Open Circuit Sensitivity
The calibration is performed by comparison with a Reference
Microphone Cartridge Type 40AG and is troceable to the
National Physical Laboratory, UK.
‘The stated sensitivity for the microphone cartridge is the open
circuit sersitivity. When used with a typical preamplifier, like
the G.R.AS. Type 26AH, the sersitivity will be O.2 0B lower.

The graph shows the frequency response of the microphone,
The response is recorded by elecrostatic actuator and is
measured relative to 250 Hz.
(See back for more information)AOEN Pressure Microohone
The 40EN is a 1” precision microphone for general
purpose acoustic measurements in couplers, at
boundaries etc. The microphone complies with
the requirements in IEC Standard 61094 part 4.
The pressure microphone is designed to measure
the sound pressure at the diaphragm. It has a flat

Sensitivity to Vibrations:
microphone itself in the sound field will change
the sound pressure. In general the sound pressure
around the microphone cartridge will increase due
to reflections and diffraction. The pressure
microphone is designed so that it measures the
pressure on the diaphragm, including the
influence of the microphone on the sound field.
