Product catalog summary
Overview: The MK 255 is a 1/2" microphone capsule designed for free-field applications, optimized for accurate acoustic measurements with 0-degree incidence. It is compliant with WS2F according to IEC 61094-4 standards and suitable for Type 1 sound level meters as per IEC 61672.
Specifications:
  • Frequency Range: 3.5 Hz to 20 kHz with ±2.0 dB accuracy.
  • Open-circuit Sensitivity: 50 mV/Pa, equivalent to -26 dB ±1.5 dB re 1 V/Pa.
  • Maximum Sound Pressure Level (SPL): 149 dB for peak, 146 dB at 3% THD at 1 kHz RMS.
  • Inherent Noise: 15 dBA with MV 204 preamplifier.
  • Polarization Voltage: 0 V.
  • Capacitance: 17 pF at 1 kHz.
  • Operating Temperature Range: -50 °C to +100 °C.
  • Temperature Coefficient: ≤0.01 dB/K.
  • Static Pressure Coefficient: -0.00001 dB/Pa.
  • Dimensions: Diameter 12.7 mm (without grid), 13.2 mm (with grid); Length 16.4 mm; Weight 7.5 g.
Design and Construction: The microphone capsule is made of stainless steel and features a rear-vented design for static air pressure equalization via a capillary to the preamplifier.
Delivery and Accessories: The MK 255 is delivered in a wooden case. Optional accessories include an electrostatic actuator, various adapters, a windscreen, and accredited calibration services.
Graphical Data: The document includes typical frequency response graphs at various angles and frequencies, illustrating the capsule's performance across its operational range.

Microphone Capsule MK 255-1

MK 255 1/2“ Microphone Capsule for free-field application • WS2F acc. IEC 61094-4 • free-field • 3,5 Hz to 20 kHz • 15 dBA to 149 dB • prepolarized The 1/2“ microphone capsule MK 255 has a freefield response and is therefore optimized for correct acoustic measurements under free-field conditions with 0 degree incidence. The equalization of the static air pressure is by means of a capillary to the preamplifier (rearvented). The microphone capsule is suitable for sound level meters of Type 1 acc. IEC 61672.
