1.0 Introduction 

Congratulations on the purchase of a quality, ICP

 Microphone. In order to ensure the highest 

level of performance for this product, we recommend that you follow the basic installation and 
operation procedures in this guide. By following these procedures, along with utilizing this 
Microphone in conjunction with other PCB equipment (Signal Controllers, Power Supplies, 
Cables, Calibrators, etc.), you will ensure years of trouble-free usage. If, after reading this 
manual, you have additional questions concerning the Microphone or its application, feel free to 
call a factory Application Engineer at 716-684-0001, or your nearest PCB Sales Representative. 

2.0 Product Description 

The PCB 130 series of Array Microphones are prepolarized, condenser microphones coupled 
with ICP

 sensor powered preamplifiers and are thus referred to as ICP

 microphones. This 

eliminates the need to purchase a separate preamplifier. The 130 series microphones provide an 
extremely cost-effective method for large channel count sound pressure measurements. Typical 
applications include sound pressure mapping, acoustic mode analysis, near-field acoustic 
holography, and vibro-acoustic testing, along with other applications.
