• SA277D Environment compensation filter that improves the complete instrument
frequency response in the free field for the reference acoustic
wave incidence angle 90 deg
• SA277D Airport compensation filter that improves the complete instrument
frequency response in the free field for the reference acoustic
wave incidence angle 0 deg
Note: For the conformance of acoustical tests with SA 277D, the Environment or Airport
compensation must be switched on.
Statement of performance
SVAN 958A working as the SLM with SA 277D meets requirements of IEC 61672:2013 for the Class 1
Group X instruments.
Linear operating ranges with the SA277D Environment filter
The starting point at which tests of level linearity shall begin is 94.0 dB for the frequencies specifies below. For
A weighting linearity test at 31.5 Hz and 12.5 kHz, the starting point is 69 dB.
