25、nse characteristics of sound level meters described in IEC651 are not specified above20000Hz. Consequently these instruments are not suitable for measuring the ultrasonic airborne energy emitted, for example, by ultrasonic cleaners, mechanical tools and welders which operate at frequencies above2000
26、0Hz. Moreover, these instruments are also unsuitable for measuring the audio-frequency part of the sound emitted by such equipment, because the ultrasound will give rise to inflated readings if the frequency response of a particular sound level meter happens to extend to the operating frequency of t
27、he ultrasonic equipment. The noise which is usually of interest with ultrasonic equipment arises from audible sounds produced by the ultrasonic process, for example, the cavitation noise which is audible in ultrasonic cleaners. To achieve reproducible measurements of the audible sound with existing
28、sound level meters which comply with IEC651, the practice is to use the A-weighting response in conjunction with a low-pass filter which has a very sharp cut-off above20000Hz. The purpose of this standard is to specify the characteristics of such a low-pass filter. When the filter characteristic is
29、used with the sound level meter A-weighting specified in IEC651, the resulting nominal values of the overall frequency response fall within the scope of Type1 tolerances. Where the measurement of the ultrasonic component frequencies is required, the practice is to measure the unweighted sound pressu
30、re level using a microphone system which is known to have a frequency response extending sufficiently, for example, to at least the operating frequency of the ultrasonic equipment. A narrow band or one-third octave band filter is usually included in the measuring chain. However, this standard is not
31、 concerned with the measurement of such components, nor with any possible hazard from them. 1 Scope This standard specifies the electrical characteristics of a U-weighting filter mainly for use with sound level meters meeting the requirements of IEC651 for the measurement of audible sound in the pre
32、sence of ultrasound. 2 Filter characteristics 2.1 The filter may be a separate accessory unit or built into a conventional sound level meter. 2.2 The frequency characteristic of the filter shall be designated “U-weighting”. Where the filter is combined with the A-weighting characteristic, the overal
33、l response shall be designated “AU-weighting”. The nominal value of the AU-weighting is the sum of the relative frequency responses of the A- and U-weightings, expressed in decibels, as specified in IEC651 and in this standard respectively. At the frequencies25000Hz,31500Hz and40000Hz, the values 50
34、,0dB, 65,4dB and 81,1dB shall be used as nominal values of the AU-weighting. When quoting the weighted sound pressure level, the frequency weighting “U” or “AU”, as the case may be, shall be indicated. 2.3 The frequency response and tolerances of the filter as a separate unit shall be as shown in Ta
35、ble 1. The pole locations to provide the frequency characteristic of this filter are given inTable 2. If the filter is built into, or externally connected to, a sound level meter, the Type1 tolerances given in IEC651, TableV, for the free field response apply. At the frequencies25000Hz,31500Hz and40
36、000Hz, the overall tolerances shall be +3, Z dB. 2.4 If the filter is battery-operated, means shall be provided to check that adequate battery voltages are maintained so that the performance of the filter remains within the specified tolerances. 3 Sensitivity to various environments 3.1 The effects
37、of magnetic and electrostatic fields shall be reduced as far as practical. The filter shall be tested in a magnetic field of strength80A/m(1oersted) at50Hz or at60Hz. The filter shall be oriented in a direction which gives maximum indication and this indication shall be stated either as a voltage me
38、asured at the output terminals of the filter or, where the filter forms part of a sound level measuring system, as a sound level on the indicator. The test frequency shall be stated. 3.2 The temperature range over which the insertion gain or loss of the filter measured at1000Hz is not affected by mo
39、re than0,5dB referred to the value at20C shall be specified by the manufacturer. If the variation in the insertion gain or loss exceeds0,5dB in the temperature range 10C to+50C, correction information shall be specified by the manufacturer. The manufacturer shall indicate the temperature limits whic
40、h may not be exceeded without risk of permanent damage to the filter.IEC 61012:1990 4 BSI 05-1998 3.3 The manufacturer shall state the range of relative humidity over which the filter is intended to operate continuously. The sensitivity shall not change by more than 0,5dB referred to the indication
41、at65% when the relative humidity varies from30% to90%. The test shall be conducted at a temperature of40C at a frequency of1000Hz. 3.4 If the filter is built into or externally connected to a sound level meter the overall effects of magnetic and electrostatic fields, temperature, and humidity shall
42、not exceed the limits specified in the relevant clauses (Type1 instruments) of IEC651. 4 Rating information and instruction manual 4.1 A filter which is constructed as a separate accessory and which complies with this standard shall be marked to show the number of this standard, the name of the manu
43、facturer, the model number and the serial number. Where the filter is built into a sound level meter and combined with the A-weighting characteristic, the switch position shall be marked “AU”. 4.2 Where the filter is constructed as a separate accessory, the following information shall either be mark
44、ed on the filter or be included in an instruction manual: 4.2.1 The model of sound level meters for which the filter meets the requirements, especially those of2.3 and3.4. 4.2.2 The nominal input and output impedances of the filter. 4.2.3 The nominal source and load impedances between which the filt
45、er is designed to operate. 4.2.4 The insertion loss, in decibels, at1000Hz when the filter is connected between the source and load impedances specified in4.2.3. 4.2.5 The maximum input voltage to the filter. 4.3 An instruction manual shall be supplied with the filter; it shall include at least the
46、information listed below: a) The nominal frequency response characteristic specified inTable 1. b) The effect of magnetic fields as tested in accordance with3.1. c) The effects of temperature in accordance with3.2. d) The effects of humidity in accordance with3.3.
