Product catalog summary
Overview: The FP121 Sound Source is a professional acoustic measurement tool consisting of the Omni-directional Loudspeaker BP012 and the Noise Generator/Amplifier AP601. It is designed for measuring airborne sound insulation, reverberation time, and sound absorption according to ISO standards 3382, 354, and 140.
Specifications:
  • BP012 Loudspeaker: Features 12 loudspeakers in a dodecahedral housing for omni-directional sound distribution. It handles 600 W RMS, achieving 123 dB sound power level across frequencies 50-5000 Hz. It includes rubber pads, a hoisting eye, and grips for handling, and is reinforced with an aluminum core.
  • AP601 Noise Generator/Amplifier: Includes white and pink noise generation, with options for external noise input and signal processing. It offers overcharge, clip, and thermal protection, and can be controlled via keyboard or PC (cable/Bluetooth). The cooling system features automatic fan turn-off for noise measurements.
Applications:
  • Sound insulation measurement in buildings (ISO 140)
  • Reverberation time measurement (ISO 3382)
  • Sound absorption measurement in reverberation rooms (ISO 354)
Main Characteristics:
  • Omni-directional radiation pattern
  • 123 dB sound power level
  • Noise generator with white, pink, and pink filtered noise (1/3 octave band 50-5000 Hz)
  • Remote control via cable or Bluetooth
  • Forced ventilation cooling system with automatic fan turn-off
Technical Specifications:
  • BP012: Complies with ISO 140 and ISO 3382, with a frequency range of 50-5000 Hz, 600 W RMS power, and 6 Ω impedance. Dimensions: 40 cm diameter, 14.5 kg weight.
  • AP601: Output power varies with impedance (940 W at 4 Ω, 680 W at 6 Ω, 550 W at 8 Ω), frequency response 20-20000 Hz, and total harmonic distortion <0.05% at <1 kHz. Dimensions: 47 x 35.7 x 17.6 cm, 12 kg weight.
Accessories:
  • Supplied: Flight case (FL012), loudspeaker cable (CN012), USB cable (CN2US).
  • Optional: Tripods (TR012, TR014), façade measurement accessory (AT002), carrying bag (BM012), Bluetooth device (BT002).

Sound pressure source-1

FP121 Sound Source Omni-Directional Loudspeaker Noise Generator/Amplifier AP601 The FP121 Sound Source has two well defined parts: the Omni-directional Loudspeaker BP012 and the Noise Generator / Amplifier AP601. The FP121 has been designed to satisfy the needs of professionals specialising in building and room acoustics. The FP121 allows you to measure airborne sound insulation, reverberation time and sound absorption in accordance with the standards: ISO 3382, ISO 354 and ISO 140. The BP012 has 12 loudspeakers mounted on a dodecahedral housing. This ensures a complete omni-directional radiation diagram; that is to say, sound is radiated in a spherical distribution, as is required by the standards ISO 140 and ISO 3382. The BP012 handles an electrical power of 600 W RMS developing 123 dB of sound power level in the third octave bands with centre frequency between 50 and 5,000 Hz. The loudspeaker has been designed to supply the maximum power for over an hour. To facilitate handling the BP012 includes 5 rubber pads for floor mounting, 1 hoisting eye for aerial suspension and 2 grips for ergonomic handling. The BP012 is internally reinforced with an aluminium core that makes it robust and allows it to be adapted for the TR012 tripod. The AP601 is comprised of a White and Pink noise generator and a power amplifier. The AP601 has been especially designed to generate the signal to be reproduced by the BP012 . Thanks to its internal noise output and its external noise input, the AP601 can be used as a noise generator + amplifier, just as a noise generator or just as an amplifier. Also allows you to insert between the noise generator and the amplifier supplementary signal processing equipments as equalizers or compressors. The AP601 has an overcharge, clip and thermal protection. The AP601 can be operated directly from the keyboard or by a PC with the included software. This communication with the PC can be done through cable or through BluetoothTM , wireless. The forced ventilation cooling system of the AP601 turns off the fan during one minute after the signal reproduction is stopped. This is efficient for the background noise measurements. Applications • Measurement of sound insulation in buildings and of building elements ISO 140 • Measurement of the reverberation time of rooms ISO 3382 • Measurement of sound absorption in a reverberation room ISO 354 Main characteristics • Complete omni-directional radiation diagram • 123 dB sound power level • White, Pink and Pink filtered (1/3 octave band 50 – 5000 Hz) noise generator • Remote control through cable or BluetoothTM (integrated on the AP601) • Forced ventilation cooling system with automatic fan turn off: Ideal for background noise measurements D_FP121_v0010_20110323_ENG
