Does the L3P Sonic Sifter have to be calibrated?
No. The L3P Sonic Sifter does not come calibrated. If the user wishes to establish defined testing
levels, it is recommended a decibel meter be purchased to aid in determining precise unit settings.
The sonic wave pulse rate is basically controlled by the line voltage hertz. Amplitude merely controls
the volume of the sound wave rather than the timing.
Test sieves, however, can be certified using Advantech’s
Centerline
