Architects’ and Engineers’ Specifi cations
The microphone shall be the Crown Model PCC-
130SW or equivalent. The microphone shall be
a half-supercardioid electret condenser type.
The microphone shall employ the principle
of phase coherency achieved by mounting a
small-diameter element very near a boundary,
thus eliminating comb fi ltering in the audible
spectrum. The microphone will exhibit excellent
off-axis response and gain-before-feedback.
A 15-foot (4.6 m), two-conductor shielded
cable with TA3F and A3M connectors shall be
supplied with the microphone. As an option,
the microphone may be obtained with a bot-
tom-mounted stereo phone plug (model PCC-
130SW/SPP, no cable provided).
Nominal sensitivity shall be 22 mV/Pa. Maxi-
mum SPL shall be 120 dB SPL for 3% THD.
Equivalent noise shall be 22 dBA nominal.
Frequency response shall be 50 Hz to 20,000
Hz with a uniform off-axis response, over 20 dB
down at the rear nulls.
The PCC-130SW shall have a silent operating
membrane switch which can be confi gured for
push on/off, momentary on or momentary off
operation. The Crown Model PCC-130SW is
specifi ed.
Operation
If you want to use 12 to 18 V phantom power,
it should be supplied through a center-tapped
transformer (such as in the Crown PH-1A phan-
tom supply) or directly from your mixer. This
will ensure 70 dB of off-attenuation.
Typical placement for each microphone is at
arm’s length from the user. Either place one
microphone in front of each person or one
between every two people. The front of the mi-
crophone is indicated by an arrow on the bottom
of the base plate.
Press near the center of the switch. The micro-
phone will switch on or off according to how
you set the slide switch. When the mic is on, the
LED in the housing is lit.
The PCC-130SW includes two keyhole slots in
its base to accept mounting screws.
1. Punch out the keyholes marked on the label
underneath the base plate (use a razor blade,
small screwdriver, etc.).
2. Using the template (Fig. 6), mark the loca-
tion of two holes in the table where you want to
mount the mic. These holes are 1.6 inch (4.064
cm.) apart, center-to-center. They are 1.7 inch
(4.318 cm) from the rear of the mic.
If your model is the SPP type install ¼-inch
(6.35-mm) phone jacks in your table. Fig. 5
shows the optimum jack wiper locations.
