Purpose and Audience

The CEM DT-8850 is a Type 2 sound level meter built for general-purpose noise measurement. It suits technicians, facility managers and hobbyists who need reliable readings in factories, schools, offices, airports or home studios.

Standards and Upgrade Path

The meter meets IEC 61672-1 Type 2 standards and provides 1.4dB accuracy across a 30 to 130 dB range. It replaces simpler meters that lack the Low and High weighting ranges of 35 to 100 dB and 65 to 130 dB respectively, making the jump worthwhile when compliance-grade data is required.

Fit and Limitations

This unit suits users who need A-weighting, Max Hold, Data Hold and analog AC/DC outputs for recorder connection. It is not for buyers who require a broader frequency span than 31.5Hz to 8kHz, a different weighting curve, or a Class 1 instrument for legal enforcement.

Questions about this item

Does the DT-8850 need a specific battery type to power on?

The meter ships without batteries because air-freight rules prohibit them; buy standard cells locally before first use.

How do I verify the DT-8850 is reading correctly before a session?

Use the built-in calibration check function to confirm the 1.4 dB accuracy before each measurement set.

Will the microphone capsule on the DT-8850 need periodic replacement?

The capsule is rated for three years of parts coverage; plan a replacement or recalibration around that interval.
