FAQ Component

Frequently asked questions

What is a sound level calibrator used for?

A sound level calibrator is used to verify the accuracy of a sound level meter before and after measurements by generating a precise tone, typically 94 dB at 1 kHz.

How often should I calibrate my sound level meter?

You should check your meter’s calibration daily before and after use, and have it professionally calibrated every two years for certified accuracy.

Can I rely on the meter’s internal calibration check?

No, because internal checks don’t test the microphone, the most sensitive part of the system so an external calibrator is essential.

Why is regular calibration important?

Calibration ensures that environmental factors or wear haven’t affected your meter’s accuracy, maintaining reliable and compliant noise measurements.

How do I know when the SV 34B is ready to use?

When powered on, the calibrator quickly stabilizes its output. The tone is ready once the level remains steady.

How long can I use the SV 34B on a single set of batteries?

It runs for about 30 hours at 114 dB and up to 40 hours at 94 dB, using two AAA batteries.
