Meggitt Sensing Systems Debuts Endevco 8510B

By DE Editors

Meggitt Sensing Systems has introduced the Endevco model 8510B, a miniature, rugged, high-sensitivity piezoresistive pressure microphone, designed for the measurement of high-intensity sound within a variety of environments.

With available ranges of 1, 2 and 5 psig, the Endevco model 8510B offers a 300 mV full scale output and a range of at least 100 to 190 dB SPL, in a four-active arm strain bridge design that is diffused in a sculptured silicon diaphragm. This miniature pressure microphone offers integral temperature compensation from 0 to +200°F. Units also offer high resonance frequencies.

The Endevco model 8510B pressure microphone uses a 10-32 thread (metric threads available on custom order) for mounting within space constrained environments, and also permits flush mounting on flat or contoured surfaces for boundary layer measurements in flight test, wind tunnels and engine inlet acoustic studies.  A 30-in. integral cable is standard, with custom lengths available on request. The model 8510B comes standard with a vent tube, which can be vented to the ambient atmosphere or connected to a standard reference manifold.
