Meggitt Sensing Systems, a Meggitt group division, has introduced the Endevco model EM46AQ, a combined 1/2 in. random incidence microphone and iTEDS enabled preamplifier set (per IEEE 1451.4-2004), designed to support larger channel count precision acoustic measurement requirements within automotive and aircraft interior noise analysis and NVH-related applications.

The Endevco model EM46AQ comes in a preassembled kit, consisting of a microphone cartridge and iTEDS-enabled preamplifier, both constructed of stainless steel. According to the company, units are assembled within a clean room environment to avoid contamination of the contacts and are calibrated together to form a reliable acoustic measurement system. These combined units are intended to be fully repairable.

With a sensitivity of 50 mV/Pa, a frequency response from 3.15 Hz to 16 kHz and a wide dynamic range of 17 dBA to 135 dB, the Endevco model EM46AQ microphone set is designed according to IEC 61094 Class 1 guidelines. The incorporation of iTEDS allows for the microphone and preamplifier to be recognized by any smart-transducer compatible input module. When connected, the analyzer will derive information such as microphone type, serial number and sensitivity, which can be read by the application software for test setups.
