a built in or external microphone. If the preset sound pressure level, usually set by the local environmental health officer, is exceeded for a certain period of time (normally 10 seconds) the mains power is disconnected from the sound equipment for around 10 seconds and then automatically restored. This style of sound limiter can be used in almost any situation but is the only viable solution when bands or mobile DJs bring their own equipment to your premises. If you own or manage a pub, bar, village hall or other establishment where live music is played you can safeguard your licence and avoid the possibility of large fines by ensuring that musicians plug their equipment into a power socket controlled by a noise limiting device of this type. Sanction sound limiters will usually need to be fitted by a professional electrician as mains voltage connections are involved. The Lime NLX is the bestselling product in this category.


2. Automatic Volume Control
A unit which is connected between the mixer or sound source, a karaoke machine or CD player for example, and the main power amplifier. The unit continually monitors the sound level and reduces the volume if a preset limit is exceeded. This type of noise control system is only suitable if the sound system or at least the power amplifier is permanently installed in the venue. The Formula Sound AVC2D featured below is the industry standard for this type of noise limiting device.



Eagle G920A Sound Level Controller now discontinued - Please see Lime NLX for replacement product.
SPL2120 discontinued - Please see AVC2D for replacement product.
AIMS minim Mk IV Entertainment Noise Controller now obsolete - Please see Lime NLX for replacement product.
