Directional Lapel Clip Microph one

The Williams AV MIC 054 is a black directional lapel microphone designed for use with the PFM/PPA T46 transmitter. It combines a mono, uni-directional pickup pattern with an electret condenser element, a 3.5 mm mono plug, and a 39-inch cord. Its published specifications include an 80 Hz–18 kHz frequency response, 600 Ω nominal impedance at 1 kHz, and a weight of 20 g (0.7 oz).

Ideal Use Cases

The MIC 054 is intended for systems that require a wearable, directional microphone connected to a compatible PFM/PPA T46 transmitter. Its lapel format places the microphone near the person speaking, while the 39-inch cord provides a defined cable length between the microphone and transmitter. The uni-directional pickup pattern makes this model appropriate when directional voice pickup is preferred over an omnidirectional pattern.

It is also a practical selection for replacing or standardizing microphones in an existing setup that already uses the MIC 054, CLP 090 microphone clip, or WND 009 windscreen. The black finish supports a discreet appearance when worn with dark clothing or integrated into an established audio system.

Why Choose This Model

The MIC 054 provides clearly documented electrical, acoustic, and physical specifications for compatibility planning. Its electret condenser element has a listed sensitivity of 68 dB ± 4 dB, while the nominal impedance is 600 Ω at 1 kHz. The microphone operates from 1–10 VDC and is specifically listed as not phantom powered.

At 20 g (0.7 oz), the microphone has a compact published weight suited to its lapel configuration. The fixed 3.5 mm mono plug identifies the required audio connection, eliminating uncertainty about plug size or stereo wiring. WEEE and RoHS approvals are also listed for this model.

Installation and Integration

Integration centers on the MIC 054’s 3.5 mm mono plug and its stated compatibility with the PFM/PPA T46 transmitter. Before installation, confirm that the intended transmitter and input match the specified mono connector and the microphone’s 1–10 VDC operating range. The microphone is not specified for phantom power.

For lapel attachment, Williams AV identifies the CLP 090 microphone clip. The published replacement windscreen is the WND 009. These identifiers simplify selection when a compatible clip or windscreen is needed for installation or ongoing service. The 39-inch cord should be considered when planning microphone placement and transmitter position. No additional in-box accessories are specified in the supplied product data.

Performance Highlights

• Electret condenser microphone element
• Mono, uni-directional pickup pattern
• 80 Hz–18 kHz frequency response
• 68 dB ± 4 dB listed sensitivity
• 600 Ω nominal impedance at 1 kHz
• 1–10 VDC operating voltage
• 3.5 mm mono plug
• 39-inch attached cord
• 20 g (0.7 oz) published weight

Together, these specifications define a focused lapel microphone for a known Williams AV transmitter application. The published frequency range extends from 80 Hz through 18 kHz, while the uni-directional pattern distinguishes its pickup behavior from lapel microphones built around an omnidirectional element.

What Makes It Different

The MIC 054 is defined by a specific combination of directional pickup, mono connectivity, and PFM/PPA T46 compatibility. Rather than leaving replacement components unidentified, the product data names both the WND 009 replacement windscreen and CLP 090 replacement lapel clip. That component-level information is useful when maintaining a consistent installation.

Its electrical requirements are equally explicit: 1–10 VDC operation, no phantom power, and 600 Ω nominal impedance at 1 kHz. The 3.5 mm mono termination and fixed 39-inch cord further distinguish the exact configuration being supplied.

Final Assessment

The Williams AV MIC 054 is a precisely specified directional lapel microphone for compatible PFM/PPA T46 transmitter systems. Buyers receive a black, mono electret condenser model with a uni-directional pattern, 3.5 mm plug, 39-inch cord, and 80 Hz–18 kHz response. Its documented replacement windscreen and lapel clip references make it especially straightforward to identify the supporting parts required for continued use. The manufacturer’s listed warranty period is 90 days.
