Pistonphone Type 42AC - Page 5

The operating procedure is straight forward, simply fit the microphone into the coupler of the

Pistonphone and switch on. The Pistonphone will now produce a constant sound pressure level

on the diaphragm of the microphone.
The Type 42AC is delivered with a 1/2

coupler

(RA0048) for calibrating 1/2

microphones

directly. The Type 42AC-S2 is delivered with a 1

coupler

(RA0023) for calibrating 1

micro

phones directly. Adaptors for calibrating ¼

and ½

microphones are included.

The coupler is individually calibrated with the pistonphone, and these must be considered as a pair
