Type 4957  10 KHZ Array Microphone

Type 4957 10 KHZ Array Microphone

Array Microphone Type 4957 is a ¼” prepolarized microphone suited for use in systems requiring a large number of microphones, for example, beamforming arrays, STSF measurements, and non-stationary STSF measurements. These microphones have specified and stable phase-matching over wide ranges of temperature and humidity.

USE SCENARIOS

  • Measurements using:– Spatial Transformation of Sound Fields (STSF) Type 7688– Non-stationary STSF Type 7712– Beamforming Type 7768
  • Hand-held array measurements
  • Simultaneous recording of time signals in medium to large microphone arrays, for example, simulated pass-by measurements
  • Cost-effective in-car measurements

The microphone preamplifier is of the industry standard CCLD type allowing the use of only one cheap coaxial cable for signal, power supply, and TEDS.

A rugged protection grid provides an integrated heat shield. The microphone is front-vented for pressure equalization.
