Introduction      

Arrays of sensors are more than only a number of individual probes mounted together.
Apart from the acquisition, an array application solution consists of a three basic elements:
  • The method of positioning the sensors

  • The particular sensor used

  • The electrical connections

The method of position the sensors

There are numerous methods to configure an array of sensors. The probes can be mounted in a grid so that handheld array is created, it is also possible to put them on a surface as is done in source path contribution methods. Some solutions are listed below:

To Hand Held array To PU match array  To USP mini array      To Scattered array To Free grid configuration

 

The particular sensor used

The PU-mini, PU-match and the USP-mini are used in array configurations most often.

The electrical connections

Obviously, the number of cables and connectors increase if a lot of sensors are used.
The change of making mistakes, mixups and set up time increase with that. To minimize this,
Microflown technologies designes therefore special preamplifiers, multipin conmnectors and BNC breakout boxes that go to the dedicated frontends (24channel, 96channel).
