Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
Qawwa mixgħul/mitfi
Biex tixgħel l-apparat, żżerżaq il- ON/OFF (AC) switch to the "ON" position. To power off, slide the switch to "OFF".
Għażla ta' Medda ta' Kejl
Uża l- dB switch to select the appropriate decibel range for your measurement: 30-80 dB, 50-100 dB, or 80-130 dB. If the display shows "OVER" (overload) or "UNDER" (underload), adjust the range switch to a more suitable setting until a valid reading is displayed.
Weighting Scales (A/C)
Il- L-UŻAR switch allows you to select between "A" and "C" frequency weighting scales:
- A-Weighting: This setting mimics the human ear's response to sound at lower to moderate levels. It is commonly used for general environmental noise measurements and for assessing compliance with occupational noise exposure limits (e.g., OSHA).
- C-Weighting: This setting provides a flatter frequency response, measuring sound levels more uniformly across the audible spectrum. It is often used for measuring peak sound levels or the noise output of machinery.
Response Time (Fast/Slow)
Il- RISPONS switch selects the meter's response time:
- MALAJR: This setting captures rapid changes in sound levels, suitable for measuring impulsive or quickly fluctuating noise.
- Bil-mod: This setting provides an averaged reading over a longer period, offering a more stable measurement for noise levels that fluctuate significantly.
MAX HOLD Function
Żerżaq il- ŻOMM MAX switch to activate this function. The meter will continuously monitor and display the highest sound level detected since the function was engaged. To clear the held value and restart the maximum hold measurement, slide the switch off and then back on.
Kalibrazzjoni
The meter features an internal oscillation system for basic calibration checks. For precise calibration, it is recommended to use an external acoustic calibrator. The "94dB CAL" setting can be used for quick verification against a known 94 dB source. For detailed calibration procedures, please refer to the comprehensive manual or contact Sper Scientific customer support.
Manutenzjoni
Tindif
To clean the meter, gently wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the device. Ensure the microphone is kept clean and free from dust, lint, or any obstructions that could affect measurement accuracy.
Ħażna
When the sound meter will not be used for an extended period, remove the 9V battery to prevent potential leakage and damage to the internal components. Store the meter in its protective carrying case in a cool, dry environment, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity.
Sostituzzjoni tal-batterija
When the low battery indicator appears on the display, it signifies that the 9V battery needs to be replaced. Promptly replace the battery to ensure continued accurate operation of the device.
Issolvi l-problemi
- Ebda Display jew Qawwa: Check that the 9V battery is correctly installed with proper polarity and has sufficient charge. Replace the battery if necessary.
- "OVER" or "UNDER" on Display: This indicates that the current sound level is outside the selected measurement range. Adjust the dB range switch to a higher or lower setting until a stable reading is shown.
- Inaccurate or Unstable Readings: Ensure the microphone is clear of any obstructions and the windscreen is properly attached. Verify that the correct weighting (A/C) and response time (Fast/Slow) settings are selected for your application. Perform a calibration check.
- Operazzjoni intermittenti: Check battery connections for looseness. Ensure the device is not exposed to extreme environmental conditions (temperature, humidity).
