Sound Level metre

A sound level metre measures sound pressure level. It has several frequency-weighted decibel (dB) scales (A, B, C) to cover different portions of the range of measured loudness. Sound level metres indicate RMS sound, unless the measurements are qualified as instantaneous or peak sound level.
