Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides detailed information on GRAS's range of ultra-thin precision microphones designed for aeroacoustic measurements. These microphones are ideal for boundary layer and turbulence noise quantification, offering high precision in confined spaces.

Ultra-Thin Precision (UTP) Microphones
These microphones are characterized by their small form factor and high precision, suitable for low-boundary layer testing. They feature fast mounting, easy in-situ verification, and a wide frequency and dynamic range. Key models include:
  • GRAS 48LA: High-pressure, frequency range 20 Hz - 20 kHz, dynamic range 64 dB(A) - 184 dB.
  • GRAS 48LX-1: Medium pressure, frequency range 20 Hz - 40 kHz, dynamic range 54 dB(A) - 170 dB.
  • GRAS 48LX-4/8: Line arrays, medium pressure, frequency range 20 Hz - 20 kHz, dynamic range 54 dB(A) - 170 dB.

Surface Microphones
Designed for in-situ boundary layer testing with non-invasive mounting. They integrate a preamplifier with TEDS and offer a wide frequency and dynamic range. Models include:
  • GRAS 40LA/40LS: Frequency range 10 Hz - 20 kHz, dynamic range 56 dB(A) - 178 dB (40LA).
  • GRAS 40PS-1: Frequency range 10 Hz - 12 kHz, dynamic range 27 dB(A) - 145 dB.

Flush-Mount Microphones
These are designed for aeroacoustic applications with minimal protrusion. They include:
  • GRAS 47AX: Frequency range 5 Hz - 12.5 kHz, dynamic range 22 dB(A) - 150 dB.
  • GRAS 47BX: Frequency range 10 Hz - 25 kHz, dynamic range 44 dB(A) - 166 dB.
  • GRAS 47DX: Frequency range 10 Hz - 100 kHz, dynamic range 52 dB(A) - 174 dB.

Accessories
The document lists various accessories for mounting, verification, and calibration of microphones, including adapters, fairings, and nose cones designed to reduce flow noise and vibrations.

Contact Information
GRAS has subsidiaries and distributors in over 40 countries, with contact details provided for Denmark, USA, and China.

Measurement Microphones for Aeroacoustics-3

This line of acoustic sensors combines the high precision and reliability of GRAS measurement microphones with the need for fitting sensors into confined spaces and narrow structures. With an installation height of less than 10 mm, they can be integrated into virtually any design without sacrificing aerodynamic properties. > High-precision measurement microphones > Very low installation height > Integrated preamplifier with plug and measure functionality (TEDS) > Wide linear frequency range and dynamic range ^" Flush-mount GRAS 47AX Frequency range Dynamic range Sensitivity Venting M" Flush-mount...

Measurement Microphones for Aeroacoustics-4

The GRAS nose cones have a better in-flow noise rejection compared to other designs. The blunt tip design is ideal at relatively low wind speeds and in places where it is of interest to make near-field measurements in the flow. > High induced flow-noise reduction > Low acoustic attenuation > Lightweight design to reduce vibrations and wake noise > Single or array mounting > Standard microphone accommodation RA0020 for /4” standard microphone sets RA0022 for K” standard microphone sets RA0173 for 34” standard microphone sets ACCESSORIES FOR UTP MICROPHONES MOUNTING RA4810 Hard Fairing for 48LA/48LX-1...
