3.4 Calibrating the instrument

The CEL-63x is a precision measuring instrument. You should calibrate it
before each measurement run and again after each measurement run so that
you can be certain its measurements are accurate.

To calibrate the instrument you will need a suitable calibrator that generates a
1 kHz reference tone. Depending on the type of calibrator, the reference tone
can have a nominal sound pressure level of either 94 dB or 114 dB. Check the
information supplied by the calibrator manufacturer to find the exact sound
pressure level that the calibrator generates.
