1617
The Type 1 61 7 has 50 third -octave filter
bands with centre frequencies 2 Hz to
160 kHz, 41 overlapping octave filter bands
from 2 Hz to 20 kHz, A, 6 , C, D- weighting
networks , and a Linear pass band 1 Hz to
200 kHz. The filter pass bands fulfil the
most severe standards, IEC 225 - 1966 , DIN
45651 (1 / 1-oct) and 45652 (1 / 3-oct).
and ANSI 51 . 11 - 1966 Class II (1 / 1-oct)
and Class
III (1 / 3-oct) .
In addition to facilities for filter scanning
controlled by 6 & K Level Recorders, there
is a built-in interface to the proposed IEC
standard via which full control can be exer-
cised.
An internal control system is able to
programme the averaging times of the mea-
suring i nstrument that is connected to the
Type 161 7 so that the optimum 6T product
is maintained during a frequency scan.
