The small size make it possible to operate close to the source and in areas with limited space. With excellent high frequency resolution it is the perfect choice for searching for squeak and rattle noises and other abnormal noises from for example industrial products.

The system is equipped with 3 array sizes with up to 384 microphones available and real time virtual microphone. No extra acquisition unit needed for the digital microphones. The system is controlled by an intuitive software which can be plug and play within 5 minutes.

The Norsonic Nor848A sets a new standard for acoustical cameras. The large number of microphones eliminates the problems of ghost-spots, compared to traditional acoustical cameras where the relatively low number of microphones increases the side lobe effect, resulting in the so called ghost-spot effect. You measure a non-existing source. The Nor848A software is extremely intuitive and easy to use. Just after a few minutes of training, the user is able to operate the system and do real measurements. Three camera frontends are available.

A 0.4m array with 128 microphones, a 1 meter array holding 256 microphones and a 1.6 meter array with 384 microphones! The system enables the user to perform noise analysis with a clear view of the spatial distribution of the sound in real time! The system is easy to set up in the field. Just power the self-contained unit from mains or battery and connect the LAN cable to the computer. The system is ready to measure in just a few minutes after entering the site.
