Hand-held Analyzer Types 2250 and 2270 – User Manual
Note: The Auto detect setting enables the automatic detection of the calibration level. For
free-field microphone types (like Types 4189 and 4190) the calibration level from Sound
Calibrator Type 4231 is either 93.85 dB or 113.85 dB. For diffuse- or pressure-field types,
the calibration level is either 94 dB or 114 dB. The calibration process automatically
determines the correct level
• Calibrator Serial Number: Type in the serial number for your calibrator. The calibrator
will be documented in the calibration history
5.4 Vibration Calibration
To calibrate an accelerometer use Calibration Exciter Type 4294. It provides a stable
acceleration of 10 m/s
2
at 159 Hz. The procedure for mounting the accelerometer to the exciter
is described in the Type 4294 user manual. Otherwise the calibration procedure is very similar
to the Standard Calibration procedure for sound calibration described above. However, if the
calibration deviates more than ± 5.5 dB from the nominal sensitivity, the calibration is stopped
without changing the calibration of the analyzer. In this case, check whether the correct
accelerometer has been selected from the transducer database and whether it has the correct
nominal sensitivity.
Note: If you use Low Level Accelerometer Type 8344, you need Calibration Exciter
Type 4294-002.
5.5 Electrical Calibration
To calibrate the Direct input use a stable sinusoidal voltage at a frequency between 150 Hz and
10 kHz. The procedure is very similar to the Standard Calibration procedure for sound
calibration described above; however, without the transducer mounting procedure.
5.6 Manual Calibration
If no calibrator is available (or a known amplification is introduced, that is, by analyzing a tape
recorded signal) then you can type the sensitivity directly into the Sensitivity field. The
analyzer will be regarded as un-calibrated and the text ‘Uncal.’ will appear in the Status Field.
5.7 Calibration History
To view calibration history, tap Calibration History > on the Calibration Details screen (Fig.5.2).
The analyzer saves the last 20 calibrations, plus initial calibration, which can be viewed on the
Calibration History screen (Fig.5.3). Tap to return to the calibration details screen; tap
again to return to the Measurement screen.
