The 47-limit consists of just intonation intervals whose ratios contain no prime factors higher than 47. It is the 15th prime limit and is a superset of the 43-limit and a subset of the 53-limit.

These things are contained by the 47-limit, but not the 43-limit:

It is the highest prime limit that can be represented with Helmholtz–Ellis notation.
