In Tune with Precision takes you into the fascinating world of calibrations within sound and vibration. We explore the entire measurement chain: from sensors such as microphones and accelerometers, through processing in acquisition systems or handheld analyzers, to control hardware such as calibrators. Every link influences the final measurement result. Purchasing accurate hardware and software is essential, but only with periodic calibration can this accuracy be maintained for years.
How do we ensure that calibrations include the correct tests to assess the object being inspected? What do traceability and accreditation mean? What are the various standards used? And what happens if a component in the measurement chain deviates—what are the consequences for the final result and measurement uncertainty?
During this lecture you will receive clear answers to these questions, illustrated with theory, practical examples and various calibration certificates.
