Blue: Equivalent Continuous Sound Pressure Level (Leq)
Green: Single-shot Sound Exposure Level (Lae)

 

 

This software can perform 1/1 or 1/3 real-time octave band analysis from 2 to 32 channels at the frequency range of 0.5 to 20kHz. DS-0223V is available for 2-ch, DS-0223W is for 4 to 8-ch, and DS-0223X is for 10 to 32-ch. Sound filter conforms to IEC, JIS and ANSI.

 

By setting the measurement time, Equivalent Continuous Sound Pressure Level and Single-shot Sound Exposure Level can be calculated simultaneously. Also, it can be recorded level fluctuation of each band (time-series) at maximum 2,000 points. Using those data, Percentile Sound Pressure Level for each band can be calculated. Operating system is Windows2000 / XP / VISTA. Based on this software, the function can be expanded with optional software DS-0224, 1/6, 1/12, 1/24 real-time octave analysis and DS-0243, rotation-tracking analysis by real-time octave band.

 

Equivalent Continuous Sound Pressure Level: An average value which is obtained by dividing t-hour (s) of total level by t. Single-shot Sound Exposure Level: A value as converted t-hour (s) of level to one-minute of level.


What is Real-time octave analysis

When noise control countermeasure is taken, frequency analysis is required. Octave analysis has been used as one of the way for noise analysis. Octave represents the ratio of frequency is 1 to 2, that means 2 times of frequency. Feeling of human hearing has characteristics in equal ratio which respects to the frequency. In view of this feature, octave-band series is standardized based on the frequency at 1kHz. The sound pressure of each band is obtained through the standardized band-pass filter. The octave-band based on the frequency at 1kHz is called 1/1 octave-band, and then further division to three of 1/1 octave-band is called 1/3 octave-band.

*Percentile Sound Pressure Level: It indicates the percentage of level in t-time. L50 is called central value,

which is the middle value counted from maximum level.
