Description
Type 8105 is a robust spherical hydrophone usable down to 1000 m ocean depth with excellent directional characteristics.
- 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
A small, spherical transducer for making absolute sound measurements over the frequency range 0.1Hz to 160 kHz with a receiving sensitivity of −205 dB re 1V/μPa. It is rugged, being capable of withstanding pressures of up to 107 Pa (100 atm.; 1000 m (3250 ft.) ocean depth).
This hydrophone has excellent directional characteristics: at 100 kHz, it is omnidirectional over 360° in the x-y (radial) plane and 270° in the x-z (axial) plane.
