Nose Cone Protects Microphone and Ensures Sound Measurement Quality

July 13, 2006, Depew, NY, USA– The Vibration Division of PCB® Piezotronics, Inc. introduces a new accessory model to its acoustic product line. Model 079B21 is a Nose Cone designed to be used with ½” (6 mm) condenser test and measurement microphones. The 079B21’s aerodynamic shape is designed to minimize noise due to wind and other high-speed laminar flows, while permitting the sound intended to be measured to pass through. Another advantage of the nose cone is its ability to protect and minimize damage to the diaphragm due to sand, dirt and other contaminates that might be picked up and directed toward the microphone by the wind. Typical applications are wind tunnel testing and outdoor environmental testing.

In addition to this product, PCB offers a complete line of modern prepolarized (0V) and traditional externally polarized (200V) microphones to go along with our value oriented array electret microphones and acoustic related accessories, to service most sound pressure, NVH or holography, acoustic test and measurement application.
