Sound level meter: Measurement, Standards & Applications

A sound level meter (also called sound pressure level meter) is used for acoustic measurements. It is commonly a hand-held instrument with a microphone. The best type of microphone for sound level meters is the condenser microphone, which combines precision with stability and reliability. The diaphragm of the microphone responds to changes in air…
