29、t were designed to conform to the class 1 or class 2 specifications of the second edition of IEC 61672-1. The aim of the standard is to ensure that periodic testing is performed in a consistent manner by all laboratories. NOTE 1 In this document, references to IEC 61672-1, IEC 61672-2, and IEC 61672
30、-3 refer to the second editions unless stated otherwise. NOTE 2 Procedures for the periodic testing of sound level meters designed to conform to the specifications of IEC 61672-1:2002 were given in IEC 61672-3:2006. The purpose of periodic testing is to assure the user that the performance of a soun
31、d level meter conforms to the applicable specifications of IEC 61672-1 for a limited set of key tests and for the environmental conditions under which the tests were performed. The extent of the tests in this part of IEC 61672 is deliberately restricted to the minimum considered necessary for period
32、ic tests. Periodic tests described in this edition of IEC 61672-3 apply to sound level meters for which the manufacturer claims conformance to the specifications of the second edition of IEC 61672-1. Periodic tests described in this part of IEC 61672 apply to sound level meters for which the model h
33、as been, or has not been, pattern approved by an independent testing organization responsible for pattern approvals in accordance with the test procedures of the second edition of IEC 61672-2. Because of the limited extent of the periodic tests, if evidence of pattern approval is not publicly availa
34、ble, no general conclusion about conformance to the specifications of IEC 61672-1 can be made, even if the results of the periodic tests conform to all applicable requirements of this edition of IEC 61672-3. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referen

40、a sound level meter. If an applicable Instruction Manual is not submitted along with the sound level meter, nor available at the laboratory, nor publicly accessible from the Internet web site of the manufacturer or supplier of the sound level meter, then no periodic tests shall be performed. 3.2 The
41、 source for the instruction manual shall be described in the documentation for the periodic tests. 3.3 All items or accessories for the sound level meter that are necessary for periodic testing shall accompany the sound level meter when it is submitted for testing. A device specified in the instruct
42、ion manual for inserting electrical signals equivalent to signals from the microphone shall also be submitted if requested by the laboratory. 3.4 Periodic tests as described in this part of IEC 61672 shall not be performed unless the markings on the sound level meter are as required by IEC 61672-1 o
43、r there is evidence that the sound level meter was originally so marked. The serial number and the model designation shall be visible on the sound level meter. 3.5 Data required to perform the periodic tests shall be available and the source of the data shall be recorded and reported by the laborato
44、ry. The data shall include all relevant information required by IEC 61672-1 and IEC 62585. 3.6 A sound calibrator shall be available. The sound calibrator shall be supplied with the sound level meter, if required by the user or if requested by the laboratory, or shall be supplied by the laboratory.
45、If a suitable sound calibrator is supplied by the user, it shall be used by the laboratory to establish the acoustical sensitivity of the sound level meter. 4 Conformance 4.1 Conformance to a performance specification is demonstrated when the following criteria are both satisfied: (a) a measured dev
46、iation from a design goal does not exceed the applicable acceptance limit and (b) the corresponding uncertainty of measurement does not exceed the corresponding maximum-permitted uncertainty of measurement given in IEC 61672-1 for the same coverage probability of 95 %. IEC 61672-1 gives example asse
47、ssments of conformance using these criteria. 4.2 For laboratories performing periodic tests, the uncertainties associated with all measurements shall be determined in accordance with the procedures of ISO/IEC Guide 98-3. Metrological terms shall be as defined in ISO/IEC Guide 99. Actual measurement
48、uncertainties shall be calculated for a coverage probability of 95 %.
