About Sound Calibration
♦ What is a sound calibrator?
It is necessary to ensure that the sound lever meter indicates correct sound level for correct measurement. A sound calibrator that generates predetermined sound pressure is used to check a sound level meter. There are two types of sound calibrator, piston-phone type and speaker type. They generate the sound with different sound pressure level and different frequency. They are classified based on the performance into Class 1, Class 2 etc. and the specifications are determined in the standards (JIS C 1515, IEC 60942).
♦ Important points for using calibrator
There are some important points for the proper use of a sound calibrator.
