## Important notes

The Testo 816-1 is an IEC 61672-1 Class 2 / ANSI S1.4 Type 2 instrument, not a universal legal-compliance determination. Use the correct A or C weighting, time weighting, placement, and documented procedure for the question. Check calibration with a suitable acoustic calibrator and obtain any required traceable certificate. Do not use the meter as hearing protection or expose people to hazardous sound while measuring. Tax, shipping, and delivery dates differ.

Japan tax-free eligibility, actual local sales tax, daily FX, shipping, card fees, warranty, and import charges can change the final cost.
