Akustik - Simulatoren des menschlichen Kopfes und Ohres - Teil 1: Ohrsimulator zur Kalibrierung von supra-auralen und circumauralen Kopfhörern (IEC 60318-1:2009); Deutsche Fassung EN 60318-1:2009
Overview
This part of IEC 60318 specifies an ear simulator for the measurement of supra-aural and circumaural earphones (used for example in audiometry and telephonometry) applied to the ear without acoustical leakage, in the frequency range from 20 Hz to 10 kHz. The same device can be used as an acoustic coupler at additional frequencies up to 16 kHz. The responsible Committee is Joint Subcommittee GUK 821.6 "Hörgeräte und audiometrische Messtechnik" ("Hearing aids and audiometric measurements") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
