MPA417 1/4-inch Free-field Microphone

MPA417 is the 1/4-inch free-field microphone developed by BSWA and suitable for measurement in free-field and semi free-field without reflection. It is prepolarized microphone without external polarization voltage, and equipped with built-in ICCP power supply preamplifier, which suitable for array, impedance tube and common electroacoustic measurement.

MPA417 is front-vent and can measure the sound pressure level up to 150 dB in the frequency range of 20 Hz ~ 20 kHz (±5 dB). Each MPA417 passed a high sound pressure test before leaving the factory to verify its total distortion ≤ 3% when the rated maximum sound pressure level is reached.

MPA417 is suitable for applications which need a large number of microphones with critical cost requirements, such as array applications including near-field acoustic holography (NAH), beamforming, etc.

BSWA can perform phase-matching of microphones before delivery for the users who have phase requirements. If the phase is not required when ordering, the microphone phase will not be tested and matched.

Each MPA417 is supplied with an individual calibration data chart including sensitivity, frequency response and so on.
