3595 Sound Intensity Probe Kit

The Hand-held Sound Intensity System consisting of 2260 Investigator™ and Sound Intensity Software BZ 7205 and Sound Intensity Probe Kit Type 3595 is supplied in a carrying case.

Part of the Hand-held Sound Intensity System

The measurement of sound intensity (sound power per unit area) is increasingly being used as a routine technique in a wide range of noise investigations. The method permits the determination of sound power from direct measurement of sound intensity, even in situations where pressure-based measurements would be impossible. Since the method does not require special acoustic environments, such as reverberation and anechoic chambers, significant savings can also be made.
Type 3595 is a two-microphone probe kit for measuring sound intensity. Specially designed for use with 2260 Investigator™ Hand-held Sound Intensity System, the probe set includes the 1/2" Sound Intensity Microphone Pair Type 4197 enabling 1/3-octave centre frequency measurements between 20 Hz and 6.3 kHz. Extending the upper 1/3-octave centre frequency to 10 kHz can be achieved using pressure correction. Used with 1/2" Microphone pair Type 4197, the probe complies with IEC 1043 Class 1. These 1 /2" microphones feature patented phase-corrector units making precision low-frequency phase matching a practical possibility, leading to increased measurement range and accuracy.
