SV 200 USER MANUAL 6

1 INTRODUCTION

The SV 200 is a unique Noise Monitoring Terminal (NMT) which includes in single portable housing: outdoor microphone, sound level meter and 1/1 & 1/3 octave analyzer, advanced logger integrating controller and communication systems. Using the most recent and State of the Art technological achievements, the design of high integration outdoor system became available. In practice this means that system can be easily transported and installed by one person in field.

The instrument is an ideal choice for unattended permanent and short period environmental noise measurements together with weather conditions monitoring. Instrument can be used for community and airport noise monitoring in the same time.

The architecture of the system allow easy communication, data download and configuration of the system using PC or any mobile device which has network (internet) access to SV 200 and web browser.

The SV 200 meets Class 1 requirements of IEC 61672:2013 standard. NMT provides broad band results with all required weighting filters, 1/1 octave & 1/3 octave spectra with complete statistical analysis.

Instrument can be easily calibrated in field using acoustic calibrator. Built-in electrostatic actuator can be activated remotely or periodically in automated mode for self-testing.

The SV 200 enables great logging capability which includes time history of broad band results and spectra with two selectable logging steps down to 2 milliseconds like also audio records on trigger. Data are stored on microSD card and can be transferred over the internet on demand or in automatic mode to FTP server or any PC.

SvanPC++ and SvanPC++_RC software provides advanced modes of communication, files download, data visualization and measurement results exporting. SvanPC++_EM environmental monitoring software is dedicated for measurement data management, advanced data processing, analysis, visualization and reporting.

Thanks to robust casing, protection against overheating & humidity condensation, built-in rechargeable battery, this instrument is excellent for permanent installation in all environmental conditions.

2.5 Power supply installation

The power supply may be installed in the following two ways:

1. On a wall, for example, using 4 anchors.

2. On a mast, using 2 band clips.

The outdoor installation requires the power supply to be installed vertically, with the protective plate facing up. The power supply must be installed on below the SV 200 device. The distance should be as great as possible.

Notice: Choosing the assembling place one should take into account that the cable connecting the power supply to the device is 2,5 meters long and must not be extended.

2.6 Assembling of the meteorological beam (optional) on the mast

The meteorological beam should be installed on the mast, at least 2 m above the ground. The distance from the beam to the SV 200 device should be as great as possible, but it is limited to the length of the SC258 cable. There must not be any cables or wires between the clamping ring of the meteorological beam and the mast.

After fixing the fastening place:

1. Unscrew two knobs which hold the beam fastening clamp of the meteorological beam.

2. Place the beam at the fixed place.

3. Install the beam to the mast using beam fastening clamp and two knobs.

2.8 Finishing

Attach the cables to the mast and the meteorological beam. Use some band clips at intervals not greater

than 50 cm (20”) on the mast and the cable holders delivered with the kit on the meteorological beam.

Lay the cables so that they are loose at the ends. The loose cable should hang a bit lower than the connector to avoid accumulation of rainwater.

2.9 Important information

The SA209 foam protects microphone from wind and rain.

Notice: If SV 200 is used continuously for a long period of time it is recommended

to replace SA209 foam at least once a year.

During continuous usage the SA209 foam is exposed to different weather conditions with possibility of

causing mechanical damage to the foam’s structure. Therefore it is recommended, at least once a

quarter (3 months), to check the condition of the foam by examining the surface for cracks by squeezing the foam. If cracks or holes are observed, the SA209 foam must be replaced.

SA209 foam must be replaced whenever squeezing it causes severing of small pieces of its surface.
