Class 1 Microphone
The outdoor microphone M2230-WP fulfills in combination with the XL2 Sound Level Meter the IEC 61672 Class 1 as well as the ANSI S1.4 Type 1 requirements for vertical sound incidence. For compliance with horizontal sound incidence a spectral correction is employed.
Effective outdoor protection
The 90 mm wind screen protects the M2230 measurement microphone from rain and dust while reducing wind-induced noise by approximately 15 dB. The seamless design of the water-repellent membrane under the wind screen ensures perfect protection from rain and dust.
Robust design / Easy calibration
The upper section of the weather protection kit is snap-on mounted and can thus be easily removed by hand for convenient and quick calibration of the measurement microphone.
