Sound Level Microphone
for the
Monitoring Unit
The Sound Level Microphone for the Micromate monitoring
unit, automates noise monitoring from building activities,
construction, traffic, and mining operations. The Micromate
monitoring unit combines noise and vibration monitoring in
the same unit, making it a cost effective and flexible device for
these applications.
The Sound Level Microphone meets the requirements for IEC
61672 Class 1, including A and C weighted specifications and
has a measuring range from 30 dB to 140 dB with a Fast or Slow
response.
There are four record modes to choose from:
• Manual trigger
• Waveform (records up to 90 seconds, once triggered)
• Histogram (2 seconds to 30 minute intervals)
• Histogram-Combo (records both Histogram and Waveform
simultaneously)

  • Page 3 Calibration The Sound Level Microphone must be sent to a manufacturer certified calibration facility, or Instantel headquarters for calibration. Please visit our calibration facility locator at www.instantel.com. Instantel recommends calibrating all Sound Level Microphones once a year and provides the Next Calibration dates on the unit and sensors. The factory calibration process ensures that the microphone is performing as it was designed and accurately measuring according to the IEC 61672 Class 1 standard.
  • Page 4 (See also Section 14.4. of the Micromate Monitoring Unit Operator Manual) The microphone installation procedures are based on ISEE field practice guidelines for blasting seismographs. This section illustrates the installation procedures recommended by Instantel. Your particular monitoring activities may employ one, or a combination of all, of the following procedures.
  • Page 5 Monitoring units and sensors will have the warranty extended for a second year if they are returned to the Instantel factory for service and calibration within 30 days of the ‘Next Calibration’ date printed on the calibration label located on the product.
