    Definition instrument used as an accurate and stable reference source for calibrating a sound level meter before use Reference "COM-EN, based on: Brown, M.V. ""The Medical Equipment Dictionary"". Chapman and Hall Ltd. London 1986. http://home.btconnect.com/MalcolmBrown/entries/PISTONPHONE.html [23.5.2013]"
    Comment The device is normally battery powered and comprises a small electric motor which drives a piston situated at one end of a small (a few millilitres) cavity into which the microphone of the sound level meter is introduced. The known and accurate excursion of the piston allows a high and constant sound pressure level to be achieved. A similar device, known as a sound level calibrator, is used for the same purpose but comprises an audio oscillator (1 kHz) and a small loudspeaker rather than a motor and piston. In addition to calibrating sound level meters they are also required for the calibration of a hearing aid test box and they are commonly found in audiology or medical physics departments.

    Comment Il se présente généralement sous la forme d'une cavité dans laquelle on introduit le microphone à étalonner (le diamètre de la cavité et celui du microphone doivent correspondre). Le pistonphone émet un signal sonore à une fréquence fixe, qui va induire une pression vibratoire au niveau du microphone donnée par le constructeur du pistonphone. Les pistonphones les plus utilisés fonctionnent autour des 250 Hz et induisent une pression de l'ordre de 100 dBa.
