Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Extech SL130 Sound Level Alert. Designed for

wall mount, desk, tripod mount or hand held operation, this meter meets ANSI and IEC

Type 2 Sound Level Meter standards. Included is a High/Low Limit Set Point with 4 two

color high intensity LED limit exceed indicators and a large OVER indication when the set

level is exceeded. An Alarm Output can be used in conjunction with the optional Alarm

Module Kit to power a larger or a remote indicating device such as a “QUIET” sign.

Professional features include programmable A/C Weighting and Fast/Slow Response time,

Max Memory with time stamp, and a Clock display. The microphone can be rotated 180

degrees to accommodate any meter location or it can be placed at a remote location using

the optional Remote Microphone Cable. A programmable ON/OFF time extends battery life

to 30 days when programmed 8 hours per day. The bright LED’s are functional only when

the AC power adaptor is used. Careful use of this meter will provide years of reliable

service.

Sound Level Monitor Operation

Measurement Considerations

1. Use a windscreen to cover the microphone in windy conditions.

2. Calibrate the meter often, especially if the meter has been idle for a long period of time.

3. Do not store/operate the meter in areas of high temperature or humidity.

4. Keep the meter and the microphone dry.

5. Avoid severe vibration when using the meter.

6. Remove the battery when the meter will be stored for long periods of time.

Initial Configuration

1. Connect the AC adaptor to the side or rear AC adaptor connector

OR Install 8 AA batteries

2. Setting the TIME

a) Press and Hold the Time SET button until the hours display

begins to flash.

b) Press the Time up arrow button until the hour is set.

c) Press the SET button. The minutes display will flash. Adjust as needed.

d) Press the SET button to step through and the arrow button to adjust;

A/C Frequency Weighting

Change the Frequency Weighting by pressing the 'A/C' button. The 'A' or 'C' icon will

appear on the display.

With ‘A’ weighting selected, the frequency response of the meter is similar to the response

of the human ear. ‘A’ weighting is commonly used for environmental or hearing

conservation programs such as OSHA regulatory testing and noise ordinance law

enforcement. ‘C’ weighting is a much flatter response and is suitable for the sound level

analysis of machines, engines, etc.

Most noise measurements are performed using 'A' Weighting and SLOW Response.

Slow/ Fast Response

Press the button to select Fast or Slow response as desired. F or S will appear in the

bottom of the LCD display.

Select FAST to capture noise peaks and noises that occur very quickly. Select the SLOW

response to monitor a sound source that has a consistent noise level or to average quickly

changing levels.

Select Slow response for most applications.

Version 3.1 1/06

Range Selection

Slide the Range switch to the 30-80, 60-110 or the 80-130 position.

The selected range will be indicated on the LCD bargraph. If the

measured dB level exceeds the range selected “OL” will be

displayed. If the measured dB level is below the selected range “- - -“ will be

displayed.

Normally, select the range in which the upper dB level is greater than any

expected sound pressure level. The 60 to 110dB range is the most commonly

used range. Use the 30 to 80dB range in quieter areas such as offices and

classrooms.

Note: When the range is changed the Max display may indicate an overload “OL”. Press

the MAX RESET button to clear the MAX display.

High Limit Set

Press the up or down LIMIT arrow buttons to set the High/Low limit

set=point as displayed on the LCD. If the measured dB level

exceeds the set limit, the indication will appear in the display

and the over limit signal will appear at the alarm output connector.

The display indication and output signal will remain active as long as the sound pressure

level exceeds the set limit.

High/Low LED Alert

The four LEDs are used to alert users when a sound level either exceeds or goes below

the Limit set-point. This feature is available only while the AC adaptor is used to power the

meter. It is disabled under battery power.

The LEDs will provide a steady or flashing colored indication depending on the setting of

the side panel ALARM and Alert switch settings.

The three Alert switch positions are: (1) RED, (2) RED-GREEN, (3) GREEN

Version 3.1 1/06

MAX Hold

The MAX display indicates and holds the highest dB level measured

since the meter was turned on or since the Max Reset button was

pressed. The time and date of the max reading is also displayed.

To clear the display and start a new measurement session, press the

front panel MAX RESET button. If the measured level exceeds the

maximum for the range selected the MAX display will indicate “OL” (overload).

Programmable OFF/ON/AUTO time

The meter is powered by 8 AA batteries or via an AC adaptor for permanent installations.

Continuous battery life is approximately 240 hours (10 days). By programming the ON/OFF

time, the battery life can be greatly extended (30 days assuming an 8 hour day). The ON

and OFF times are programmed as described in the initial configuration

paragraph. The meter will operate continuously with the power switch in

the ON position. The ON/OFF time will be controlled by the meter when

the power switch is set to the AUTO position.

Calibration

The sound level meter should be calibrated on a regular basis

to assure that the meter’s performance and microphone

sensitivity has not change. Some operational directives

require daily calibration checks (OSHA). Extech offers several

acoustic calibrators to perform the calibration.

1. Set the meter to the 60 to 110dB or 80 to 130dB range.

2. Place the external calibrator over the Sound Level

Monitor's microphone and turn the Calibrator on.

3. The meter should read close to the calibrator's dB output

level. Typical Calibrator output levels are 94dB and 114dB.

4. If the meter is within ± 0.2 dB of the calibrator’s output, no

adjustment is necessary.

5. Adjust the calibration pot on the rear of the meter to the

proper level.

Meter Placement

The meter can be used Handheld, Wall mounted, Desk mounted or Tripod mounted. For

wall mount operation, orient the microphone perpendicular to the wall to minimize the

affect of acoustic reflections. For desk mounting, extend the rear legs and lock in place

with the hinged locks. The tripod mounting nut is located on the bottom of the unit.

Version 3.1 1/06

Remote Microphone (optional)

The optional 15’ remote microphone

cable can be used to place the microphone in one

location while viewing the dB levels and/or generating a high limit

alarm at another location. To remove the microphone, unscrew

the holding collar and lift the microphone off the connector. The

extension cable can then be plugged into the matching

connectors. Calibration should be performed after the cable is

installed.

Alarm Output (optional)

The alarm output drives the optional Remote Alarm Relay Module (cable and relay) when

the LIMIT set point is exceeded. The relay module can be used to power external warning

signs, “QUIET” signs or other indicating devices when the sound level is higher than the

programmed limit. Refer to the manual supplied with the module for connection

information.
