Firearms Acoustic Analysis

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides a detailed description of the Larson Davis SoundTrack LxT® system, specifically designed for firearms acoustic analysis. It highlights the system's capability to measure sound pressure levels generated by firearms, both with and without suppression devices.
Specifications: The SoundTrack LxT® is equipped with a ¼” prepolarized pressure microphone (Model LXT1-QPR) capable of handling high decibel levels typical of gunfire (100 – 165 dB). It features Type 1 accuracy suitable for courtroom traceability, a large backlit display, and a 30-hour runtime on Energizer® e2® Lithium Batteries.
Features: The device offers simple setup for gunfire testing, large internal memory for storing multiple tests, and USB connectivity for data archiving and reporting. It includes utility software for custom report generation and provides 24-hour factory support and web-based training courses.
Data Reporting: The system allows for detailed reporting with selectable noise parameters such as peak, background level, and max SPL. Calibration history is also included, which is crucial for legal presentations. The LXT-ENV Interval Option facilitates documenting multiple shots in one measurement file.
Company Background: Larson Davis, a division of PCB Piezotronics, has been manufacturing precision acoustic and vibration measurement instruments since 1982. The company is ISO 9001:2000 certified and offers a standard 2-year warranty with a commitment to total customer satisfaction.

Firearms Acoustic Analysis-1

Firearms Acoustic Analysis Quantitative Measurements of Sound Pressure Levels Generated by Firearms with & Without Suppression Devices Type 1 Accuracy for Courtroom Traceability Large backlit display 30 Hours runtime on Energizer® e2® Lithium Batteries Simple setup specific to gunfire testing applications Large internal memory capable of storing multiple tests USB connection to PC for data archiving, reporting and storage Utility software provides custom report generation 24-hour factory support at no cost Web-based training courses Firearms generate high dB Levels (100 – 165 dB). Many firearm examiners are tasked with determining whether installation of a suppressor on a firearm results in a “perceptible” reduction of the sound pressure level of a gun. The Larson Davis SoundTrack LxT® provides this functionality utilizing an easy-to-use handheld platform. With the included ¼” prepolarized pressure microphone, Model LXT1-QPR, is capable of reading the very high levels typically associated with gunfire testing. These readings can quickly be organized and stored on internal memory, and exported to a PC for archiving and reporting. Reports generated include selectable noise parameters (peak, background level, max SPL, etc.) as well as calibration history of the instrument, important for courtroom presentations. All Larson Davis sound level meters are supplied with NIST-traceable calibration certificates. Yearly calibration services are offered. The Larson Davis Model LXT1-QPR is an ideal tool for gathering, analyzing and presenting detailed firearm noise data quickly, easily and concisely. Larson Davis
