Issue Details

I want to purchase an IEPE microphone on the NI website, but the NI Part Numbers differ from the models found in the G.R.A.S. specifications manuals. How do I know what is the G.R.A.S. model for each of the NI IEPE Measurement Microphones so I can compare the specifications to chose the right microphone for my application?

The table below shows the NI Part Number, product description and GRAS model for each one of the NI IEPE Measurement Microphones.
