4、 R2007) AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Electroacoustics Sound Level Meters Part 1: Specifications (a nationally adopted international standard) Secretariat: Acoustical Society of America Approved on July 21, 2014 by: American National Standards Institute, Inc. Abstract This part of ANSI/ASA S1.4 / IEC 6

5、1672 gives electroacoustical performance specifications for three kinds of sound-measuring instruments: a time-weighting sound level meter that measures exponential-time-weighted, frequency-weighted sound levels; an integrating-averaging sound level meter that measures time-averaged, frequency-weigh

6、ted sound levels; and an integrating sound level meter that measures frequency-weighted sound exposure levels. AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS ON ACOUSTICS The Acoustical Society of America (ASA) provides the Secretariat for Accredited Standards Committees S1 on Acoustics, S2 on Mechanical Vibration and

7、 Shock, S3 on Bioacoustics, S3/SC 1 on Animal Bioacoustics, and S12 on Noise. These committees have wide representation from the technical community (manufacturers, consumers, trade associations, organizations with a general interest, and government representatives). The standards are published by t

8、he Acoustical Society of America as American National Standards after approval by their respective Standards Committees and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). These standards are developed and published as a public service to provide standards useful to the public, industry, and consu

9、mers, and to Federal, State, and local governments. Each of the Accredited Standards Committees (operating in accordance with procedures approved by ANSI) is responsible for developing, voting upon, and maintaining or revising its own Standards. The ASA Standards Secretariat administers Committee or

10、ganization and activity and provides liaison between the Accredited Standards Committees and ANSI. After the Standards have been produced and adopted by the Accredited Standards Committees, and approved as American National Standards by ANSI, the ASA Standards Secretariat arranges for their publicat

11、ion and distribution. An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially concerned with its scope and provisions. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected int

12、erests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered and that a concerted effort be made towards their resolution. The use of an American National Standard is completely voluntary. Their ex

13、istence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he or she has approved the Standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the Standards. NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any tim

14、e. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this Standard.

29、and is not a part of the American National Standard ANSI/ASA S1.4-2014/Part 1 / IEC 61672-1:2013 American National Standard Electroacoustics Sound level meters Part 1: Specifications. As such, this Foreword may contain material that has not been subjected to public review or a consensus process. In

30、addition, it does not contain requirements necessary for conformance to the standard. This standard comprises a part of a group of definitions, standards, and specifications for use in acoustics. It was developed and approved by Accredited Standards Committee S1 Acoustics, under its approved operati

31、ng procedures. Those procedures have been accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The Scope of Accredited Standards Committee S1 is as follows: Standards, specifications, methods of measurement and test, and terminology in the field of physical acoustics, including architectu

32、ral acoustics, electroacoustics, sonics and ultrasonics, and underwater sound, but excluding those aspects which pertain to biological safety, tolerances, and comfort. This nationally adopted international standard is a revision of ANSI S1.4-1983 (R 2006), ANSI S1.4A-1985 (R 2006), and ANSI S1.43-19

33、97 (R 2007), which have been technically revised. This standard is identical to IEC 61672-1:2013, which was prepared by IEC Technical Committee 29, in cooperation with the International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML). However, in conformance with ANSI and IEC rules, the words “this part of A

34、NSI/ASA S1.4 / IEC 61672” replace the words “this part of IEC 61672” where they appear in the IEC document, decimal points were substituted in place of the decimal commas used in IEC documents, and American English spelling is used in place of British English spelling. An informational annex is also

35、 included that is not found in IEC 61672/Part 1. In accordance with clause A.1 b) of ANSI Procedures for the National Adoption of ISO and IEC Standards as American National Standards, a standard will still be considered identical if it includes “any regional or national informative material (e.g. in

36、formative annexes that do not alter, add to or delete from the provision of the ISO or IEC standard); examples of informative material are advice to users, training guidance or suggested forms or reports.” This standard includes six Annexes. Annexes B, D and E are normative and are considered to be

37、a part of this standard. Annexes A and C are informative and are not considered part of this standard. Annex F is additional, totally informative material for U.S. users and is shown in bold, blue text within a blue border. The ANSI/ASA equivalents for the IEC standards in the IEC 61672 series are g

42、n of IEC 61672-1 and the 2002 version; it does NOT present the differences between this version and the previous version of ANSI S1.4-1983, ANSI S1.4A-1985, or ANSI S1.43-1997. For assessments of conformance to performance specifications, this second edition of IEC 61672-1 uses different criteria th

43、an were used for the 2002 first edition. In the period from 1961 to 1985, International Standards for sound level meters did not provide any requirements or recommendations to account for the uncertainty of measurement in assessments of conformance to specifications. This absence of requirements or

44、recommendations to account for uncertainty of measurement created ambiguity in determinations of conformance to specifications for situations where a measured deviation from a design goal was close to a limit of the allowed deviation. If conformance was determined based on whether a measured deviati

45、on did or did not exceed the limits, the end-user of the sound level meter incurred the risk that the true deviation from a design goal exceeded the limits. To remove this ambiguity, IEC Technical Committee 29, at its meeting in 1996, adopted a policy to account for measurement uncertainty in assess

46、ments of conformance in International Standards that it prepares. The first edition (2002) of IEC 61672-1 accounted for measurement uncertainty by giving two explicit criteria for determining conformance to the specifications. The two criteria were (a) that measured deviations from design goals, ext

47、ended by the expanded uncertainty of measurement, do not exceed the applicable tolerance limits and (b) that the expanded uncertainty of measurement does not exceed agreed-upon maximum values. For most performance specifications, the tolerance limits were calculated essentially by extending the allo

48、wances for design and manufacturing from the 1979 and 1985 International Standards for sound level meters by the applicable maximum-permitted expanded uncertainties of measurement. Tolerance limits were intended to represent the limits for true deviations from design goals with a coverage probabilit

49、y of 95 %. This second edition of IEC 61672-1 uses an amended criterion for assessing conformance to a specification. Conformance is demonstrated when (a) measured deviations from design goals do not exceed the applicable acceptance limits and (b) the uncertainty of measurement does not exceed the corresponding maximum-permitted uncertainty. Acceptance limits are analogous to the allowances for design and manufacturing implied in the first edition (2002) of IEC 61672-1. Actual and maximum-permitted uncertainties are
