1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When taking measurements:
Avoid doing measurements in humid or wet places - make sure that humidity is
within the limits indicated in section “environmental conditions”.
Avoid doing measurements in presence of explosive gas, combustible gas,
steam or excessive dust.
The following symbols are used:
Caution: refer to the user’s manual. An incorrect use may damage the
tester or its components
The instrument conforms to the CE standard
1.1. Preliminary Description
ST-109 is a high performance conforms to international IEC61672 Class 1
ST-107(S )is a high performance conforms to international IEC61672 Class 2
Integrating Sound Level Meter. It may also survey: SPL(Lxyp),
Lxmax,Lxmin,,Lxeq, SEL (LAE)Lcpeak, RT60, , three kind of at the same time
frequency weighting (A, C, Z) and three kind of at the same time weighting (F, S,
I) may simultaneously survey many kinds of appraisal target, the dynamic range
is bigger than 100dB, it does not need to select the measuring range when doing
measurements, the operation is simple.
Applications: Evaluation of environmental noise, Measurements of noise at
workplaces, Assessment of product noise.
1.2. Note
CAUTION
Does not observe the warning and/or operation instruction, it’s
possible to damage the instrument either its components or the
operator
Do not operate the instrument at temperature and humidity environment beyond
to reference conditions of chapter 11.2.1.
Keep the microphone dry and avoid severe vibration.
Wind blowing across the microphone would bring additional extraneous noise.
Once using the instrument in the presence of wind, it must mount the
windscreen to prevent the undesirable signals. (Refer to Fig.1)

2. PREPARATION FOR USE
2.1. Initial
The instrument has been checked mechanically and electrically prior to shipment.
Take care to ensure the instrument reaches you undamaged.
However, it is wise to carry out a rapid check in order to detect any possible
damage that may cause during transport. If its damage, claims to the dealer
immediately.
Check the packaging content according to packing list reported in 11.3.1chapter .In
case of discrepancies, contact the dealer immediately.
In the event of re-shipment of the instrument please follow the instructions reported
in chapter.
2.2. Supply Voltage
The instrument is powered by batteries. When batteries are low, a low battery
indication is displayed.
To replace/insert batteries as the instructions indicated in chapter.
The instrument can also be powered by the external power supply. The external
power supply’s voltage is 6~9V and its maximum output current is 500mA.
CAUTION
If you don’t use the instrument for a long period, please take the
batteries out to prevent eventual acid leakage from damaging the
instrument
2.3. Calibration
The instrument complies with the technical specifications contained in this manual
and such compliance is guaranteed for 1 year. The instrument is maybe need
