provided to monitor variations of RPM as a function of time.

And a complete selection of time and RPM triggering modes

is included allowing you to make virtually any rotating

machinery measurement.

Swept-Sine Measurements

Network analysis using FFT mode produces fast results but

suffers from limited dynamic range and frequency resolution.

Swept-sine mode is ideal for network analysis that involves

high dynamic range or wide frequency spans. Gain is

optimized at each point in the measurement producing up to

145 dB of dynamic range. A frequency resolution of up to

2000 points is also provided. Auto-ranging can be used with

source auto-leveling to maintain a constant input or output

level at the device under test (to test response at a specific

amplitude, for instance).

Auto-resolution ensures the fastest possible sweeps and

adjusts the frequency steps in the scan based on the DUT’s

response. Phase and amplitude changes that exceed

Octave Analysis

Real-time 1/1, 1/3, 1/12 octave analysis at frequencies up to

40 kHz (single channel), or 20 kHz (2 channel) is a standard

feature of the SR785. Octave analysis is fully compliant with

ANSI S1.11-1986 (Order 3, type 1-D) and IEC 225-1966.

Switchable analog A-weighting filters as well as A, B and C

weighting math functions are included. Averaging choices

include exponential time averaging, linear time averaging,

peak hold and equal confidence averaging. Broadband sound

level is measured and displayed as the last band in the octave

graph. Total power, impulse, peak hold and Leq are all

Expensive options are a thing of the past with the
SR785. Real-time octave analysis is standard on
every unit.

available. Exponentially averaged sound power (Leq) is

calculated according to ANSI S1.4-1983, Type 0.

Octave displays can be plotted as waterfalls with a fast 4 ms

storage interval. Once data is stored in the waterfall buffer,

the SR785 can display centile exceedance statistics for each

1/1, 1/3 or 1/12 octave band as well as for Leq.
