| Abstract |
This international standard describes instruments for the measurement of frequency-weighted and time-averaged sound pressure levels. It takes into account the requirements of CEI 651, sound level meters, and specifies additional characteristics for the measurement of the equivalent continuous sound pressure level, Leq, of steady, intermittent, fluctuating and impulsive sounds. The terms "integrating sound level meter" or "averaging sound level meter" may be used. From the contents: object and general requirements; definitions; general characteristics; frequency weighting and amplifier characteristics; averaging and indicator characteristics; overload indication; sensitivity to various environments; calibration and verification of the basic characteristics; rating information and instruction manual. |
