Binary Acoustic Technology AR180-EXT

The AR180-EXT is a professional quality ultrasonic receiver that is designed for ultrasonic recording and acoustic analysis. It employs a directional, wide bandwidth ultrasonic element along with ultrasonic to digital conversion technology to produce a high quality, digitally sampled, acoustic stream that is injected directly into a laptop computer or field recorder to perform ultrasonic monitoring, and analysis. The AR180-EXT system is specifically designed for bat monitoring applications which require that the detector is mounted quite a distance away from the recording device. The system consists of an ultrasonic microphone element and a ultrasonic digitizer unit. The two units are separable up to 250 feet and are connected using industry standard CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable. The AR180-EXT is shipped with a 20 foot cable.  Longer cables can also be supplied, but with an additional charge  Product Highlights Extendable microphone element Direct digital conversion technology 1KHz to 180 KHz operating range High sensitivity High speed USB 2.0 interface Durable aluminum enclosure 1/4-20 camera mount Price includes a 20 foot Cable AR180-EXT is better at: Applications where a long cable run is necessary between the microphone element and the actual recorder or computer. Active recording/viewing live full spectrum activity, and then selectively recording only the bat pass of interest. Educational demos; people are entranced by the "campfire effect" of watching bat activity go by live. Passive monitoring; the AR180EXT is housed in a robust weatherproof housing more appropriate for inclement weather. Orient this microphone horizontally to minimize moisture into the microphone element. Raise this microphone as far as possible from all obstructions (~12'+ above ground) and extend it into the airspce you intend to monitor.
