APPENDIX D. DEFINITIONS AND FORMULAE OF MEASURED VALUES
D.1 B
ASIC TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
T Current time period of the measurement in seconds.
1
T
Last second of the measurement.
e
T
Exposure time in seconds (time period during which a person is exposed to the action of
noise). This parameter can be set in the
Exposure Time setup ( Measurement menu). The
available values are from 1 minute to 12 hours with 1 minute step.
h 8
T
Time period equal to 8 hours (28 800 seconds).

Exponential time constant in seconds for the giving time-weighting. Three time constant are
available:
Slow (1000 ms), Fast (125 ms), Impulse (35 ms, but on falling values a longer
time constant of 1500 ms is applied).
W Frequency-weighting filter: A , C, B or Z .

W
Instantaneous frequency-weighted sound pressure with the weighting filter W . Sound
pressure is expressed in pascals (Pa).

Q
Exchange rate in decibels is equal to 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. The value of Q influences the calculations
of dose meter results, namely
DOSE , D_8h and LAV . The exposure rate equal to 3 complies
with ISO R 1999 “Assessment of Occupational Noise Exposure for Hearing Conservation
Purpos
es”, while Q equal to 5 complies with the American “Occupational Safety and Health
Act” – OSHA.
q
Value of q is used in the calculations of
DOSE , D_8h and LAV is taken from the
formula
