Low Noise Sea-State Zero Hydrophone
The TC4032 general purpose hydrophone offers a high sensitivity, low noise and a flat frequency response over a wide frequency range.
The high sensitivity and acoustic characteristics makes TC4032 capable of producing absolute sound measurements and detecting even very weak signals at levels below “Sea State 0”.
The TC4032 incorporates an electrostatically shielded highly sensitive piezoelectric element connected to an integral lownoise 10dB preamplifier. The TC4032 preamplifier is capable
of driving long cables of more than 1,000 meters, and the preamplifier features an insert calibration facility.
Per default the amplifier is provided with differential output. The differential output is an advantage where long cables are used in an electrically noisy environment. For use in single ended mode: Use positive output pin together with GND.
Versions with different filter characteristics are available:
4032-1: 5Hz to 120kHz and 4032-2: 1Hz to 120kHz
