The small size and durable aluminum construction make it easy to be transported and used for estimating the
properties of walls, ceilings, installed building materials, road surfaces, different ground surfaces, interiors of vehi-
cles, etc.
The inner diameter of each tube corresponds to the effective measurement frequency range. A larger diameter
tube is suitable for measurements in the lower frequencies while a small diameter tube can measure in the higher
frequencies. The diameter of the tube also indicates the diameter of the samples needed for measurements when
placed inside the sample holders.

Measurement Capabilities and Standards
The SW series impedance tubes all use the transfer function method for
absorption and transmission loss testing.
The systems are available in two different designs conforming to either ISO or
ASTM test standards. Impedance tubes designed according to ASTM specifica-
tions can measure acoustic absorption according to ASTM E1050 and trans-
mission loss according to ASTM E2611.
The following tables display various models available for systems conforming
to ISO and ASTM test standards:

Ease of Use
The simple design of BSWA SW series impedance tubes keeps the set up
time to a minimum, ensuring that more time is spent on actual measure-
ments.
