31、 of interest,it may be necessary to use more than one probe ormicrophone spacing.4.3 Frequency analyzerAn octave band or one-third octave band filter setshall meet or exceed the Order 3, Type 1-D,requirements of ANSI S1.11. 4.4 Reference sound source (RSS) The reference sound source should comply wi

32、th therequirements of ANSI S12.5.4.4.1 The RSS shall be a small, modified, direct-driven centrifugal fan having maximum overalldimensions of 610 mm (2 ft) or less.4.4.2 The RSS shall produce steady, broadbandsound over at least the frequency range from 50 Hzto 10,000 Hz. It shall comply in all respe

33、cts with theperformance requirements of ANSI S12.5 except forthe spectral characteristics of the 50 Hz and 10,000Hz one-third octave bands, where the sound powermay deviate by up to 6 dB from the sound level of theadjacent one-third octave band. The sound poweroutput shall be high enough so that the

34、 soundpressure and sound intensity levels shall be greaterthan the background noise levels. See Section 7.2.4.4.3 The RSS shall be equipped with vibrationisolators to minimize vibration transmission from theRSS into the structure of the room. The degree ofisolation should be 20 dB or more. If metal

Note 2: The useful frequency range for accuratesound intensity measurements is dependent uponthe character of the sound field. Care shall be takento verify that sound intensi

A calibration c

An acoustical calibrator conformingto ANSI S1.40, and having an accuracy of 0.5 dB orbetter, shall be used for this purpose. In conformancewith ANSI S1.40, the calibr

43、ator shall be checked atleast once every year to verify that its output has notchanged. In addition, an electrical calibration of theinstrumentation system over the entire frequencyrange of interest shall be performed periodically, atintervals as recommended by the manufacturer(s),but not more than

44、two years.In addition to the calibration check, the field checkprocedure for sound intensity measurement specifiedby the manufacturer shall be performed. If no fieldcheck procedure is specified, the following procedureshall be performed:The intensity probe shall be placed at themeasurement surface,

45、oriented normal to thesurface, at a position where the noise ischaracteristic for the fan equipment under test. Thesound intensity shall be measured. The intensityprobe shall be rotated through 180 degrees andplaced with its acoustical center in the same positionas the initial measurement. The sound

46、 intensity shallbe measured again. The intensity probe should bemounted on a stand or other mechanical device sothat its acoustical center retains the same positionwhen the probe is rotated. For the octave band withthe highest level, the absolute difference between thetwo levels shall be less than t

47、he value in Table 4 forthe measuring equipment to be acceptable. The twosound intensities shall be of opposite sign.4.7 Performance verification Periodically, the performance of the instrumentationsystem shall be verified by determining the soundpower of a reference sound source using theprocedures

48、specified in ANSI S12.12. This verificationshall be performed monthly by qualified personnel(see Section 6.2) or at the time of soundmeasurements if this occurs at intervals greater thanone month apart.The sound power level determined for the referencesource shall differ from its calibrated value ov
