  • Page 4: Technical Description

    TeChnICal DesCrIPTIOn The cartridge DPA 400 and 4006 are omnidirectional (pressure) microphones that use a 1 6 mm diameter prepolarized condenser cartridge. The cartridge has low self noise (typical 1 5 dB(A) re. 0 µPa) and high sensitivity (400 and 4006-TL: 40 mV/Pa and 4006: 10 mV/Pa).

  • Page 6 The Free-field Grid, silver The DD05 1 Free-field Grid on the microphone cartridge is designed to have a linear on-axis frequency response for near-field applications (see Fig.  for frequency responses measured with the Free-field Grid). The grid is factory mounted but can be exchanged with the DD097 Diffuse-field Grid or the UA0777 Nose Cone.
  • Page 7 acoustic Pressure equalizers Available as optional acoustical attachments are also the APEs – Acoustic Pressure Equalizers. The APEs use diffraction to passively modify the sound field near the microphone diaphragm, thus changing the microphone’s frequency response and, in particular, the polar response (see Fig. 1 4 and Fig. 1 5) without adding any electrical noise to the recording.

    The microphone cartridge is tightly secured to the main body housing, and no attempt should be made to remove it. If a replacement cartridge is required, contact your local DPA Microphones representative. DPA 400, 4006 and 4006-TL are supplied with an additional Diffuse-field Grid DD097 (see “Technical Description”...
  • Page 20 Do not touch the diaphragm Fig. 1 6. Be careful to avoid any contact with the diaphragm. When changing grids, be very careful to avoid any contact with the diaphragm. Over time a visible dust layer can build up on the diaphragm. Since the mass added is extremely small and the influence on the frequency response is negli- gible, the dust will not change the characteristics of the microphone.
  • Page 21 Use OF aCOUsTIC PressUre eqUalIzers Acoustic Pressure Equalizers are only to be used with the standard silver protec- tion grid DD05 1. Do not try to fit APEs on Nose Cone UA0777. The microphone must be inserted into the APE from the hole opposite to the O-ring.
