STANDARDS
Conforms with the following:
• IEC 61672 – 1:2002 Class 1
• IEC 60651 Type 1 (1979) with amendments 1 and 2
• IEC 60804 Type 1 (2000)
• ANSI S1.4 – 1983 Type S1
• ANSI S1.43 – 1997 Type 1
PARAMETERS
Four parameters are measured simultaneously:
• L
, instantaneous sound pressure level, frequency
AF
weighting 'A' and time weighting 'F'
• L
, maximum sound pressure level, frequency
AFmax
weighting 'A' and time weighting 'F'
• L
, equivalent continuous sound pressure level,
Aeq
frequency weighting 'A'
• L
, maximum peak sound pressure level, fre-
Cpeak
quency weighting 'C'
Resolution: 0.1 dB for all four parameters
MEASUREMENT CONTROL
Measurements are manually controlled
Measurement times between 1 s and 60 min
MEASURING RANGES
RMS: Total range: 30 – 140 dB
Two manually selected ranges: 30 – 110 dB and 60 –
140 dB
Peak: 60 – 143 dB
NOISE FLOOR
Below measurement range, <22 dB
DETECTORS
Simultaneous RMS and Peak with independent
frequency weightings
Linear Operating Range: 80 dB
CE-mark indicates compliacne with: EMC Directive and Low Voltage Directive.
C-Tick mark indicates compliance with the EMC requirements of Australia and New
Zealand

FREQUENCY RANGE
20 Hz to 16 kHz
FREQUENCY WEIGHTINGS
A-weighting (RMS)
C-weighting (Peak)
Relative Response: See Fig.7.1 below.

OVERLOAD AND UNDER-RANGE INDICATORS
Overload is indicated at full-scale +0.3 dB
An overload detected during a timed measurement
latches and is displayed with the relevant parameters
until these are cleared
Under-range is indicated at scale lower limit –0.5 dB

Microphone
Sensitivity: –30 dB re 1 V/Pa ± 2 dB (corresponding to
31.6 mV/Pa)
Frequency Range: 8 Hz to 16 kHz ± 2 dB
DISPLAY
LCD showing:
• Input signal level – indicated with a quasi-analogue
bar
• Selected parameters with level
• Warnings for: low battery, measurement in progress,
overload and under-range
