Thermoacoustical Sensor

Thermoacoustical sensor TAS-PM-0.5 (low intensity) and TAS-PA-0.5 (high intensity)

Thermoacoustical sensor – low intensity

Efficient and user-friendly
The Thermoacoustic Sensor (low intensity) enables direct measurement of the ISPTA (spatially averaged, temporally averaged intensity value) – without the need for a trigger signal. Its ease of use facilitates everyday laboratory work, while its cost-effective design offers an economical solution for reliable measurements.
