New Model 379A01 Array Stand Accommodates up to Sixteen Microphones

February 1, 2006, Depew, NY, USA – The Vibration Division of PCB Piezotronics, Inc. (PCB®) announces the addition of the Model 379A01 Microphone Array Stand to its growing line of acoustic measurement products.

The Model 379A01 array stand includes the grid and all necessary configuration hardware for proper mounting of a 16-microphone array with 8 cm spacing. To optimize design flexibility, the 379A01 can be used as 1 x 16; 4 x 4; or 2 x 8 grid configurations; arrays are adjustable both horizontally and vertically; rotated; or can be tilted forward and backward. A built-in inclinometer attached to the grid base enables the user to verify angles used for measurement, and ensures any subsequent measurement configurations can be replicated identically. Associated microphones, power supplies and cabling can be purchased separately or as a kit, to satisfy system requirements. The kit contains the microphones and sufficient 6.1 m (20-ft) microphone cables, for connection to an included patch panel and accompanying 7.6 m (25 ft) ribbon cable.

PCB offers a variety of acoustic measurement products, including modern prepolarized, traditionally externally polarized, array, probe, low-profile surface, and special purpose condenser microphones. Microphone products are complemented by an assortment of preamplifiers, signal conditioners, A-weighting filters, handheld calibrators, and accessories.
