Sound Intensity - SI7 and SI7KIT
SI7 and SI7KIT provide a rugged and cost effective approach to sound intensity probes and hardware. The Side by Side configuration - described in IEC1043 - utilizes standard ACO Pacific preamps and power supplies.
The basic microphone system may be used for conventional acoustic measurements. Fully adjustable, a maximum microphone spacing of 100 mm enhances the low frequency performance of the Phased Matched microphones. Built In tripod mounting permits easy installation on a tripod or use of a camera style grip for hand-held use. The SI7KIT is a complete microphone system including: SI7 probe holder; choice of 1/2 Inch Phased Matched Pairs; 2- 4012 preamps and cables; PS9200 Power Supply; AC adaptor; and the SC1 fitted storage case.
ACO Pacific's SI7 "Simple Intensity"™ family of products offer a rugged, cost-effective approach to sound intensity, acoustical impedance, and sound absorption measurements. The SI7 probe family utilizes the traditional side by side placement of the measurement microphones described in IEC1043 (the International Sound Intensity Standard).
SI7
The SI7 probe is a two microphone probe featuring adjustable spacing from 12.5 mm to 100 mm.
The side by side approach eliminates the need for any spacers. Thus the spacing may be adjusted for optimum measurement bandwidth. The 100 mm spacing (twice that of most face to face configurations) permits lower frequencies of operation without special adaptors.
The SI7 is designed to hold ACO Pacific's standard 4012 (1/2 inch microphone preamp). This allows the user to do general acoustic measurements increasing the versatility of the equipment.
SI7BNC
The SI7BNC is designed to hold ACO Pacific's ACOTron™ 4212 preamps. Has BNC cabling - permitting IEPE power.
Sound Intensity (Acoustical Intensity) permits accurate source location and measurement of sound sources in highly reverberant environments. Applications include measurement of: fan noise, speaker cabinet sound radiation, heavy equipment noise; and profiling a horn drivers. The side by side configuration allows measurements to within a few millimeters of a working surface like speaker cones or tires.
