2. Sound level meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_level_meter

   A sound level meter (also called sound pressure level meter (SPL)) 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. [ 1 ]

3. Acoustical measurements and instrumentation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustical_measurements...

   Analysis of sound and acoustics plays a role in such engineering tasks as product design, production test, machine performance, and process control. For instance, product design can require modification of sound level or noise for compliance with standards from ANSI, IEC, and ISO. The work might also involve design fine-tuning to meet market ...

4. Peak meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_meter

   A peak meter is a type of measuring instrument that visually indicates the instantaneous level of an audio signal that is passing through it (a sound level meter). In sound reproduction, the meter, whether peak or not, is usually meant to correspond to the perceived loudness of a particular signal. The term peak is used to denote the meter's ...

5. Noise dosimeter - Wikipedia

   Personal noise dosimeters. A noise dosimeter (American English) or noise dosemeter (British English) is a specialized sound level meter intended specifically to measure the noise exposure of a person integrated over a period of time; usually to comply with Health and Safety regulations such as the Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA) 29 CFR 1910.95 Occupational Noise Exposure Standard [1] or ...

6. Sound pressure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_pressure

   The main instrument for measuring sound levels in the environment is the sound level meter. Most sound level meters provide readings in A, C, and Z-weighted decibels and must meet international standards such as IEC 61672-2013.

7. Peak programme meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_programme_meter

   A typical British quasi-PPM. Each division between '1' and '7' is exactly four decibels and '6' is the intended maximum level. A peak programme meter (PPM) is an instrument used in professional audio that indicates the level of an audio signal.
