1/8" PRESSURE-FIELD MICROPHONE, EXTERNALLY POLARIZED
Pressure-field microphone designed for very high-frequency measurements in confined spaces with a frequency range of 6.5 Hz to 140 kHz.
TYPE 4138
Type 4138 is designed for high-level and very high-frequency measurements and measurements in confined spaces. Being externally polarized, Type 4138 must be used with a classical preamplifier.

Pressure-field microphones should be used for making measurements in small, closed couplers or close to hard, reflective surfaces. Such microphones are optimised to have a flat frequency response in a pressure field. Because of its small size, Type 4138 can also be used for random-incidence measurements at audio frequencies, where its frequency response is less dependent on angle of incidence.
Type 4138 requires an external polarization voltage and therefore must be used with a classical preamplifier such as Brüel & Kjær Type 2670 together with 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch Adaptor UA-0160.
The sensitivity of Type 4138 can be calibrated at 250 Hz using Pistonphone Type 4228, or at 1 kHz using Sound Calibrator Type 4231, in both cases using Adaptor DP-0774.
The pressure-field response can be measured using Electrostatic Actuator UA-0033 with Actuator Adaptor DB-0900.
