BRUEL & KJAER 2225 User Manual

The DC amplifier drives the dis-
play and the DC output, which is in-
tended for use with level recorders,
providing a DC voltage proportional
to the dB value of the measured sig-
nal with the same dynamic range
as the instrument.
2226 only
An overload detector monitors
both the input to the attenuator and
the output from the A-weighting ne-
twork, and the display flashes at
full scale if an overload is detected.
In addition, on this instrument, the
maximum sound pressure level is
held on the display until reset, con-
tinous operation of the display be-
ing obtained when the "DC Output"
plug is inserted, or when the "DC
Output" push-button supplied is de-
pressed.
