4、s (a nationally adopted international standard) Secretariat: Acoustical Society of America Approved on July 21, 2014 by: American National Standards Institute, Inc. Abstract ANSI/ASA S1.4-2014/Part 2 / IEC 61672-2:2013 provides details of the tests necessary to verify conformance to all mandatory sp
5、ecifications given in ANSI/ASA S1.4-2014/Part 1 / IEC 61672-1:2013 for time-weighting sound level meters, integrating-averaging sound level meters, and integrating sound level meters. Pattern-evaluation tests apply for each channel of a multi-channel sound level meter, as necessary. Tests and test m
6、ethods are applicable to class 1 and class 2 sound level meters. The aim is to ensure that all laboratories use consistent methods to perform pattern-evaluation tests. This edition constitutes a technical revision; the main technical changes with regard to the previous edition concern conformance to
7、 specifications which is now demonstrated when measured deviations from design goals do not exceed the applicable acceptance limits, and when the uncertainty of measurement does not exceed the corresponding maximum permitted uncertainty, with both uncertainties determined for a coverage probability
8、of 95 %. In this document, references to IEC 61672-1, IEC 61672-2, and IEC 61672-3 refer to the second editions of the IEC standards unless stated otherwise. They refer equally to the ANSI/ASA S1.4-2014 / IEC 61672:2013 editions. Procedures for the pattern-evaluation testing of sound level meters de

11、013 American National Standard Electroacoustics Sound Level Meters Part 2: Pattern Evaluation Tests. As such, this Foreword may contain material that has not been subjected to public review or a consensus process. In addition, it does not contain requirements necessary for conformance to the standar
12、d. This standard comprises a part of a group of definitions, standards, and specifications for use in acoustics. It was developed and approved by Accredited Standards Committee S1 Acoustics, under its approved operating procedures. Those procedures have been accredited by the American National Stand
13、ards Institute (ANSI). The Scope of Accredited Standards Committee S1 is as follows: Standards, specifications, methods of measurement and test, and terminology in the field of physical acoustics, including architectural acoustics, electroacoustics, sonics and ultrasonics, and underwater sound, but
14、excluding those aspects which pertain to biological safety, tolerances, and comfort. This standard is identical to IEC 61672-2:2013, which was prepared by IEC Technical Committee 29, in cooperation with the International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML). However, in conformance with ANSI and I
15、EC rules, the words “this part of ANSI/ASA S1.4 / IEC 61672” replace the words “this part of IEC 61672” where they appear in the IEC document, decimal points were substituted in place of the decimal commas used in IEC documents, and American English spelling is used in place of British English spell
16、ing. The ANSI/ASA equivalents for the ISO standards in the IEC 61672 series and other referenced nationally adopted standards are given below: ANSI/ASA S1.4-2014/Part 1 / IEC 61672-1:2013 is an identical national adoption of IEC 61672-1:2013. ANSI/ASA S1.4-2014/Part 2 / IEC 61672-2:2013 is an identi
17、cal national adoption of IEC 61672-2:2013. ANSI/ASA S1.4-2014/Part 3 / IEC 61672-3:2013 is an identical national adoption of IEC 61672-3:2013. This nationally adopted international standard is one of three standards that, taken together, revise and replace ANSI/ASA S1.4-1983 (R2006), ANSI S1.4A-1985
18、 (R2006) and ANSI S1.43-1997 (R2007). The subject matter in this document (Part 2) was not part of the superseded American National Standards. U.S. NOTE: The following introductory text describes the differences between the current version of IEC 61672-2 and the 2003 version; it does NOT present the
19、 differences between this version and the previous version of ANSI S1.4-1983, ANSI S1.4A-1985, or ANSI S1.43-1997. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2003. This second edition constitutes a technical revision. The main technical changes with regard to the previou
20、s edition are as follows: In this second edition, conformance to specifications is demonstrated when: a) measured deviations from design goals do not exceed the applicable acceptance limits, and b) the uncertainty of measurement does not exceed the corresponding maximum permitted uncertainty, with b
