Field calibration is an essential part of any sound level measurement. Measurement microphone sensitivity is affected by factors such as temperature and atmospheric pressure. A single point field calibration finely tunes the sensitivity of the measurement system to match current conditions and is an important step in the documentation and validation of your measurement chain. Follow the steps shown in the video below to ensure pre- and post-calibration data is included in your results data file.
It is important to calibrate Sound Level Meters before and after use due to the effect weather conditions have on microphone sensitivity. In addition, these quick field calibrations are a critical part of documenting measurement validity.
