The Brüel & Kjær 4220 Pistonphone is precision sound calibration equipment designed for calibrating microphones and compatible sound measurement systems. The 4220 produces a nominal 124 dB sound pressure level at 250 Hz, making it suitable for laboratory and field calibration applications.
The unit uses a piston-based acoustic source to provide a defined calibration signal for compatible microphones and measurement equipment. The 4220 is associated with Brüel & Kjær of Denmark and was designed as a portable calibration instrument for precision sound measurement systems.
The 4220 is a practical addition to acoustic measurement equipment, laboratory instrumentation, or vintage Brüel & Kjær collections. Please verify the microphone adapter, barometer, batteries, calibration status, accessories, physical condition, and overall operation before purchase or use.
