DESIGN AND ROBUSTNESS

The shape of the microphone front ensures excellent microphone performance when flush-mounted and the laser-welded diaphragm on the microphone housing ensures that the sensitivity is resistant to rough handling during flush mounting. The robustness of the microphone makes it capable of withstanding the IEC 68-2-32 1 metre drop.

CALIBRATION

The sensitivity can be calibrated at 250 Hz using Pistonphone Type 4228 with ¼-inch Adaptor DP 0775. The pressure-field response can be measured using Actuator UA 0033 with Adaptor DB 0264. The pressure-field response is equal to the actuator response.
