Standard EN-IEC 60118-4 se uporablja za sisteme z avdio-frekvenčno indukcijsko zanko, ki proizvajajo izmenično magnetno polje pri zvočnih frekvencah in ki so namenjeni proizvajanju vhodnih signalov za slušne pripomočke s tuljavo, ki sprejema indukcijske signale (teletuljava). Standard predvideva, da so slušni aparati, s katerimi se uporablja, v skladu z vsemi ustreznimi deli standarda IEC 60118. Ta standard določa zahteve za jakost polja v avdio-frekvenčnih indukcijskih zankah za namene slušnih pripomočkov, ki bo omogočala ustrezno razmerje med signalom in šumom, ne da bi prišlo do preobremenitve slušnega pripomočka. Standard prav tako določa minimalne zahteve za frekvenčni odziv za sprejemljivo razumljivost. Določene so metode za merjenje jakosti magnetnega polja in podane so informacije o primerni merilni opremi (glej dodatek B), informacije, namenjene operaterju in uporabnikom sistema (glej dodatek C) ter drugi pomembni vidiki. Ta standard ne določa zahtev za ojačevalnike z zančnim gonilnikom ali sorodne mikrofone ali vire zvočnih signalov, ki so zajeti v standardu IEC 62489-1, ali za jakost polja, ki jo ustvari oprema, kot na primer telefonska slušalka, zajeta v standardu ITU-T P.370.

Electroacoustics - Simulators of human head and ear - Part 7: Head and torso simulator for the measurement of sound sources close to the ear
SIST EN IEC 60318-7:2023

This part of IEC 60318 describes a head and torso simulator, or manikin, intended for the measurement of sound sources placed close to the ear in the frequency range from 100 Hz to 16 000 Hz. The manikin described in this part of IEC 60318 is intended for airborne acoustic measurements only. It is not suitable for measurements which depend upon vibration transmission paths such as bone conduction, or for measurements requiring the simulation of bone or tissue. This document specifies the manikin in terms of both its geometrical dimensions and its acoustical properties. For conformance with this document, a manikin shall be compliant with both sets of specifications.

Electroacoustics - Simulators of human head and ear - Part 8: Acoustic coupler for high-frequency measurements of hearing aids and earphones coupled to the ear by means of ear inserts
SIST EN IEC 60318-8:2022

IEC 60318-8:2022 describes an acoustic coupler for loading a hearing aid or insert earphone with a specified acoustic impedance when testing its acoustic performance, in the frequency range up to 16 kHz. It is suitable for air-conduction hearing aids and earphones, coupled to the ear by means of ear inserts, earmoulds or similar devices. The acoustic coupler does not simulate the human ear. However, it has an effective volume of only 0,4 cm3, which is small enough not to produce significant resonances in the coupler in the frequency range below 16 kHz. Therefore, it will load the earphone with a known acoustic impedance, which allows repeatable measurements with low uncertainty to be obtained on earphones used in extended high-frequency audiometry.

Electroacoustics - Hearing aids - Part 16: Definition and verification of hearing aid features
SIST EN IEC 60118-16:2022

This part of IEC 60118 gives definitions for common hearing aid features such as noise reduction or feedback reduction, etc. Only acoustical inputs are considered. Binaural features are currently not covered in this document. In addition, measurement procedures are described to verify hearing aid features. The objective is not to evaluate the performance of features but to verify their existence and functionality. Furthermore, definitions and procedures are kept as general as possible so that this document can be applied to various types of hearing aids, e.g. air conduction hearing aids or bone conduction hearing aids. To this end, the general definition for hearing aid of IEC 60118-0:2015 is adopted, and this document does not refer to any specific ear simulator or acoustic coupler but uses a general definition of a coupler. However, if a general view is not applicable or leads to unclear or complex wording, the situation for an air conduction hearing aid is considered, only. Nevertheless, in Clause 4, an explanation is given on how this document can be applied to hearing aids which do not use air conduction.

Electroacoustics - Hearing aids - Part 9: Methods of measurement of the performance characteristics of bone conduction hearing aids
SIST EN IEC 60118-9:2020

IEC 60118-9:2019 specifies methods for the measurement of bone conduction hearing aid characteristics. The methods described will produce a suitable basis for the exchange of information or for direct comparison of the electroacoustical characteristics of bone conduction hearing aids. These methods are chosen to be practical and reproducible and are based on selected fixed parameters. The results obtained by the methods specified in this document express the performance under the conditions of measurement; however, the performance of the hearing aid under practical conditions of use will depend upon a number of factors (e.g. effective load impedance, environmental conditions, acoustical environment, etc.). This document defines methods of measurement of characteristics of bone conduction hearing aids both for • transcutaneously coupled devices measured on a mechanical coupler, meeting the requirements of IEC 60318-6, and • bone coupled/bone anchored devices measured on a skull simulator. IEC 60118-9:2019 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1985. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) includes bone coupled devices measured on a skull simulator; b) measurement frequency range increased to 8 000 Hz for bone coupled devices.
