High-SPL Pressure-Field Microphone Set for Application-Focused Engineering
CRY3408-S01 uses a prepolarized sensing element for free-field measurement and is supplied as a matched microphone and preamplifier set. Free-field response is relevant where the microphone measures sound arriving without dominant reflections, such as in anechoic rooms, controlled test areas and many product-noise setups. Selection should consider the expected minimum and maximum sound level, bandwidth, field type and connector.
Key Features and Benefits
- 14 mV/Pa (-77 ±3 dB re 1 V/Pa) nominal sensitivity.
- 10 Hz to 20 kHz ±2 dB frequency response.
- 70 dB to 180 dB dynamic range.
- IEPE, 10-32UNF (Microdot).
- IEC 61094-4 type WS3P.
- Operating temperature: -30°C to +70°C.
- Prepolarized design eliminates the need for an external polarisation voltage.

Integration and Configuration Considerations
The complete set includes the microphone and IEPE preamplifier. Confirm the data-acquisition input supports the stated constant-current supply and connector. TEDS is included only where shown in the specifications.
Selecting the Measurement Chain
Accurate acoustic measurement depends on the complete signal chain. Therefore, confirm the microphone field type, sensitivity, dynamic range, preamplifier, connector, cable, constant-current supply, data-acquisition input and calibration method as one system. Metromatics can help review these interfaces before quotation.
