MP451S 1/4-inch Pressure-field Microphone

MP451S is the 1/4-inch pressure-field microphone developed by BSWA. It is suitable for the pressure field environments such as in a cavity, near a hard reflective surface, or installed flush with a hard surface. It is prepolarized microphone without external polarization voltage, and suitable for ICCP powered MA411A/B preamplifier (optional TEDS).


MP451S is side-vented and can measure the sound pressure level up to 168 dB in the frequency range of 8 Hz ~ 70 kHz.


MP451S has a redesigned microphone structure with nickel metal diaphragm and high nickel alloy housing with the same expansion coefficient, which can effectively improve the emperature stability of the microphone and have excellent corrosion resistance.


MP451S can choose a preamplifier with TEDS to support data acquisition equipment to read microphone information directly, including microphone model, serial number, sensitivity, etc. BSWA microphone supports the IEEE 1451.4 standard. The v0.9 version is used by default to be compatible with more data acquisition equipment. The v1.0 version can also be selected according to user’s requirements.


Each MP451S is supplied with an individual calibration data chart including sensitivity, frequency response and so on.
