CALIBRATION
The instrument is factory calibrated with the supplied microphone for the reference environmental conditions
(see Appendix C). The microphone sensitivity is a function of the temperature, ambient pressure and
humidity, and when the absolute sound pressure level value is required, the absolute calibration of the
measurement channel should be performed.
