Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of Extech’s Sound Level Calibrator. Extech Calibrators

accommodate Sound Level Meters with 0.5” and 1” microphones. The Calibrator’s die-cast

aluminum housing is built for ruggedness and durability. The 407744 provides a 94dB

calibration output signal while the 407766 provides both 94dB and 114dB outputs. This

professional calibrator, with proper care, will provide years of safe reliable service.

Operation

Theory of Operation

The 407744 sound level calibrator generates a 94dB sine wave at 1 KHz. The 407766

generates a 94dB and a 114dB sine wave at 1kHz. When a microphone from a sound level

meter is inserted into the calibrator, the sound level meter picks up the signal and displays

the signal in dB (decibel) units. The sound level meter should be adjusted (if necessary) to

match the calibrator’s output signal as closely as possible (see diagram).

Procedure

1. Insert the microphone into the calibrator’s microphone cavity as shown; ensure that it is

fully inserted. Use the ½” microphone adaptor (supplied attached to

the calibrator) for ½” microphones. Remove the adaptor (remove as

shown in the Description section) for 1” microphones.

2. On the 407744, slide the function switch to the ‘I’ (Power On) position.

As soon as the unit is powered, the calibration tone is generated. On

the 407766, slide the function switch to the 94dB or the 114dB

position as desired. The calibrator generates its signal as soon as the

switch is set.

3. Read the sound level meter’s display. The sound level meter should

read 94dB or 114dB depending on the calibrator’s setting. If the sound

level meter does not match the calibrator’s signal (within

specification), adjust it as explained in the Operation section (typically

a front or side-panel pot adjustment). Refer to diagram at right.

4. Slide function switch to the OFF position, and remove the microphone.
