1. መግቢያ
የ Amprobe SM-CAL1 is a precision sound meter calibrator designed to ensure the accuracy and reliability of your sound level measurements. This device generates two fixed sound pressure levels, 94 decibels (dB) and 114 dB, at a frequency of 1,000 hertz (Hz), allowing for precise calibration of sound meters with microphones up to 1/2 inch in diameter. Regular calibration is crucial for maintaining measurement integrity and compliance with relevant standards.
This manual provides detailed instructions for the proper use, maintenance, and troubleshooting of your SM-CAL1 Sound Meter Calibrator.

5.1 Calibrating a Sound Meter
- Gently insert the microphone of your sound level meter into the opening on the top of the SM-CAL1 calibrator. Ensure a snug fit to minimize sound leakage.
- Select the desired calibration level using the slide switch on the calibrator:
- Slide to '94' for a 94 dB signal.
- Slide to '114' for a 114 dB signal.
- Observe the reading on your sound level meter. Adjust your sound meter's calibration settings until its display matches the selected output level of the SM-CAL1 (either 94 dB or 114 dB). Refer to your sound meter's user manual for specific calibration adjustment procedures.
- Once calibration is complete, slide the switch to 'OFF' to conserve battery life.
- Carefully remove the sound meter's microphone from the calibrator.
5.2 ዝቅተኛ የባትሪ አመልካች
The SM-CAL1 is equipped with a low-battery indicator. When the battery voltage drops below a certain level, the indicator light will dim or not illuminate, signaling that the 9V battery needs to be replaced.
6. ጥገና
6.1 ጽዳት
To clean the exterior of the calibrator, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the casing ወይም የውስጥ አካላት.
6.2 ማከማቻ
When not in use, store the SM-CAL1 in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods, it is recommended to remove the 9V battery to prevent leakage.
6.3 Recalibration of the SM-CAL1
While the SM-CAL1 is designed for stable output, periodic verification of its accuracy by a certified calibration laboratory is recommended to ensure continued compliance with standards and optimal performance. The frequency of such recalibration depends on usage and regulatory requirements.
7. መላ መፈለግ
| ችግር | ሊሆን የሚችል ምክንያት | መፍትሄ |
|---|---|---|
| No sound output / Power indicator off | ባትሪው ሞቷል ወይም በስህተት ተጭኗል። | Replace the 9V battery, ensuring correct polarity. |
| Inaccurate calibration readings on sound meter | Microphone not properly seated; Calibrator needs recalibration; Sound meter issue. | Ensure microphone is snugly fitted. Consider sending SM-CAL1 for professional recalibration. Check your sound meter's functionality. |
| Sound meter reading fluctuates | Ambient noise interference; Loose microphone connection. | Perform calibration in a quiet environment. Re-seat the microphone firmly. |
