Rugged industrial microphone - High SPL - IP55 - IEPE

Microphone is water-resistant and dustproof.

Measuring range up to 170 dB

The MI15-HLSW-TNC microphone is specially designed for harsh industrial environments.

Its robust stainless steel housing with a stainless steel mesh at the sound inlet offers excellent protection against electromagnetic interference, particles and splashing water.

It is suitable for high sound pressure levels of up to 179 dB, such as those that occur during explosions, arc flashes and gunshots.

The MI15 microphone has a short overall length of 67 mm and a TNC connector. 

The power supply is provided by an IEPE constant current source 4mA. 

The MI15 microphone can be calibrated with a microphone calibrator at 114 dB SPL and a 1/4″ adapter.

Water and dust protection mesh
The left side, with its fine-mesh stainless steel fabric,
serves as a dust, water and EMC barrier.

Microphone Identify Defects During Welding

Sonibel Instruments Explanatory Demo with CPO

Sonibel catches weld defects during welding, giving welders the option to rework them on the spot and minimize repair costs.

  • Fewer Inspection Bottlenecks Pass inspections the first time and keep projects moving forward.
  • Reduced Rework Time Address defects immediately rather than waiting for NDT.
  • Less Downstream Delays Minimize the cascading effects of failed inspections on your project timeline.
