EN 60942:2003
(Main)Electroacoustics - Sound calibrators
Electroacoustics - Sound calibrators
Specifies the performance requirements for three classes of sound calibrator: laboratory standard (class LS), class 1 and class 2. Tolerance limits are smallest for class LS and greatest for class 2 instruments. Class LS sound calibrators are normally used only in the laboratory; class 1 and class 2 are considered as sound calibrators for field use. A class 1 sound calibrator is primarily intended for use with a class 1 sound level meter and a class 2 sound calibrator primarily with a class 2 sound level meter, as specified in EN 61672-1. The tolerance limits for class LS sound calibrators are based on the use of a laboratory standard microphone, as specified in EN 61094-1, for demonstrations of conformance to the requirements of this standard. The tolerance limits for class 1 and class 2 sound calibrators are based on the use of a working standard microphone, as specified in EN 61094-4, for demonstrations of conformance to the requirements of this standard. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 1997, and its amendment 1 (2000), of which it constitutes a technical revision.
Elektroakustik - Schallkalibratoren
Electroacoustique - Calibreurs acoustiques
Spécifie des prescriptions concernant les caractéristiques de trois classes de calibreurs acoustiques: la classe LS pour les étalons de laboratoire, la classe 1 et la classe 2. Les limites de tolérance les plus petites concernent la classe LS et les plus grandes concernent les appareils de classe 2. Les calibreurs acoustiques de classe LS ne sont normalement utilisés qu'en laboratoire; les appareils de classe 1 et de classe 2 sont considérés comme des calibreurs acoustiques utilisés sur le terrain. Un calibreur de classe 1 est prévu pour être utilisé principalement avec un sonomètre de classe 1 et un calibreur de classe 2 est prévu pour être utilisé principalement avec un sonomètre de classe 2, tel qu'il est spécifié dans la EN 61672-1. Les limites de tolérance concernant les calibreurs de classe LS pour montrer la conformité aux prescriptions de la présente norme sont basées sur l'utilisation d'un microphone étalon de laboratoire tel qu'il est spécifié dans la EN 61094-1. Les limites de tolérance concernant les calibreurs acoustiques de classe 1 et 2 pour montrer la conformité aux prescriptions de la présente norme sont basées sur l'utilisation d'un microphone étalon de travail tel qu'il est spécifié dans la EN 61094-4. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 1997 et son amendement 1 (2000), dont elle constitue une révision technique.

This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2003-04-01. CENELEC members are bound to
comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European
Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration.
Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and
notified to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.
CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic,
Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta,
Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

Foreword
The text of document 29/528/FDIS, future edition 3 of IEC 60942, prepared by IEC TC 29,
Electroacoustics, in cooperation with the International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML), was
submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 60942 on
2003-04-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 60942:1998 + A1:2001.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2004-01-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2006-04-01
Annexes designated "normative" are part of the body of the standard.
In this standard, annexes A, B, C and ZA are normative.
Annex ZA has been added by CENELEC.
The most significant changes from the previous edition are: the inclusion of maximum permitted
uncertainties of measurement within the tolerance limits; the inclusion of a normative annex giving the
format for reporting results of pattern evaluation tests; changes to the class designations; specification
of the type designation of the microphone to be used to determine the class; harmonization of the
range of operating environmental conditions with those for sound level meters. Specifications for
equivalent free-field and diffuse-field levels have been removed.

In the official version, for Bibliography, the following note has to be added for the standard
indicated:
IEC 61000-6-2 NOTE Harmonized as EN 61000-6-2:2001 (modified).
