Description
Type 8106 is a wide-range, piezoelectric hydrophone with preamplifier for making absolute sound measurements over the frequency range 7Hz to 80 kHz, featuring an impressive receiving sensitivity of −173dB re 1V/μPa.
- Calibration reference standards
- Ultrasonic measurements in liquids
- Cavitation measurements
- Laboratory and industrial measurements in liquids and gases
- As underwater projectors (8103, 8104 and 8105)
- Noise measurements in humid and polluted atmospheres
The preamplifier provides a 7Hz high-pass filter and an insert-voltage calibration facility, but does not allow the hydrophone to be used as a projector.
The hydrophone is built to withstanding high static pressure, the operational upper limit being 107 Pa (100 atm / 1000 m / 3250 ft.) ocean depth.
An integrated watertight connector allows quick disconnection of the cable and makes replacement and storage very easy.
