Ultrasonic Microphone USB 5 Hz to 80 kHz

The 1/4” microphone cartridge MK 301 E is designed for ultrasound measurements up to 100 kHz in research and development and also for industrial use. Some applications include audiology, the measurement of building acoustics and noise levels.

The microphone cartridge has a fixed layer of backelectret to supply the polarization voltage.

It is designed and very carefully constructed to ensure excellent long-time stability of the electroacoustical parameters. 

All essential components including the diaphragm are made of nickel and the diaphragm is bonded by a special galvanic process. 

The rear electrode is insulated from the cartridge housing by a quartz glass plate. The diaphragm is protected against mechanical damage by a protection grid. 

The equalization of the static air pressure between the inside and outside of the cartridge is by means of a capillary tube rear-vented into the preamplifier.

The cartridge uses the international standard thread 60 UNS which ensures compatibility with a wide range of calibration equipment and measurement devices available from many manufactures.

The measuring microphone cartridge MK 301 is designed for sound level meters of IEC Type 1 according to IEC 6
